82 articlesWith a decent variety of S-Rank Bangboo to pick from, it can be hard to choose which one is most worth investing in in Zenless Zone Zero 1.0.
S-Ranks are much harder to get than the A-Rank Bangboo, too. That means you might want to focus on just one at a time since you’re unlikely to get many duplicates for upgrading!
In this guide, we’ll tell you our recommendation for what S-Rank Bangboo to prioritize.
Which S-Rank Bangboo is Worth Investing in?
Now, the answer to this basic question is similar to what we covered previously in our article about which S-Rank to pick from the gacha. The S-Rank Bangboo you wish to invest in is the one that works best with your available Agents. That means that you should try to match your Bangboo’s Element and faction with your Agents.

As such, your S-Rank Bangboo should instead try to cover a more general-use role. The best pick for that currently is Butler. It creates snacks for your Agents, giving them Energy for skills. This effect improves when he’s paired with two Victoria Housekeeping Agents, but it’s strong enough even without them.
Butler can work alongside any team, similar to how the A-Rank Avocaboo works great in any team. That makes it an easy S-Rank Bangboo worth investing in in Zenless Zone Zero 1.0.
That said, Butler doesn’t have much competition currently, to be fair. It’s the only general-use S-Rank Bangboo, as all the other S-Ranks currently in the game are Element-specific. But getting multiple duplicates of any S-Rank Bangboo is hard, which is why we advise against investing in them over the elemental A-Ranks.
Ultimately, there’s not much to think about when choosing which S-Rank Bangboo to invest in in Zenless Zone Zero 1.0. We feel that they’re outshined by A-Ranks currently, due to their easier availability. We hope to see more general-use S-Rank Bangboo in the future, though!
