ZZZ 2.6 Phase 1 Event Guide: 181 Free Pulls & Rewards

Phase 1 Event Overview

Version 2.6 Phase 1 runs February 6-March 4, 2026 (some sources say February 27—likely regional differences). Sunna debuts as S-Rank Physical Support from Angels of Delusion faction.

Gilded Surprise: Wonderful Boo-ns (February 14-23) delivers 25 total draws via daily logins plus special Bangboo Badge period. Combined with Shiyu Defense and Hollow Zero Operation Matrix, Phase 1 offers one of the most generous reward pools yet.

For players planning pulls, understanding ZZZ W-Engine banner mechanics helps determine if Sunna's signature Cloudcleave Radiance is worth pursuing. BitTopup offers secure Polychrome top-ups with competitive pricing for limited banners.

Event Rewards & Shop Priorities

Master Tape Sources

16 Encrypted Master Tapes from:

• Event milestones (Angels of Delusion, A Harmony of Delusions)
• Monthly login
• Shiyu Defense floors
• Hollow Zero first clears

Master Tapes = 1:1 pull value. Prioritize over materials in shops.

Shop Priority Order

1. Encrypted Master Tapes (direct pull value)
2. Limited cosmetics (never return)
3. W-Engine Energy Modules (progression bottleneck)
4. Senior Investigator Logs (versatile)
5. Drive Disc materials (optimization)
6. Dennies (farmable—worst shop value)

Pan Yinhu Culinary Jewel Outfit: Exclusive to A Harmony of Delusions. Never returns—highest priority for collectors.

Biggest Fan S-Rank Bangboo: If available via event, prioritize over farmable materials.

Team Compositions

F2P Teams

Physical Core:

• Main DPS: Physical dealer
• Support: Defensive buffer
• Utility: Crowd control
• Bangboo: Biggest Fan (50% CRIT Rate, 100% CRIT DMG, 110 Anomaly Mastery)

Elemental Flex:

• Main DPS: Highest-invested Agent
• Sub-DPS: Anomaly specialist
• Support: Healer/shielder
• Bangboo: Faction-matching

Week 1's 5,000 score is achievable with starter teams.

Premium Options

Sunna Physical Team:

• Main DPS: Physical dealer
• Support: Sunna (S-Rank Physical Support)
• Sub-DPS: Anomaly applicator
• Bangboo: Biggest Fan

Sunna's signature Cloudcleave Radiance (713 base ATK, 60% Energy Regen) accelerates ultimate cycling.

Element Synergies

• Physical Vulnerability: Angels of Delusion enemies take increased Physical damage
• Anomaly Susceptibility: Reduced Anomaly resistance—Biggest Fan's 110 Anomaly Mastery excels
• Energy Regen: Cloudcleave's 60% enables frequent ultimates

Agent Substitutions

• Missing Physical DPS: Use highest-invested Agent regardless of element
• Missing Sunna: Any ATK buffer/healer maintains functionality
• Missing S-Rank Bangboo: A-Rank Bangboos at 70-80% effectiveness
• Missing Signature W-Engines: Standard W-Engines at higher refinement often outperform base signatures

Investment depth > roster breadth. Fully-built A-Ranks clear content better than poorly-built S-Ranks.

Common Mistakes

Missing Time-Limited Windows

• DREAMINGANGEL: Expires Feb 2—just 4 days after distribution
• Bangboo Badge: Feb 17-21 gives 4 daily draws vs 1—missing this loses 20 draws (2,000 Polychrome value)
• Angels of Delusion: Ends Feb 9—don't delay

Solution: Set calendar reminders for event start/end dates.

Shop Errors

• Buying Dennies First: Worst conversion rate—always buy limited items + Master Tapes first
• Ignoring Cosmetics: Pan Yinhu outfit never returns
• Buying Unneeded Materials: Prioritize immediate use over stockpiling
• Forgetting Claims: Some shops require manual claiming—do it before expiration

Overlooked Objectives

• Little Golden Carp: Check all five thresholds (100/400/600/800/1,200)
• Shiyu Partial Rewards: Each floor gives Polychromes—don't abandon after Floor 1
• Hollow Zero First Clears: Substantial bonuses beyond weekly 4,640
• Event Dialogue: Some rewards lock behind specific choices

Team Building Errors

• Ignoring Elements: Physical emphasis for Angels of Delusion
• No Survivability: Include one support/healer
• Bangboo Neglect: 10-15% of team damage
• Under-Leveled Agents: Hollow Zero needs level 40+

Stamina Waste

• Exceeding 240 Cap: Regen stops at cap—log in twice daily
• Forgetting Coff Coffee: 60 daily = 420/week
• Inefficient Farming: Prioritize time-limited over permanent content
• Not Using Sweeps: Deep Cleaning Service Card saves 10-15 min/session

Phase 1 vs Phase 2

Reward Comparison

Version 2.6 Phase 1: 26,390 Polychromes + 16 Tapes (181 pulls)—15-20% increase over typical phases. Wonderful Boo-ns' 25 free draws = unprecedented generosity.

Phase 2 Preparation

Phase 2 launches late February/early March:

• New S-Rank Agent (contrasting element/role to Sunna)
• Some events extend (Inter-Knot Membership until March 23)
• New combat challenges
• Shiyu Defense rotation

Resource Allocation

• Polychrome Saving: If Phase 2's Agent appeals more, accumulate Phase 1 earnings without pulling
• Material Stockpiling: If pulling Sunna, invest Phase 2 resources into building her
• Battery Planning: Use transition dead periods for farming

Banner Timing

Sunna runs Feb 6 to March 4 (or Feb 27), overlapping Phase 2 start:

• Early Pulling: Use Sunna in Phase 1 events immediately but commits Polychromes before seeing Phase 2
• Late Pulling: Evaluate Phase 2 first but risks missing Sunna
• Pity: Standard pity carries between banners—calculate if you'll reach 90 before expiration

Don't pull Day 1 unless certain. Waiting 1-2 weeks for feedback costs nothing.

F2P Strategy

Essential vs Optional

Mandatory Daily (15 min):

• Daily Errands (60)
• Inter-Knot claim (90)
• Coff Coffee (60 Battery)
• Wonderful Boo-ns (Feb 14-23)

Weekly High-Value (30-45 min):

• Hollow Zero (4,640)
• Shiyu Defense (800 bi-weekly)

One-Time (1-2 hrs total):

• DREAMINGANGEL (300)
• A Harmony of Delusions (1,200 + cosmetic)
• Angels of Delusion (600-800)

This delivers 90%+ of Polychromes with 60-90 min weekly investment.

Polychrome Saving

• Calculate Pity: 90 pulls guarantees S-Rank. 181 pulls = two S-Ranks at 0 pity
• Evaluate Value: Sunna = Physical Support—useful only if you have Physical DPS
• Avoid Weapon Banners: F2P should skip unless surplus after securing Agents
• Account for Phase 2: Combined phases = 45,000-50,000 Polychromes
• Resist FOMO: Agents rerun, Polychromes don't

Efficiency Analysis

Polychrome-per-Minute:

• Code redemption: 600/min
• Login claims: 360/min
• Wonderful Boo-ns: 125/min
• Hollow Zero: 103/min
• Daily Errands: 6/min

One-time claims vastly outperform combat content. Prioritize quick claims over extended sessions.

Roster Building

• Main DPS: 60-70% of resources
• One Support: 20-30% (healer/shielder/buffer)
• Others: Minimal (level 40, basic gear)
• Avoid Spreading: Concentrate for maximum impact
• Save for Future: Stockpile if current banners don't excite
