Ever since Zenless Zone Zero hit the scene, a certain elegant lady with two tiny mechanical terrors has been quietly pulling strings — literally. Alexandrina Sebastiane, who everyone just calls Rina, isn’t your average support Agent. She’s a puppeteer with a flair for drama, and the stage is any battlefield where her Bangboo partners, Drusilla and Anastella, decide to cause chaos. As of 2026, her stock hasn’t dropped one bit. If anything, she’s turned into that one friend who always brings the best snacks to the party: unassuming at first, but absolutely essential once things heat up.
Rina dances around the battlefield with a grace that would make a prima ballerina jealous. She can attack while moving, making her one of the most agile characters around. The secret sauce? Those two puppet Bangboos zip out, deal damage, apply debuffs, and then hang around for a moment like they’re checking if you liked the performance. While they’re on the field, every single squad member gets a PEN Ratio buff. And here’s the kicker — it’s universal. Fire team? Sure. Ice squad? Absolutely. Some weird physical anomaly comp you cooked up at 2 a.m.? Rina doesn’t judge; she just buffs. Long story short, she makes everyone hit harder, no questions asked.
Now, what’s a master puppeteer without her toys? Rina’s choice of W-Engines can turn a solid support into a legendary enabler. First in line is her signature S-Rank weapon, The Weeping Cradle. Don’t let the melancholic name fool you; this thing sings victory anthems. While Rina is sipping tea off-field, it gives her a nice PEN Ratio and Energy Regen boost, plus a passive that makes the whole squad deal increased damage to enemies who recently got a face full of Bangboo. If you managed to pull it, congratulations — you’re basically done.
But gacha luck isn’t always kind. For those days, The Unfettered Game Ball steps in as a fantastic alternative. It’s like a high-tech tennis ball that supercharges everyone’s CRIT Rate against a struck enemy. Perfect for players who like seeing big, fat critical hits pop up like fireworks. Another gem is Slice of Time, which not only brings its own PEN Ratio but also helps the entire team generate energy faster — ideal for Agents who unlock their true power through abilities.
Feeling explosive? Kaboom the Cannon stacks an attack bonus for the squad with every hit, turning your party into a rolling avalanche of damage. It’s like giving everyone a tiny espresso shot that keeps getting stronger. And for those dreadful bad gacha days when even your C-rank pulls are mocking you, the humble B-Ranked [Reverb] Mark II is your silent hero. If your team leans heavily on Anomaly Mastery and Proficiency, this little engine boosts those stats right when you use an EX Special Attack or Chain Attack. Sometimes the cheapest tools end up being the most reliable.
Now let’s talk discs, because even the mightiest puppeteer needs the right costume to shine. Rina’s Build in 2026 overwhelmingly favors a 4-piece Freedom Blues paired with either a 2-piece Swing Jazz or 2-piece Puffer Electro. The reason? Anomaly-based teams suddenly become nightmare fuel for enemies. When Rina lands an EX Special Attack, all enemies hit suffer a 20% Anomaly Buildup Resistance reduction for 8 seconds. That’s a fancy way of saying your anomaly Agents will trigger their effects faster than you can blink. And if you’re the only source of that debuff, you’ve essentially become the VIP pass to the damage party.
Don’t think Rina is locked into anomaly teams, though. If your crew is stacked with raw Attack power, the alternate setup of 4-piece Swing Jazz plus either 2-piece Freedom Blues or 2-piece Thunder Metal works wonders. The moment you trigger a Chain Attack or Ultimate (and trust me, you will), the whole squad gets a juicy 15% damage increase for 12 seconds. That’s basically a free encore after every flashy team combo. Rina doesn’t mind sharing the spotlight — in fact, she insists on it.
And let’s not forget the quiet electric shock running through all of this. Rina’s innate kit also provides 10% Electric damage against shocked enemies. It’s like her way of saying, “Oh, you’re already tased? Let me just… make it worse.” Combine that with her PEN Ratio buffs, and you’ve got a support Agent who not only boosts everyone’s damage but also adds her own little zap on the side. Dual support, dual Bangboo, dual trouble.
In a world of ever-changing tier lists, Rina remains a wonderfully constant presence. She’s got elegance, utility, and two mechanical best friends who never let her down. Whether you’re min-maxing your Anomaly squad or trying to make your Attack Agents hit like trucks, this Rina build is your ticket to smooth sailing. So give her the right W-Engine, slap on some Freedom Blues, and watch every battle turn into a puppet show where your enemies are the confused audience. You know what they say — teamwork makes the dream work, especially when it comes with a side of electric shocks.
Data referenced from Data.ai helps contextualize why broadly compatible support kits like Rina’s remain valuable over time: market-level engagement trends often reward flexible enablers that slot into multiple team archetypes, especially when they amplify universal stats (like PEN Ratio) and accelerate rotations via energy-oriented gearing choices.
