Qingyi is an S-Rank Electric character with the Stun speciality who will be added to Zenless Zone Zero in version 1.1.
While Qingyi is featured as the boosted S-Rank character on her Untainted Jade Banner in version 1.1, she will eventually return to Zenless Zone Zero at some point in the future when the Banner schedule cycles back to her.
If you want to prepare for her, we’ve detailed beta leaks of Qingyi’s Promotion materials, and Skill and Attack materials so you can level her up to her full potential right away. To understand how you might play her, we’ve also detailed what we know about Qingyi’s kit and Mindscape Cinema.
Keep in mind that this is leaked beta information, so Qingyi’s materials and kit might change upon her official release.

Qingyi’s kit
Qingyi is an S-Rank Electric character with the Stun speciality who deals Strike-type damage.
Keeping in mind that all of the percentages mentioned below are based on Level 1 Skills, and that this is leaked beta information from hakush.in that could change upon her official release, here’s a brief summary of Qingyi’s kit in Zenless Zone Zero:
- Attribute: Electric.
- Speciality: Stun.
- Damage Type: Strike.
- Rarity: S-Rank.
- Faction: Criminal Investigation Special Response Team.
- Passive Core Skill: Eternal Seasons – When Qingyi lands a Finishing Strike on an enemy with her Basic Attack: Enchanted Moonlit Blossoms, it applies 5 stacks of Subjugation to the enemy, stacking up to 20 times. Each stack of Subjugation increases the target’s Stun Damage Multiplier by 1.5%. For each rush attack during Basic Attack: Enchanted Moonlit Blossoms, the finishing strike will apply an extra stack of Subjugation. If Perfect Dodge is triggered when using finishing strike, it directly applies 10 stacks of Subjugation. When applying Subjugation to normal or elite enemies, the applied stacks are doubled, and when the target recovers from being Stunned, the corresponding stacks of Subjugation are reset.
- Additional Core Skill: Three Verses of Farewell at Yang Pass – When another character in your squad shares the same Attribute or Faction: Basic Attacks deal 20% increased Daze. If Qingyi’s Impact is greater than 120, each point over increases her Attack by six, up to a maximum of 600.
Flash Connect
When Qingyi deals Electric Damage with a skill, she accumulates Flash Connect Voltage, and when Flash Connect Voltage reaches 75%, she will enter the Flash Connect state. When using her Basic Attack: Enchanted Moonlit Blossoms, Qingyi will then consume all Flash Connect Voltage and exit the Flash Connect state. For every 1% of Flash Connect Voltage consumed over 75%, her Damage and Daze inflicted by this skill will be increased by 1%/0.5%.
Basic Attack: Enchanted Moonlit Blossoms itself does not accumulate Flash Connect Voltage.
Basic Attack: Enchanted Moonlit Blossoms
During the Flash Connect state, hold the Basic Attack button to activate. Here are its effects:
- Launch five consecutive forward rush attacks, then execute a finishing strike that inflicts massive Electric Damage. Release the Basic Attack button during the move to trigger the finishing strike early.
- Activate the finishing strike just before the character is attacked to trigger Perfect Dodge.
- Anti-Interrupt level is increased during the rush attack, and Qingyi is invulnerable during the finishing blow.
Qingyi Promotion materials
You need to use Qingyi Promotion materials to upgrade her attack, health, and defence base stats. These materials vary from character to character, and for Qingyi, it looks like you need to get a lot of Stun Certification Seal materials to fully upgrade her capabilities.
With thanks to hakush.in for sourcing this leaked beta information, we know that Qingyi Promotion materials in Zenless Zone Zero are:
- x4 Basic Stun Certification Seal
- x32 Advanced Stun Certification Seal
- x30 Buster Certification Seal
- 800,000 Dennies
For more details, here’s what Qingyi promotion materials you need per level:
| Qingyi Promotion level | Qingyi Promotion materials | Dennies | Reward |

| Level 50 | x10 Buster Certification Seal | 200,000 | x1 regular Master Tape |
| Level 60 | x20 Buster Certification Seal | 400,000 | None |
Remember, this is leaked beta information that could change upon Qingyi’s official release.
Qingyi Skill and Attack materials
Just like Promotion, to get the most out of using Qingyi, you will have to level-up her attacks and passive abilities by using Skill and Attack materials, which vary from character-to-character.
With thanks to hakush.in again for sourcing the information, it looks like you need to use a lot of Shock Chips and Ethereal Pursuit to fully upgrade Qingyi’s capabilities.
In total, to upgrade all of her abilities, the Qingyi Skill and Attack materials you need are:
- Hamster Cage Pass x5
- Living Drive x9
- Higher Dimensional Data: Ethereal Pursuit x60
- Basic Shock Chip x25
- Advanced Shock Chip x75
- Specialized Shock Chip x250
- 2.9 million Dennies
The total for just Qingyi’s Core Skill upgrades is:
- 405,000 Dennies
- Higher Dimensional Data: Ethereal Pursuit x60
- Living Drive x9
Finally, here’s the total for just Qingyi’s Attack upgrades:
- Basic Shock Chip x25
- Advanced Shock Chip x75
- Specialized Shock Chip x250
- Hamster Cage Pass x5
- 2.5 million Dennies
Once again, this is leaked beta information, so Qingyi’s materials could change upon her official release.
Qingyi Mindscape Cinema
By getting duplicates of Qingyi you will receive her Agent Focus. This material allows you to unlock Mindscape Cinema levels, with each upgrade either improving an existing attack or passive ability.
With beta information sourced from hakush.in, here is Qingyi’s Mindscape Cinema in Zenless Zone Zero:
- Insulation Breakdown (MC1): When Qingyi enters combat, Flash Connect Voltage is instantly restored to its maximum, and the accumulation rate is increased by 30%. When using her Basic Attack: Enchanted Moonlit Blossoms, if Flash Connect Voltage is at its maximum, the attack will reduce the defense of the enemy it hits by 15%, and Qingyi’s Crit Rate against that enemy will increase by 20% for 15 seconds.
- Minimal Effort, Maximum Impact (MC2): Each stack of Subjugation in Core Passive: Eternal Seasons increases the Stun Damage Multiplier to 133% of its original value. When Qingyi’s attack hits an enemy and the stacks of Subjugation she applies reaches its maximum stacks, her daze dealt to the target increases by 15%.
- Drink Hot Water (MC3): Basic Attack, Dodge, Assist, Special Attack, and Chain Attack levels increase by two.
- Stable Arc Barrier (MC4): Upon entering or exiting Flash Connect state, gain a shield equal to 10% of Qingyi’s max HP. If a previous shield is still active when the shield effect refreshes, Qingyi generates five Energy. This Energy generation effect can be triggered once every 10 seconds.
- Youthful Spirit (MC5): Basic Attack, Dodge, Assist, Special Attack, and Chain Attack levels increase by two.
- Eight Meridians (MC6): The Interrupt Level of Basic Attack: Enchanted Moonlit Blossoms is greatly increased, and the Crit Damage is increased by an additional 100%. When Qingyi hits an enemy with her Basic Attack: Enchanted Moonlit Blossoms, the target’s Resistance to all Attribute Damage is reduced by 20% for 15 seconds.
Good luck levelling up Qingyi in Zenless Zone Zero!
