ZZZ 3.2 Banners: Claret & Nangong Yu Pull Guide

Zenless Zone Zero's Version 3.2 update is here, and with it come two new limited S-Rank Agents: Claret (Electric – Armorer) and Nangong Yu (Ether – Stun). Both arrive with their signature W-Engines, and the patch also brings a fresh audition event. If you're planning your Polychrome spending, this guide breaks down the schedules, featured units, and who benefits most from pulling.

For the latest Zenless Zone Zero news and guides, you're in the right place. Let's dive into what Version 3.2 has in store.

Should You Pull?

Pull for Claret if…

• You need a strong Electric damage dealer with the new Armorer specialty.
• You're building an Electric-focused team and want a modern S-Rank option.
• You have resources saved and enjoy collecting limited Agents.

Pull for Nangong Yu if…

• Your roster lacks a reliable Stun unit, especially one that deals Ether damage.
• You want to enable Ether-based team compositions.
• You're a collector aiming for every limited character.

Skip if…

• You already have a well-built Electric or Stun roster and prefer saving for future patches.
• Your Polychrome reserves are low and you're not ready to commit to the 50/50.

Save for…

• If neither character fits your current teams, consider saving for upcoming banners. Not stated in official materials which Agents will appear next, so keep an eye on future announcements.

Who Benefits Most

• New Players: Both Claret and Nangong Yu are strong additions, but Nangong Yu's Stun utility can help in early game content. The audition stage also gives you a free trial to test them.
• Midgame Players: If you're lacking a dedicated Stun or Electric DPS, these banners fill gaps efficiently.
• Min-Spend / F2P: Focus on one banner. The shared pity across Exclusive Channels means you can switch if you're close to pity, but spreading pulls thin is risky.
• Collectors: Both limited Agents and their W-Engines are exclusive to this patch, so if you want them, this is your only window for now.

Events and Rewards

The Final Callback – Audition Stage

• Requirements: Reach Inter-Knot Lv. 8 and unlock the Event feature in the Main Story Prologue – Intermission.
• Duration: After the Version 3.2 update until 2026-09-30 11:59 (server time).
• Details: Try out Claret and Nangong Yu in audition stages. Clear each stage for the first time to claim rewards on the results screen.

This is a low-effort way to earn extra Polychrome and test the new Agents before committing your pulls.

Teams and Synergies

While official team recommendations are not stated in official materials, we can infer some synergies based on the Agents' elements and roles.

• Claret (Electric – Armorer): Likely pairs well with other Electric units like Anton for resonance bonuses. The Armorer specialty suggests a defensive or counter-based playstyle, so consider supports that boost survivability.
• Nangong Yu (Ether – Stun): Stun units are valuable in any team. Ether damage can help against enemies weak to that element. Pair with a strong DPS to capitalize on the stun window.

Preparation Checklist

• Save Polychrome: If you plan to pull, ensure you have enough for the 50/50 and potential hard pity.
• Complete the Audition Stage: Unlock it early to grab the rewards.
• Check Your Pity: Since pity carries over across Exclusive Channels, know where you stand before pulling.
• Farm Materials: Not stated in official materials which ascension materials Claret and Nangong Yu need, but you can pre-farm common enemy drops.

Community Signals

No official community events or streams have been announced for Version 3.2 beyond the banner and audition stage. Keep an eye on official channels for any surprises.

Final Thoughts

Version 3.2 gives players two distinct choices: Claret for Electric damage and Nangong Yu for Ether Stun support. Both are limited, so plan your pulls carefully. The audition stage is a nice bonus to test them out risk-free. For more Zenless Zone Zero coverage, including graphics upgrades and outfit news, explore our Zenless Zone Zero guides.
