How to Get Polychromes in Zenless Zone Zero
There are four main ways to get Polychromes in Zenless Zone Zero:
- Commissions
- Proxy Primers
- Events
- Howl’s News Stand
This may seem like there are plenty of Polychromes to go around, but like other gacha titles, you’ll find premium currency to become quite scarce the further you get in the game. This can be rather frustrating as it's key to gearing up in the ZZZ endgame activities.
Commissions
Commissions are Zenless Zone Zero’s version of quests. So, by going through the game’s main story, you can obtain a substantial amount of Polychromes. However, after completing the latest chapter of the Zenless Zone Zero story, you’ll have to wait for the next major update before you’re able to continue.
Some side quests in the game will also reward you with Polychromes. But just like with the main storyline, you can run out of side quests to keep you busy and then it’s back to waiting for the next patch.
Proxy Primers
Proxy Primers in Zenless Zone Zero are sets of objectives that players can complete for rewards. It’s very much like any achievement system that rewards you with completing specific tasks.
Not all Proxy Primers will reward you with Polychromes though, and these achievements can only be completed once. Other rewards from this system include Inter-Knot XP and Dennies.
Events
Every now and again, Zenless Zone Zero will hold special events to keep players engaged and reward them with a bunch of different items including Polychromes. These events can range from anything between simple login campaigns to challenging boss encounters, so be sure to keep your eyes peeled for any announcements.
Howl’s Newsstand
Howl is an adorable dog NPC that owns a newsstand on Sixth Street. You can visit this stand to purchase a scratch card once a day. You can win some Polychromes from these scratch cards, but it is still up to chance.
Aside from these sources, you can also buy Polychromes using real money. Just remember to spend wisely.
Dailies
The best way to get Polychromes in ZZZ is by completing your dailies each and every day. These are short and simple missions that will reward you will up to 60 Polychrome each day before they refresh at the daily ZZZ reset time.
While 60 Polychrome per day doesn't sound like much, that equals 420 Polychromes per week, or 1680 Polychrome per month completely free.
What Are Polychromes Used for in Zenless Zone Zero?
Polychromes are primarily used to pull for new Agents and W-Engines in Zenless Zone Zero. You can also use Polychromes to restore Battery Charge, the game’s form of energy, to continue farming for upgrade materials.
Bangboos have their own separate banner that uses a different kind of currency, so you don’t have to worry about saving Polychromes for these adorable android companions.
And that’s our guide on how to get Polychromes in Zenless Zone Zero. For more on the action RPG, be sure to check out what you can get from the Zenless Zone Zero battle pass or find out which characters are featured on the current and next ZZZ banners.
