Overview
Zooey has overwhelming synergy with Enmity, maximizing its power and mitigating its risks with Conjunction.
Strengths
- Conjunction is probably the most powerful ability in the game, offering massive damage, mitigation, and sustain all at once
- Double-dips into Enmity with
JammedATK is greatly boosted based on how low HP is - Two respectable nukes and some nifty debuffs
- Her character weapon (
Cute Ribbon) is very powerful for players on a budget
Weaknesses
- Requires an Enmity grid to realize her full potential.
How to Play
Understanding Zooey's basic gameplay is as simple as understanding Enmity: when HP goes down, ATK goes up.
- Use Conjunction to reduce your team's HP to 1
- Use Thunder and Resolution (and other characters' nukes) while ATK is massively increased
- Attack
Advanced
While Zooey is often used for pure burst to quickly farm early- or mid-game content, her abilities do have some tactical considerations.
- With a strong enough grid to hit cap without

, Resolution can be saved for a few turns after Conjunction - Conjunction itself can be saved for its

Synergy
More than just synergy, some form of Enmity grid is practically a requirement for Zooey.
- eg.
Celeste Claw Omega, Olden Cortana, Cortana, Gisla, Tiamat Bolt Omega, Ancient Ecke Sachs, Solomon's Axe, etc.
Beyond that, most of Zooey's synergies involve exploiting Conjunction as much as possible.

Priorities[edit]
This build focuses on Summer Zooey's strengths, specifically her enmity focus. Your first priority should be three points in Skill DMG Cap. The reason for this is because with her JammedATK is greatly boosted based on how low HP is
buff she can easily hit the damage cap on element, and her first skill is very likely to hit the damage cap off-element assuming proper grid management. Your next priority should be one point in Dark ATK and ATK (Overdrive), followed by DEF. This will give her better survivability at lower HP, while at the same time giving as much damage to her attacks and skills as possible. Players can decide whether more DEF points is worth it to them or not.
Some other masteries to consider are: HP, Support Skill, Debuff Resistance, and CA Damage.
- If you're planning on using Olden Cortana, Qilin Bow, or another weapon that lowers max HP then her HP mastery is a good way to mitigate the HP loss.
- Her Support Skill seems pretty useless at first glance, but keep in mind that there are many situations where it comes in very handy.
- One point in Debuff Resistance can help prevent BlindedAttacks have a slight chance to miss
, CharmedAttacks are slightly limited
, or other status effects that can prevent her from attacking. This is primarily for situations where you can't bring ClarityRemove 1 debuff from all parties. or VeilAll allies gain VeilDebuffs will be nullified (1 time)
"Veil" is an unofficial name used by the wiki for this status effect. Its actual in-game name is "Immune.".. - One point in CA Damage can help her hit the CA damage cap at higher HP, but is generally not needed. You will generally have a lot of points left over to play around with, and this is a good spot to use one.
