Burnice White Guide & Best Builds

Welcome to our Burnice White build guide for Zenless Zone Zero. Burnice White is a powerful S-Rank Fire Sub DPS Agent known for burning enemies and dealing Fire Anomaly. In our guide, we'll cover everything you need to know to get the most out of your Burnice, from building the best Drive Discs and W-Engines to important stat priorities and combos.

Burnice White's Best W-Engines

Listed below are Burnice's best W-Engines. While W-Engines are listed in a priority order, what's best to build on your Burnice can change depending on the resources you plan to invest.

Flamemaker Shaker
Fuel on the Rocks
While off-field, the equipper's Energy Regen increases by 0.6/0.75/0.9/1.05/1.2/s. When hitting an enemy with an EX Special Attack or Assist Attack, the equipper's DMG increases by 3.5/4.4/5.2/6.1/7%, stacking up to 10 times and lasting for 6s. This effect can trigger once every 0.3s. While off-field, the stack effect is doubled. Repeated triggers reset the duration. Upon obtaining the DMG increase effect, if the number of current stacks is greater than or equal to 5, then the equipper's Anomaly Proficiency increases by 50/62/75/87/100. This Anomaly Proficiency increase does not stack and lasts for 6s.
Burnice's Signature W-Engine and a notable increase in damage over her next best options, especially against any F2P options. This offers additional Energy Regen making it easier to manage Burnice's heat and honestly providing a large amount of buffs which all stack many times.
Electro-Lip Gloss
Kiss of Death
When there are enemies inflicted with Attribute Anomaly on the field, the equipper's ATK increases by 10/11.5/13/14.5/16% and they deal an additional 15/17.5/20/22.5/25% more DMG to the target.
Burnice's second best W-Engine option and her best 4-Star, however this W-Engine comes from the Battle Pass. This W-Engine provides 75 Anomaly Proficiency which is great for Burnice while also providing ATK and DMG buffs when enemies are inflicted with an Attribute Anomaly.
Flight of Fancy
Silver Spiked Feathers
Increases Anomaly Buildup Rate by 40/46/52/58/64%. When the equipper deals Ether DMG, their Anomaly Proficiency increases by 20/23/26/29/32 for 5s, stacking up to 6 times. This effect can trigger once every 0.5s, and repeated triggers reset the duration.
Practiced Perfection
Gift of Stardust
The equipper's Anomaly Mastery increases by 60/69/78/87/96. When inflicting Assault, the equipper's Physical DMG increases by 20/23/26/29/32% for 20s, stacking up to 2 times. Repeated triggers reset the duration. When the equipper enters combat, immediately gain 2 stacks.
Weeping Gemini
Lingering Cries
Whenever a squad member inflicts an Attribute Anomaly on an enemy, the equipper gains a buff that increases Anomaly Proficiency by 30/34/38/42/48, stacking up to 4 times. This effect expires when the target recovers from Stun or is defeated. The duration of each stack is calculated separately.
Burnice's best F2P option which works great with Burnice simply needing an Attribute Anomaly to gain up to 188 Anomaly Proficiency at 4 stacks. That being said, you will not always have full stacks throughout combat so the exact amount of AP this grants can vary.
Fusion Compiler
Data Flood
Increases ATK by 12/15/18/21/24%.
When using a Special Attack or EX Special Attack, the equipper's Anomaly Proficiency is increased by 25/31/37/43/50 for 8s, stacking up to 3 times. The duration of each stack is calculated separately.

Best Drive Discs for Burnice White

Chaos Jazz
2-Piece Set: Anomaly Proficiency +30
4-Piece Set: Fire DMG and Electric DMG increases by 15%. While off-field, EX Special Attack and Assist Attack DMG increases by 20%. When switching on-field, this buff continues for 5s, and this continuation effect can trigger once every 7.5s.
Chaos Jazz is undisputedly Burnice's best Drive Disc set to build around currently thanks to both the 30 Anomaly Proficiency it grants as well as the 15% Fire DMG and a 20% buff to Burnice's off-field damage which is always active.

2-Piece Recommendations include:

  • Puffer Electro
  • Freedom Blues
  • Inferno Metal
  • Branch & Blade Song
  • Astral Voice
  • Phaethon's Melody
While Puffer Electro is Burnice's best 2-Piece option, most options are incredibly close with a single substat roll generally being the deciding factor in what would be best.

Burnice White's Stat Priority

Disc 4: Anomaly Proficiency
Disc 5: PEN / Fire DMG > ATK %
Disc 6: Anomaly Mastery > ATK %
Substats: Anomaly Proficiency > ATK % > PEN > ATK

As an Anomaly Agent, Burnice's main stat focus is generally on Anomaly Proficiency and Anomaly Mastery. ATK % can result in being slightly better on more specific team compositions however this is not recommended as Burnice is an Agent you may want to place in a range of anomaly-centric teams.

Burnice White's Skill Priority

Skill Priority: > = > > >>>

Burnice's most important skills to level are her Core Skill, EX Special Attack and her Ultimate, neither Dodge or Basic is worth investing much into when building Burnice.

How to Play Burnice White

Burnice's main resource is called Heat, this is a meter show under her character icon in the top right of the screen. Heat normally has a maximum of 100 points but the limit can be increased to 140 if you have her at M1.

Burnice White Heat

Burnice can gain heat in the following ways:

  • Gain 50 heat when using Ultimate: Glorious Inferno.
  • Gain 1.4 Heat for every 1 Energy Used.
  • Upon entering the battlefield, Burnice instantly accumulates 100 Heat. 140 at M1.

This heat can be spent on a held Basic Attack but the main use is related to her Core passive. After 50 heat, Burnice is in the Nitro-Fuel Cocktail state which causes her hits to apply a Scorched effect to enemies. Scorched enemies then take Fire DMG when hit by other squad members which allows Burnice to deal damage and apply Anomaly while not on-field.

During combat your main combo is to swap to Burnice via a Defensive Assist, perform an Assist Follow-Up and then an EX Special to use energy and gain Heat. Tap into a Hold of EX Special allows you to get to a held EX special faster, but costs a little more energy.

Burnice White's Best Mindscapes

Burnice's best Mindscapes are Kindred Flames (M1) and Extra at No Additional Charge (M2) these provide significant upgrades and are good stopping points. Burning Invitation (M6) is the only other good Mindscape for Burnice. That being said Ultimate Fuel Supply (M4) can be a powerful Mindscape in CRIT builds.
