W-Engine Channel Signal Search Banner Guide in Zenless Zone Zero (ZZZ)

The W-Engine Channel is a limited-time channel where players have a higher rate of obtaining specific A-Rank or Limited S-Rank Signals. The Signals with a higher Reception Rate are W-Engines. The limited S-Rank Signals are only available on a specific W-Engine Channel, so if players miss the limited-time period, they may try getting the limited S-Rank Signal again on its next Channel appearance.

Please Note: You cannot obtain any S-Rank Agents on the W-Engine Channel.

You can exchange 1 Encrypted Master Tape to conduct a Single Signal Search, or exchange 10 Encrypted Master Tape for 10 Signal Searches.

In Version 2.0, the current W-Engine Channel Banners are:

• Qingming Birdcage, the new limited-time -Rank Signal, will be available in the W-Engine Channel Banner "Dissonant Sonata"! Qingming Birdcage is the signature Rupture W-Engine for Yixuan.
• There will also be a rerun of Elegant Vanity in the W-Engine Channel Banner "Vibrant Resonance"! This is the signature Support W-Engine for Astra Yao.

Both W-Engine Channels feature the same rate-up -Rank Signals: Tremor Trigram Vessel (NEW!) and Box Cutter.

Please Note: Players cannot Signal Search Qingming Birdcage on the "Vibrant Resonance" Banner, nor Elegant Vanity on the "Dissonant Sonata" Banner.

Once this W-Engine Channel ends, Tremor Trigram Vessel will be added to the Stable Channel permanently.

In Version 2.0 Phase 2, the following W-Engines are expected to be available from June 25th to July 15th, 2025 at 14:59:59 (Server Time):

• Roaring Furnace (NEW!)
• Tusks of Fury (RERUN)
• Big Cylinder
• Housekeeper

Please note: As with any future Channel Banners, current information is subject to change.

The W-Engine Channel increases the rate of the featured A-Rank and S-Rank W-Engines. Whenever you receive an A-Rank or S-Rank W-Engine, there is a 75% chance of recruiting the featured W-Engine on the Channel. If the player fails to receive the featured W-Engine, the following will occur:

• If the player received a Non-Featured Signal, it will be one of the Signals from the Stable Channel.
• Their next A-Rank or S-Rank W-Engine is guaranteed to be one of the featured on the W-Engine Channel.

The Signal Searches on the Exclusive Channel and W-Engine Channel are accumulated separately from each other. This means that you cannot use your Signal Searches from the Exclusive Channel to progress towards a Signal Guarantee on the W-Engine Channel, and vice versa. Based on the cumulative Signal Searches done on the W-Engine Channel, the game will provide the following bonuses listed below:

Please Note: the W-Engine Channel will provide a guaranteed S-Rank Signal at 80 Searches. It is highly advised that players save up the appropriate amount of Encrypted Master Tape. The maximum amount that players should save is 160 Encrypted Master Tape for the W-Engine Channel's limited-time S-Rank Signal.

If you receive an S-Rank Signal at any time, either before or at the guaranteed amount, your cumulative Searches for that specific Channel will reset back to 0. Your cumulative Searches and S-Rank Guarantee (if applicable) will carry over to the next respective Limited-Time Channel.

75.000% of S-Rank Signal Reception Rate:

• Qingming Birdcage (NEW on Dissonant Sonata)
• Elegant Vanity (RERUN on Vibrant Resonance)

75.000% of A-Rank Signal Reception Rate:

• Tremor Trigram Vessel (NEW!)
• Box Cutter

Please note: If no Reception Rate increase or guarantee applies, the base Reception Rate will be split evenly among all Signals within the same Rank.
