TOP 5: Koleda
Though Koleda is classified as a Defensive unit, she also brings solid rapid-switch Break capabilities. Her shield strength scales with Impact, making her an all-rounder in various scenarios.
Her signature W-Engine, Rushing Fang, provides a rare and powerful Impact boost — currently the only Defense-type W-Engine that does so. On top of that, it offers:
+30% Shield Value
+18% All Damage (near full uptime)
+12% Disruption increase
This allows Koleda to handle high-pressure environments with ease and gives her team-wide utility. Without this W-Engine, she’s often forced to use Break-type engines instead — far from optimal.
TOP 4: Ben Bigger (Trigger)
As a Break unit in pursuit comps, Trigger is surprisingly flexible. He deals decent off-field damage and provides full-phase Disruption Vulnerability, which pairs extremely well with on-field DPS characters. What’s more, he can contribute significant damage even before the enemy is unbalanced.
Trigger’s performance scales heavily with Crit Rate — you’ll need over 90% Crit to fully benefit from his transformation mechanic. That’s where his signature W-Engine, Spectral Glaze, comes in:
Boosts Crit Rate (core requirement)
Adds Defense Reduction
Grants in-combat Impact bonus
It covers everything Trigger needs — Crit, utility, and Break power. Since no other W-Engine enables him to hit 90% Crit reliably, Spectral Glaze is a top-priority pull.
TOP 3: Anby (Agent Zero)
After Trigger’s release, Anby has become a central figure in pursuit-based teams. Her signature mechanic converts her own Crit Damage into bonus Pursuit Crit Damage for the entire squad — incredibly potent.
Her W-Engine, Pure Sacrifice, is built to fully support this:
Offers massive Crit Damage boosts (108% at R1!)
Adds +20% Electric Damage when fully stacked
This weapon is a pursuit team staple, and in terms of system-level team enhancement, it's easily on par with even Miyabi’s signature gear.
TOP 2: Ellen
Ellen is currently the second-strongest main DPS in the game, just behind Miyabi. Her playstyle is flexible — relying on frequent Chain Attacks and Ultimates — and she can slot into both burst-break teams and solo-core comps.
While the A-rank W-Engine Sulfur Stone is decent for her, Heartstring Nocturne, her signature, is on another level:
Boosts Crit Rate and Crit Damage
Allows her Chain/Ultimate skills to ignore 25% Fire Resistance
Has the highest number of premium stats among all current W-Engines
Not only is it her best-in-slot, it’s also top-tier for 11 and other Attack units — extremely versatile.
TOP 1: Miyabi
Miyabi is the undisputed queen of DPS in Zenless Zone Zero. Although she’s classified as an Anomaly unit, her main output comes from direct damage, and most Anomaly W-Engines don’t suit her at all.
Her signature W-Engine, Falling Star Palace, provides:
Crit Rate to help hit the 80% benchmark for transformation
+50% Crit Damage at R1
+40% Damage after stacking Strong E or Anomaly twice
These stats are absolutely insane, and no alternative W-Engine comes close. If you want to maximize Miyabi, this weapon is a must-have — hands down the most valuable signature in the game right now.
Conclusion
Right now, the most recommended signature W-Engines to pull are:
Miyabi
Ellen
Anby
They’re all top-tier DPS characters and benefit massively from their exclusives. Meanwhile, Trigger and Koleda also see huge improvements due to their stat-hungry and hybrid playstyles.
Of course, other signatures can offer meaningful boosts too — if you’re a fan of a character, don’t hesitate to pick them up.
