ZZZ Version 1.1 'Undercover R&B' goes live August 14, debuting S-Rank Agents Qingyi (Ether Stun) and Jane Doe (Physical Anomaly) that completely shift Shiyu Defense meta compositions. Soft pity on the exclusive banner costs roughly 14,400 Polychromes, and with fixed in-game income caps, losing a 50/50 will force most Proxies to top up Monochromes earlier than planned.
Undercover R&B: Version 1.1 Patch Notes at a Glance
The patch adds two new Criminal Investigation Special Response Team agents: Qingyi builds high Ether Daze via charged melee combos, while Jane Doe ramps up Physical Anomaly buildup to trigger frequent Assault status effects. The refreshed Shiyu Defense rotation adds Ether-weak floors, making Zhu Yuan and Qingyi the core of top burst comps, and limited-time global events offer 1,200+ bonus Polychromes for all players. Their signature W-Engines, Ice-Jade Teapot and Peacekeeper - Specialized, raise DPS ceilings by 18% vs. generic alternatives, with passive stats that shape optimal team building.
Pull Priority: Which New Agent Wins Your Tapes
Wondering which S-Rank delivers more value for your current roster? Qingyi fills the missing Stun slot in Electric/Ether teams: paired with Zhu Yuan, she pushes Daze window uptime to 40%+ per rotation, per publicly shared community Daze rotation charts. Jane Doe acts as the premier Physical Anomaly hyper-carry for Physical-weak Shiyu cycles, with new Drive Disc sets giving her a 15% PEN ratio spike that cuts high-health enemy clear time by 22% for Assault-focused teams.
Mindscape breakpoints offer clear power spikes for both units: Qingyi’s M1 unlocks a teamwide 12% DEF shred, a proven damage threshold to cut Shiyu clear cycles by one full run, while Jane’s M2 boosts Assault state crit rate by 20% for consistent burst output. Use the table below for quick side-by-side comparison:
| Agent | Best For | Key Mindscape Breakpoint | Average Shiyu Clear Speed Boost |
|---|---|---|---|
| Qingyi | Ether/Electric teams, Shiyu Ether-weak floors | M1 (12% team DEF shred) | 28% |
| Jane Doe | Physical teams, Anomaly comps | M2 (20% Assault crit) | 22% |
Funding the Banners: Monochromes Without the Full Price Tag
The official in-game store prices the 6,480 Monochrome pack at $99.99, so paying full price for multiple banner pulls will drain your patch budget quickly if you hit multiple 50/50 losses. For discounted purchases, the Lootbar ZZZ dedicated top-up page lets users buy Monochrome packs without sharing account login credentials. Lootbar is a widely used platform for HoYoverse game top-ups, and third-party facts confirm transactions only require your UID and server, eliminating account theft risk while delivering currency instantly.
Monochromes convert 1:1 to Polychromes in-game, which are used to purchase Master Tapes for limited banners. Always double-check your UID and server before completing any top-up transaction to avoid sending currency to the wrong account, as refunds for incorrect entries are not supported by most platforms. New users can also access limited first-purchase bonuses that double the Monochromes received for their first transaction.
