Chaos Zero Nightmare Artwork 7

Optimizing character and partner builds in Chaos Zero Nightmare is the key to mastering both PvE and PvP content. Every combatant and partner has a unique synergy, best-in-slot gear, and team context that maximizes their performance. This guide summarizes proven builds for top characters, plus universal strategies for the best partner matchups.

How to Build Your Team: Core Principles

Start every elite team by picking a main DPS, supporting them with synergistic healers, buffers, or tanks, and finishing with a flex spot for utility or situational cards. Always check for gear and Memory Fragment overlaps, as well as EGO (ultimate) skill synergies for you and your partners.​

For basics, see the Prydwen Team Building Guide and Game8 Builds Index.​

Universal Partner Matchups

Some partners fit nearly any team, but your focus should be on matching skill triggers and ego effects. Pair burst DPS with partners offering raw AP gain or crit, while tanks benefit from counterattack or shield-granting partners.​​

Key Build Tips

  • Always enhance EGO (ultimate) skills, these scale harder than basic attacks.
  • Prioritize gear with AP recovery, crit, or shield effects depending on your role.
  • For Memory Fragments, synergize stat bonuses with your skill/spam priority.
  • Early on, invest in starter teams such as Haru+Mika+Cassius for smooth clear potential and easy upgrades.​

Resources for Every Character Build

Builds evolve, bookmark these resources and keep your team freshly optimized for every Chaos Zero Nightmare event or meta!
