Billy Kid
Who is Billy Kid?
Billy Kid is a free Physical Attack agent from the Cunning Hares and one of the original three starter characters in Zenless Zone Zero. A sharp-shooting gunslinger with a fast-draw style, he specialises in rapid handgun combos and quick-draw EX Special bursts. He is the first free Physical DPS that new players encounter and remains a reliable early-game carry. While outclassed in late game by premium Physical options, he holds a special place in ZZZ as an iconic F2P character and the face of the Cunning Hares.

ビルドガイド
🔮 最適遺物/エコーセット
Fanged Metal (4pc) — Physical DMG Bonus + additional Physical DMG on EX Special and Assist Attack. Best-in-slot for his gunslinger burst windows.
⚔ 最適光円錐/武器
Steel Cushion (5★ standard Physical W-Engine) — ATK + Physical DMG bonus on assists; farmable from the standard W-Engine pool. Budget: Cannon Rotor (4★) or any standard ATK-stat W-Engine — his EX Special does the heavy lifting regardless of weapon choice.
📊 サブステータス優先度
👥 最適パーティ
Physical Starter: Billy + Koleda + Nicole (Koleda Stuns for burst windows; Nicole Ether pen/grouping — a classic new-player team)
Physical Budget: Billy + Anby + Soukaku (budget multi-element team covering Stun and support needs)
無課金向け判断
Billy Kid is given for free early in the story — every ZZZ player has him automatically.
He gets meaningfully stronger at M2 (Mindscape Cinema duplicate 2) which improves EX Special hit count — achievable through event rewards and standard banner duplicates.
Natural upgrade path: Nekomata (standard S-rank Physical) or Jane Doe (Physical Anomaly) for mid-to-late game Physical carries.
よくある質問
Is Billy Kid worth using in late game?
Billy is an A-tier free character — he clears early and mid-game content well. In late game (Shiyu Defense higher floors) he falls behind premium S-rank Physical carries. He is a fine stepping stone and worth investing in while building toward Nekomata or Jane Doe.
What is Billy's best team?
Billy + Koleda + Nicole is the classic starter team. Koleda Stuns enemies for Billy's burst windows and Nicole provides Ether DEF reduction through grouping. Both Koleda and Nicole are accessible standard/4-star units.
Should I raise Billy or focus on getting Nekomata?
Raise Billy for free — he costs nothing, covers Physical DPS needs for most early content, and his team uses standard characters. Saving Polychrome for Nekomata is a valid plan, but do not leave a roster slot empty while waiting.
