ZZZ Top Up

Zenless Zone Zero snagged the Partner Award in 2024 and just leveled up to the Grand Award in 2025. Here's your complete trophy hunting roadmap, crafted from 200+ hours of hands-on gameplay and plenty of trial-and-error moments.

The Zenless Zone Zero 2.5 Special Program drops December 26, 2025, at 6 AM ET—and honestly, it's packed. We're getting two new S-Rank agents (Ye Shunguang and Zhao), fresh redemption codes worth 300 Polychrome, plus Version 2.5 launches December 30. But here's what caught my attention: the first real PvE co-op mode and some serious meta shifts toward Ice and Physical damage that experienced players have been waiting for.

Here's the bottom line: Polychrome is your ticket to getting the characters you want in Zenless Zone Zero. With 160 Polychrome buying you one pull, F2P players can realistically earn 15-20 pulls monthly if they stay consistent. The smart money goes toward limited banners with their 180-pull safety net, though if you're spending real cash, the Inter-Knot Membership gives you the best bang for your buck at roughly 27 cents per pull.

Garden of Plenty runs December 5-15, 2025, offering double rewards from Crimson and Golden Calyx domains. This 11-day event provides maximum material farming efficiency before version 3.8 launches December 16, 2025. Players can maximize 240 daily Trailblaze Power to stockpile materials for character builds and upcoming releases.

Garden of Plenty is Honkai Star Rail's premier double-reward farming event that activates periodically, offering doubled materials from Golden and Crimson Calyx challenges. During active periods, players earn twice the character EXP materials, Light Cone EXP materials, Credits, and Path-specific ascension materials for 10 Trailblaze Power per run, with a daily limit of 12 rounds (120 Power total). Requires completion of Bud of Memories mission and scales rewards based on Equilibrium Level.

Here's the thing about Calyx double drop events in Honkai Star Rail – they're absolute game-changers if you know how to work them. These limited-time windows literally double your rewards from Golden and Crimson Calyx challenges, and the next confirmed event runs December 5-15, 2025. We're talking double Character EXP, Light Cone EXP, Credits, and those precious Trace Materials. Each run still costs just 10 Trailblaze Power, and you can chain up to 6 consecutive battles. Smart power management during these 10-day windows? It can accelerate your character progression by weeks.
