To build Velina effectively in Zenless Zone Zero, prioritize scaling her Core Passive with Energy Regen and Anomaly Proficiency, equip the Joyau Doré W-Engine, and pair her with complementary agents like Yuzuha or Promeia for optimized team compositions.
Velina Core Mechanics
Velina is a hybrid damage dealer and enabler who specializes in generating Windbloom through her EX Specials and consuming it to summon cyclones. These cyclones deal considerable Wind DMG, group enemies, and enhance Anomaly application. Her Core Passive scales with Energy Regen and Anomaly Mastery, making these stats integral to her performance. While Velina lacks off-field capabilities, she plays an active role in rotations by deploying cyclones and enabling other team members.
Velina's W-Engine Options
comparison
Best Option:
Joyau Doré W-Engine is Velina's signature item and best-in-slot, offering 60% Energy Regen and 70 Anomaly Proficiency. Its passive increases DMG for her Vortex and Windswept abilities while benefiting the entire squad with additional Anomaly Proficiency.
Alternative Option:
Flamemaker Shaker provides off-field Energy Regen and a stacking DMG bonus that synergizes with her EX Specials. Though slightly less optimized than Joyau Doré, it remains a strong alternative.
Other Options:
Boisterous Echoes, Electro Lip-Gloss, Weeping Gemini, and other event-based W-Engines can provide reliable boosts to Anomaly Proficiency, ATK%, or DMG, but they are less effective due to weaker synergy with Velina's kit.

- Consider Astral Voice or Freedom Blues as alternatives if Wuthering Salon is unavailable, though their performance will be reduced.
- For 2-piece sets, prioritize Energy Regen bonuses like Moonlight Lullaby or Swing Jazz to complement her Core Passive scaling.
