Lycaon Promotion and Skill Materials Farming Guide
In Zenless Zone Zero, all materials can be obtained through the VR Device. You'll find this in the Random Play Store, and you can customize the enemies for the drops that you need! This allows you to gather everything in a single run.
Stun Certification Seals & Freeze Chips
Combat Simulation is where you get your upgrade materials, and you can farm the materials you need here. These are necessary for promoting Agents, modifying W-Engines, and enhancing character skills.
The rewards you receive depend on the enemy lineups, including Lycaon's Promotion Materials (Certification Seals: Basic/Advanced/Pioneer's) and Skill Materials (Freeze Chips: Basic/Advanced/Specialized).
Higher Dimensional Data - Ethereal Pursuit
To upgrade Lycaon's core skills, you'll need to complete Expert Challenges. These combine elements of Combat Simulation and Reckless Challenge, as you'll find elite enemies with increased difficulty to fight.
This is where you can prime your characters for advanced development. So, get those Expert Challenges to get the materials needed to upgrade Lycaon's core skills!
Additionally, Zenless Zone Zero offers drinks through the Sixth Street Coffee Shop which can boost your VR Device farming efficiency. By increasing the drop rate for specific materials (e.g., Ascension materials), these coffee drinks allow you to target Lycaon's Promotion and Skill materials more effectively.
Each drink gives you 60 free Battery Cost which is essential for VR challenges. The costs of these drinks are offset, while these coffees come with a cost, the increased material yield can significantly offset it.
