Hey squad! 🎮 As a dedicated ZZZ player since launch, I've spent way too much time (and Boopons!) figuring out the Bangboo meta. Let's talk about that sweet guaranteed S-Rank pull you get after enough summons. It's a game-changer, but picking the right one can be super tricky! It's all about synergy with your existing Agents and your dream team comp. No single Bangboo is the 'best' for everyone, but I'm here to break down their strengths so you can make the perfect pick for your playstyle.
Let's dive into the roster! I'll rank them based on utility, team synergy, and overall value in the 2025 meta.
🌀 The Anomaly Build-Up Powerhouses (S-Tier Picks)
These Bangboo are the MVPs for enabling your Agents' biggest damage windows.
-
Resonaboo (Ether): Hands down one of the most versatile and powerful picks right now. A lot of endgame content has enemies weak to Ether, and Resonaboo fills a crucial role. It's like having a mini-Nicole on your team! Its active skill summons a black hole that groups enemies together, setting them up for your characters' juiciest area-of-effect attacks. This crowd control is chef's kiss 👌. On top of that, it provides excellent Ether Anomaly Buildup. If you're running Nicole or planning for future Ether Agents, this is a top contender.
-
Sharkboo (Ice): The undisputed king for Ice teams. If you managed to pull Ellen or any other frosty Agent, Sharkboo is your best friend. It plants traps that deal Ice DMG and, most importantly, massively boost Ice Anomaly Buildup. This synergizes perfectly with Ellen's kit, as she guarantees a Shatter on Frozen enemies for bonus damage. Pro tip: Using Sharkboo's Chain Attack in a team with multiple Ice Agents is absolutely devastating! ❄️
⚡🔥 The Elemental Specialists (A-Tier Picks)
Solid choices if you're committing to a specific elemental team.
| Bangboo | Element | Primary Role | Best For |
|---|---|---|---|
| Plugboo | Electric | Anomaly Buildup & DMG | Electric-focused teams (e.g., with Billy). |
| Rocketboo | Fire | Anomaly Buildup & DMG | Fire-focused teams. |
| Bangvolver | Physical | Anomaly Buildup & DMG | Physical teams, but with a caveat. |
A quick note on Bangvolver: It's a bit weaker than Plugboo and Rocketboo because its shots have a chance to misfire. This makes its damage and Anomaly buildup less reliable, which can be frustrating in timed combat scenarios. Still a decent pick if you love Physical teams!
⚙️ The Utility & Niche Picks (B-Tier & Situational)
These Bangboo offer unique benefits that can be amazing... in the right situation.
-
Butler: Creates an Energy-restoring snack. Energy = more EX Special Attacks = more fun! In theory, this is fantastic. The big downside? Your character has to run over and pick up the snack, which can waste precious seconds in a clock-based fight. It's great for longer, more chaotic battles but can feel clunky in speed-run content.
-
Amillion & Safety: These are the signature Bangboo for the Cunning Hares and Belobog Heavy Industries factions, respectively. They're more focused on dealing pure Physical Damage rather than helping with Anomaly Buildup. While extra damage is nice, triggering Anomalies (Stun, Freeze, etc.) is almost always better because your main Agents' kits are built around them. Anomaly activation usually deals more damage than what these Bangboo can output.
My Final Verdict & Recommendation
Think of Bangboo as supportive little helpers, not your main damage dealers. Their job is to set the stage so your Agents can shine brighter. Therefore, utility and Anomaly support almost always trump pure damage.
Here’s my personal priority list for your guaranteed pull:
-
Resonaboo: Unmatched crowd control and Ether utility. Future-proof and works in many teams.
-
Sharkboo: A must-pull if you have Ellen or are building a premier Ice team. The synergy is insane.
-
Plugboo/Rocketboo: Excellent and reliable picks if you've invested heavily into Electric or Fire rosters.
-
Butler: A high-risk, high-reward pick. Can be game-changing if you master positioning.
-
Bangvolver/Amillion/Safety: Consider these if you really love their associated factions or Agents, but know they might not optimize your team's peak performance.
Ultimately, look at your Agent roster! Who do you love playing? Build your team around them and choose the Bangboo that amplifies their strengths. Happy pulling, Proxies! May your Boopon pulls be blessed! ✨
