ZZZ Promeia best teams - Premium and F2P teams
Of course, Promeia is nothing without her best teams! For team compositions, you'll want to have a stunner as she deals more damage during stun windows, another anomaly off-field (ideally) partner, or support. Here are the best Promeia teams in ZZZ, and why you should pick them.
Zenless Promeia Premium team - Promeia, Nangong Yu, and Yuzuha
Nangong Yu is the current best-in-slot stunner and buffer. Why? This is mainly because Nangong Yu extends stun durations, enhances stun multipliers, and provides many more buffs, and she has impressive personal damage. Round out the team with Yuzuha, who is a Physical support that provides attribute anomaly and disorder buffs!

Yuzuha
ZZZ Promeia abloom team - Promeia, Nangong Yu and Vivian
Promeia wants to trigger disorder, so make sure to add an off-field anomaly agent such as Vivian.
Vivian doesn’t just deal off-field Ether damage through Guard Feathers as she also triggers Abloom, allowing Promeia to generate resources more quickly. On top of that, Vivian can buff Disorder damage, making her an ideal Anomaly partner for Promeia.

Vivian
ZZZ Promeia disorder - Promeia, Nangong Yu and Vivian
Besides Vivian, Burnice is also a strong option.
Any off-field character that can apply their own Anomaly and consistently trigger Abloom is highly valuable for Promeia, and Burnice fits this role well. As a Fire Anomaly sub-DPS, Burnice can apply Fire Anomaly through her Special resource, allowing her to contribute steady off-field pressure while enabling consistent Abloom triggers.
