"En-Nah" Chess Saga Event Guide in Zenless Zone Zero
This event will take place during version 2.4 of the game, from November 26 until December 29, 2025.
What is the "En-Nah" Chess Saga Event About?
During the Event, you will have to help a certain Bangboo to calm down! The only way to do so, is beat him in a Bangboo Chess game!
How do you Participate in the "En-Nah" Chess Saga Event?
In order to participate you will need to reach Inter-Knot level 15 and complete Agent Story Mole in the Hole. You also need to reach the 2.0 zone called Failume Heights.
The goal during the event is to recruit and fuse powerful Bangboos to build a lineup through activating Bangboo bonds, and defeat enemies to claim the rewards!
Recruiting and Fusing Bangboo
In order to recruit Bangboo, you need to spend Coins in the Store. The Bangboo you recruit
end up in your Standby Zone. If you collect three Bangboo of the same name and Rank,
(so for example if you recruit three
Plugboo), you can fuse them into
higher-rank Bangboo. The max rank is 3.
You earn the coins by participating in battles. Each turn will also grant you XP for the store, and you can also spend coins to level up the store. Leveling up the store allows you to deploy more Bangboo, and increases the appearance rate of rare Bangboo.
Activating Bangboo Bonds
If you deploy Bangboo with matching bonds, you will activate the corresponding effects and bonuses. The more bonded Bangboos you deploy, the more power you will get.
Each Bangboo can be a different rank between S and C rank. They all have different stats and skill effects. Each of them also has two different Bonds. The more bangboo you deploy with the same bonds, the higher the bonus power will be!
Deployment and Battle
Each Bangboo has a specific attack trait. Depending on their traits, you can drag the Bangboo and place it accordingly on the battlefield. Once places, they will automatically attack on their own.
You can pick the Recommended Lineup button to check out some
powerful lineups specially prepared for you by
Belion.
Once you selected a recommended lineup, you will see the thumbs-up icon on the recommended Bangboo in the shop. You can change the lineup at any time by clicking on the ton-left button during a fight.
Victory and Defeat Overview
In order to win, you need to defeat all the enemy Bangboo once the countdown is over. If the time is over and both sides have the same amount of Bangboo left, the player with the highest HP percentage left wins. At the end of each turn, the losing side will lose a certain amount of health. If your HP reaches zero, you lost.
Updated Event
This event is the exact same as the previous En-Nah Chess Legend, but with new additions and a few changes!
The rules are the same, but this time you get access to new Bangboo and new mechanics! On top of that, you will also be able to play a new special stage, or even compete against other players in a new PvP mode!
Recommended Lineups
We recommend you select the following recommended lineups, as they work pretty much for any stage:
- Lightstar: It is very easy to build and level. The Bangboo don't cost too much to place, and you have a good ability to protect your DPS.
- Tough Bangboo: This one focuses on strong survivability. Increase health as much as you can, and become basically indestructible.
- Tycoon: This one is harder to build, but it is very powerful.Take advantage of the extra income early on to get powerful S-Rank Bangboo later.
- Popcorn: Take advantage of the bonds and increase your Basic Attack, as well as triggering the additional Missiles for more DMG later on.
- Energy Ring: Get stronger every time a Bangboo is defeated. Put as many Bangboo as possible on the field to take advantage of the DMG boost and deal massive AoE DMG with Gulliver.
