Chaos Zero Nightmare Reroll Guide: Best Strategies and Starting Picks
If you want a meta lead and a smoother start in Chaos Zero Nightmare, rerolling is still the most reliable way to secure powerful characters. Here’s how to do it efficiently, plus a ranked list of the best reroll targets at global launch.
How to Reroll in Chaos Zero Nightmare
1. Start and Speed Through the Prologue:
- Download and launch the game; use your own or a guest account.
- Play through the prologue, tap and hold the fast forward button during dialogue, though you’ll need to complete the full combat and tutorial stages.
- After story, you’ll receive a 4-star Tressa as a free guarantee (Game8 reroll guide).
2. Claim All Freebies:
- Head to the main menu, tap the three-line menu at the top right, and claim all pre-registration and mailbox rewards.
3. Summon on Rescue Banner:
- Use all free currency and tickets on the Rescue (gacha) banner(s), prioritize those featuring the strongest available 5-star units (LDPlayer reroll guide).
4. Didn’t Get What You Want? Reset!
- No need for a new account: Go to menu → settings → profile → “Reset Server” to wipe your data and start fresh.
- Repeat as needed until you get your desired characters.
Tip: Each reroll cycle takes about 20–30 minutes due to unskippable tutorial sections.
Best Characters to Target for Reroll
Absolute Top Reroll Picks (S-Tier):
- Khalipe: Self-sufficient, can carry almost any team. Reliable damage, easy card setup, fits all team comps (ProGameGuides tier list).
- Mika: Powerful single-target burst, pairs well with Passion/Red teams, easy to build.
- Mei Lin: Exceptional shield and AoE defense, great in early and late game, especially if you want a tanky team.
- Hugo: High consistent combo damage, versatile in both story and boss content (LDShop character overview).
- Veronica: Provides auto-damage at end of every turn after setup, increases team cycling speed.
Other Very Strong Reroll/Starter Options:
- Renoa: Single-target burst specialist, best for boss fights.
- Orlea: Powerful controller and summoner, offers shields and healing with advanced deck synergy.
- Kayron: AoE Void DPS, bursts hard with exhaust builds but requires careful team setup.
Don’t Overlook:
- Rin: Extreme burst but needs build-around with pure supports.
- Maribell, Nia, Maribel: Easily slotted as support DPS for story and mono-color teams.
Fast Reroll Strategies (F2P/Whale)
- F2P: Focus only on pulling until you get at least one S-tier Carry (Khalipe, Mika, Mei Lin, or Hugo). Consider stopping at a double 5-star pull if both are meta.
- Whale/Heavy Pullers: Aim for ideal combos (e.g., Khalipe + Mika) for future PvP, can save hours of re-rolling and resource grinding later.
Important: Balance changes are likely! All 5-star characters are attainable over time, so reroll only for strong preference or fun, not strict necessity (Game8 reroll notes).
Reroll Tips and Pitfalls
- Speed: Watch for Rescue Anchor milestones and event rewards for more pulls.
- Resets: Use the in-game “reset server” function, no account hop or redownloading needed.
- Meta Shifts: After balance updates, check for reroll tier list changes before you begin another round.
Rerolling in Chaos Zero Nightmare is accessible and highly rewarding for those who want a head start. Go for Khalipe, Mika, Mei Lin, Hugo, or Veronica for an easy early game and team flexibility, claim all free rewards, reset fast, and play until you get your favorites!
