Mistakes to avoid and best way to use

While Battery Charge is an extremely important resource in Zenless Zone Zero. One mistake that you should avoid when spending it is farming unnecessary materials. Since there are a number of Agents who require dissimilar resources, it is best to farm the items that you actually need.

Another thing you shouldn’t do is refill your Battery Charge with Polychrome since you need it to purchase the Encrypted Master Tapes to roll for the characters you desire.

Since there are multiple activities where you can spend this resource, it is best to take a quick look at your inventory before proceeding to farm anything.

The game features multiple Agents, W-Engines, Notorious Hunts, Drive Discs, and more. To level these items up, you will need the correct materials. Since you can farm most of these items using Battery Charge, look at the materials you need before spending them in random places.

When starting the game, you should keep various resources especially, Investigator Logs at your disposal so you can level up multiple Agents in Zenless Zone Zero.
