Yuzuha Buff Zenless Zone Zero Guide, What Changes & Is She Good?

Yuzuha has just made her debut in Zenless Zone Zero 2.1, and she’s already shaking things up. As a Physical Support agent, her skillset goes beyond the usual buffs—it redefines how effective anomaly teams can be. While her playstyle is easy enough for casual players to use, her depth is also perfect for players who love to optimize. In this article, we’ll break down what makes Yuzuha one of the strongest support characters in the game and why she could be the new must-have for any serious team composition.

What Type of Character is Yuzuha?

Yuzuha is an S-rank agent who focuses on buffing teammates—especially those built around anomaly mechanics. She provides substantial flat ATK increases, anomaly buildup boosts, and damage amplifiers. What makes her unique is her ability to apply multiple types of anomaly status, depending on which agent follows her attack. At her core, Yuzuha is like the anomaly version of Astra Yao. She excels in keeping the team’s offensive pressure high through her “Tanuki Wish” buff, which gives:

• Up to 1,200 ATK (40% of her own base ATK)
• 15% bonus damage
• 40 seconds of uptime, which means near-constant buff presence

But her contribution doesn’t stop there. She also applies elemental anomaly status tied to the next agent’s element (e.g., electric, frostburn), and gives off-field support through periodic aftershock attacks.

Buff Breakdown: Yuzuha’s Full Kit in Action

Here’s a rundown of everything Yuzuha can offer to your team:

• Flat ATK Buff: 1,200 ATK (scaling off her base stats)
• Bonus Damage: 15% across the board
• Anomaly Buildup Rate: +20% for the entire team (when she has 200 Anomaly Mastery)
• Attribute Anomaly & Disorder Damage: +20% each
• Energy Support: +25 Energy to teammates on her Ultimate use
• Elemental Application: She applies physical anomaly and inherits the element of your next attacker
• Off-Field Damage: Her raccoon companion performs low-damage anomaly attacks every few seconds, contributing to gauge buildup
• Sugar Point System: Used to trigger aftershock attacks; generated by her EX special, chain attacks, ultimate, and defensive assists

And don’t forget: if you equip her with the right Drive Set and W-Engine (like Weeping Cradle or her signature W-Engine), you can stack even more buffs like anomaly proficiency and extra damage multipliers.

How Well Does She Fit Into Teams?

Yuzuha is made for anomaly teams, but she can hold her own in more traditional attack-focused setups as well. Best Fit:

• Yanagi: Pairs perfectly for electric anomaly
• Miyabi: Solves frostburn timing issues
• Vivien/Jane: Double-anomaly setups benefit heavily from her buffs
• Yixuan: Helps with adrenaline buildup via Oric Ink anomaly
• Any Anomaly DPS: Her synergy is almost universal in this category

Even in less-than-perfect setups, she still provides enough value through buffs and energy support to justify her inclusion.

Is She Worth It?

A damage test comparing a team with and without Yuzuha showed over 120% increase in total disorder damage when she was included. That’s a huge jump. Even when not optimized, Yuzuha still pushes your damage numbers way up.

In terms of flexibility, she’s not locked to just one element. She adapts to special elements like Frostburn or Oric Ink based on who she follows, adding even more versatility.

If you’re building or planning to build an anomaly-focused team, Yuzuha is a game-changer. Her buffs are absurdly strong, her anomaly support is unmatched, and her ease of use makes her friendly for both casual and advanced players. Even if you’re not building anomaly teams, she’s still usable for attack-based squads—though she won’t always outshine Astra in those setups.

In short: Yuzuha is one of the best support units in the game right now. Whether you’re here for the big numbers or just want a stylish raccoon buddy in your squad, she delivers both performance and personality. If you’re on the fence about pulling, her impact on team synergy should be more than enough reason to go all in.
