To achieve high-value runs like the 13.5-million score milestone in Zenless Zone Zero's Hollow Zero extraction mode, prioritize building team-matched Resonia synergies, pathing directly toward essential nodes on the TV grid, and extracting before team health collapses. Securing maximum bounty rewards relies on balancing aggressive combat exploration with disciplined exit timing.

TV Grid Pathing and Node Priorities

Avoid visiting every node on the TV grid. Move directly toward tiles that increase combat power or bounty multipliers to keep your team healthy for deeper sectors.

Node TypePrimary BenefitRisk LevelPriority Condition
CombatStacks Resonia cards and builds score multipliersMedium to HighHigh team HP and incomplete build
Resonia ShopPurchases specific stat and elemental set piecesLowAvailable currency and missing build links
Rest / RecoveryRestores team health and increases survivabilityLowLow team HP or severe status debuffs

When planning your route across the grid:

  • Focus on permanent boosts: Select paths offering direct stat increases or currency early in the run to scale team strength quickly.
  • Reroute for survival: Shift pathing toward Rest or Recovery nodes as soon as team health takes significant damage.
  • Avoid unnecessary fights: Skip optional combat tiles if your build is already established and your team cannot handle extra combat decay.

Resonia Selection and Build Synergy

Resonia cards drive combat efficiency and clear speed. Choose cards that match your active Agents' primary damage mechanics:

  1. Anomaly Teams: Select Resonia that increases Anomaly Proficiency or accelerates status buildup speed.
  2. Attacker Teams: Select damage-amplifying Resonia triggered by successful dodges and chain assists.
  3. Resonia Shops: Spend accumulated currency at Shop nodes to purchase missing set pieces rather than relying strictly on random drops.

Completing a coherent set of Resonia speeds up encounter clear times and preserves team HP, directly inflating your final extraction score.

Managing Pressure, Corruption, and Extraction

Defensive decay threatens deep runs. Monitor Pressure and Corruption meters continuously throughout your run. While certain Corruption traits impose minor penalties you can ignore, severe defensive drops require immediate pathing to cleansing nodes.

Extract immediately when any of the following conditions are met:

  • Health Threshold: Total team HP falls below 30%.
  • Build Cap: Your Resonia synergy set is complete and accessible nodes offer low-value rewards.
  • Resource Cap: You reach your target score threshold or maximum carry capacity.

Overstaying in deep sectors with low health risks wiping out accumulated returns. Extracting safely secures your bounty and maintains steady progression.
