Welcome to our Starlight Billy build guide for Zenless Zone Zero. Starlight - Billy Kid is a powerful S-Rank Physical Rupture DPS Agent who deals massive damage while fighting with his motorcycle. In our guide, we will cover everything you need to know to get the most out of your Starlight Billy, from building the best Drive Discs and W-Engines to important stat priorities and combos.

Keep in mind that Starlight Billy is still in beta, and anything can still change until he releases!

Starlight Billy's Stat Priority

When building Starlight Billy, CRIT Rate, CRIT DMG, and HP are the most important stats to focus on. The more HP you have, the more his Sheer DMG will increase.

Starlight Billy's Skill Priority

From what we know so far it seems Billy's Basic Attack and Core skill will be the most important, however, things can still change since we do not have his full kit yet.

How to Play Starlight Billy

Starlight Billy is a Rupture Agent, but compared to other Rupture characters, he seems to have a higher conversion rate, going from 1 HP = 0.1 Sheer Force, to 1 HP = 0.12 Sheer Force. On top of that, he also does not seem to convert any ATK into Sheer Force like other Rupture Agents. So far it is unknown if this is intentional, or if they forgot about that part, so it might still change.

Not much is known about Billy's gameplay for the time being. However, we do know that most of his skills seem to revolve around his Basic Attack, riding a bike during combat, and consuming his HP while he is on his bike. He also seems to be able to gain a shield at times, and builds up a heat gauge that he can then spend.
