Zenless Zone Zero version 2.2 brings a new S-rank character into the spotlight—Orpheus. Known for her fire-themed attacks and slash combat style, Orpheus is designed for fast, aggressive gameplay. With strong damage output and a range of invincibility skills, she stands out as a powerful attacker who can stay in the fight longer than most. This information is leak by a leaker name Dim, which is quite a humor.
Orpheus Stat Overview and Role
Orpheus is built for offense, but she doesn’t lack durability. She comes with 7,788 base HP, 929 attack, and 612 defense. Her 5% crit rate and 50% crit damage make her a good candidate for crit builds. She also has 92 Anomaly Mastery and 90 Proficiency, which help her trigger and benefit from status effects more often. Her 1.56 energy regen rate means she can use her skills often, keeping the pressure on enemies.
1. Basic and Dodge Attacks
Her main combo, High-Pressure Flamethrower, is a five-hit slash sequence that ends with a strong fire attack. She can dodge using Flickering Flame, which gives her a moment of invincibility. If timed right, her dodge leads to a counter with Assault Command, delivering fire-based counter damage while making her briefly invincible.
2. Special and Passive Skills
Orpheus’s special attacks add flexibility to her kit. Hot Flooded Full Chamber is a heavy thrust-and-tail fire attack that resists interruption. Corrosive Light Flash is a passive laser follow-up triggered by allies’ attacks—it also restores 20 Heat every five seconds. These mechanics help her keep her skills active while staying on the move.
3. EX Special and Chain Attacks
Her EX abilities are where she really shines. Watch Your Step combines laser and fireblade attacks with invincibility and Heat recovery. Scorching Vortex deals damage off-field while keeping her invincible and restoring 30 Heat. Her Charge Laser Shot releases a laser that changes based on heat level, finishing with either a fire blade or chain attack. If heat is maxed, she gains damage reduction or even more invincibility.
Her chain attack, Overheated Barrel, spins through enemies, dealing fire damage and restoring Heat. If used after a fully charged laser, it turns into Modified Overheated Barrel, an enhanced version with more impact.
4. Ultimate Skill
Her ultimate, Dancing with Fire, activates at full Decibel. It’s a spinning laser flurry that deals huge damage with full invincibility. There’s also a jump and assist window that lets allies extend the move’s duration, giving her more time to melt through enemies. Orpheus also has a quick assist called Scorching Slash, delivering a burst of fire and physical damage when she supports an ally.
In short, Orpheus offers fast combos, fire-based damage, and great survivability, making her a powerful addition to any lineup in Zenless Zone Zero version 2.2. If you’re looking for a high-impact character who brings both style and substance to your squad, Orpheus is definitely worth considering in this update.
