Signature W-engine for Sigrid
When the equipper's [Basic Attack] or [EX Special Attack] heavy attack hits an enemy, gain 1 stack of [Vanguard]. [Vanguard] can stack up to 2 times, with each skill type providing a maximum of 1 stack. Each stack increases CRIT DMG by 32%, lasting 25s;
Using the above skills refreshes [Vanguard] duration; When at 2 stacks of [Vanguard], gain [Bone-Chill]: ignore 20% of the target's Ice RES.
[Unknown Sigrid W-Engine] is Sigrid's best W-Engine by a long shot. It gives a massive 50% Crit DMG boost, which pairs perfectly with her Crit Rate passive. Since she already gets plenty of Crit Rate from her kit, this W-Engine lets her stack even more Crit DMG, making it her strongest option for maximizing damage.
Best Sigrid alternative W-engine
As for the alternative weapons for Sigrid build, you can never go wrong with Deep Sea Visitor. Sigrid happens to have the same stats needs as Ellen, which makes her signature weapon insanely good with Sigrid as well. It provides Ice DMG and Crit rate, and she can easily maintain its uptime.
Meanwhile, you can also go for Cannon Rotor for a Sigrid F2P build. It is a cheap W-engine providing crit rate, and ATK%.

✦❅✦❅✦❅✦❅
Strong Early Stop
M1
A Long, Long Time Ago
ATK · Extra Basic Attack
Landing the third hit of Basic Attack: Converging Spear enters
or refreshes Sky Patrol Gunstance and grants one additional use
of Basic Attack: Converging Spear. If this use would exceed the
limit, the final hit of the next Basic Attack: Converging Spear
deals additional Ice DMG equal to 100% of Sigrid's ATK.
Sigrid's ATK also increases by 25%.
Why It Is Good
M1 improves Sigrid's basic combo consistency while adding a
permanent ATK increase and an extra Ice damage hit when her
stored use exceeds the normal limit.
Major Upgrade
M2
Act One of the Legendary
PEN Ratio · Gunstance Uptime
Unbridled Spear attacks and Basic Attack: Converging Spear gain
24% Ice DMG PEN Ratio. Sky Patrol Gunstance lasts two seconds
longer, and Sigrid's Decibel Generation Rate increases by 10%.
Why It Is Good
M2 is one of Sigrid's strongest breakpoints. It gives her
valuable PEN Ratio, makes Sky Patrol Gunstance easier to
maintain, and helps her reach her Ultimate more quickly.
Skill Upgrade
M3
Miracle Guardian
+2 Skill Levels
Increases the levels of Sigrid's Basic Attack, Dodge, Assist,
Special Attack, and Chain Attack by 2.
Why It Is Good
M3 provides a straightforward increase to the multipliers of
nearly every active part of Sigrid's kit, improving her overall
damage without changing her rotation.
Damage Upgrade
M4
Hero Upgrading
Sustained Damage
Each time Sky Patrol Gunstance is refreshed, Sigrid's damage
dealt increases by 24% for eight seconds. Repeated triggers
extend the duration by eight seconds, up to a maximum duration
of 40 seconds.
Why It Is Good
Sigrid naturally refreshes Sky Patrol Gunstance throughout her
main combat loop, making this large damage bonus easy to
activate and maintain during extended encounters.
Skill Upgrade
M5
Azure Sky Oath
+2 Skill Levels
Increases the levels of Sigrid's Basic Attack, Dodge, Assist,
Special Attack, and Chain Attack by 2.
Why It Is Good
M5 adds another universal increase to Sigrid's active skill
multipliers and serves as the final stepping stone toward her
powerful M6 upgrade.
Best Mindscape
M6
Knight of the Skies
Signature Payoff
When the final hit of the first, second, or third sequence of
Basic Attack: Converging Spear hits an enemy, it additionally
deals Ice DMG equal to 150%, 150%, or 200% of Sigrid's ATK,
respectively. When her Chain Attack hits a Stunned enemy,
Formation Breaker no longer has a usage limit. While Formation
Breaker is active, Basic Attack: Converging Spear is also
performed at increased speed.
Why It Is Good
M6 greatly increases every stage of Sigrid's enhanced basic
sequence and removes the normal Formation Breaker usage limit,
giving her a much faster and more powerful Stun damage window.

Best Teams for Sigrid build
Here are the best Sigrid teams in ZZZ!
Sigrid is a traditional Attacker DPS who requires a great stunner to stagger enemies, and a support that will further ramp up her damage. Luckily, Sigrid has plenty of options here, both premium and free-to-play friendly.
Sigrid Premium team
Sigrid is an Ice Attacker DPS, and units like Norma and Sunna are there to increase her damage output massively.
✦❅✦❅✦
Sigrid
Ice / DPS
Norma
Fire / Stun
Sunna
Physical / Support
Norma is not only a good Stun character but also a sub-DPS who provides damage buffs and Chain Attack conversion. Sunna, on the other hand, can double down by offering ATK buffs (from Ether Veil too!) and some healing.
Sigrid Lighter team
You can also opt to bring Lighter to the team instead of Norma.
✦❅✦❅✦
Sigrid
Ice / DPS
Lighter
Fire / Stun
Sunna
Physical / Support
Lighter is another good candidate for Sigrid, and it's all thanks to his high daze output, quick assist and Ice RES shred. This gives Sigrid a stronger damage window against stunned enemies. As for the final slot, you can use Sunna again or other supports such as Astra Yao.
Sigrid F2P team
For the best F2P Sigrid team, meet the Sigrid-Lycaon-Soukaku team.
✦❅✦❅✦
Sigrid
Ice / DPS
Lycaon
Ice / Stun
Soukaku
Ice / Support
Sigrid gets to enjoy frequent stun window, and strong damage buffs all at the same time with the presence of Lycaon and Soukaku. Lycaon doubles as an Ice RES debuffer, and stunner. Meanwhile, Soukaku is a good F2P option for a support who can provide Ice DMG bonus and ATK.

Sigrid is an S-Rank Ice Attack Agent who functions as an on-field DPS focused on enhanced Basic Attacks and Stun damage windows.
What is Sigrid’s best early Mindscape?
M2 is a strong stopping point because it increases Ice PEN Ratio, extends Sky Patrol Gunstance, and improves Decibel generation.
Is Sigrid good at M0?
Yes. Her base kit already provides enhanced Basic Attacks, a large CRIT Rate buff, and increased Stun DMG Multiplier against enemies she hits.
Is Sigrid F2P friendly?
Yes, Sigrid looks reasonably F2P-friendly. Her M0 kit already includes enhanced Basic Attacks, a 66% CRIT Rate buff, and extra Stun damage, while her Additional Ability only requires a Support or Stun teammate.
Is Sigrid worth pulling?
Sigrid is worth pulling if you want a strong Ice DPS with a complex playstyle. She may be easier to skip if you already have a good Ice DPS like Promeia, or an Attacker like Ye Shunguang.
When is Sigrid's release date in Zenless Zone Zero?
Sigrid is officially coming out in the second phase of version 3.1 on August 19, 2026.
Sigrid is a complex agent to play as you need to manage her stance and keep her attacks going. Between this and the right build, your Sigrid's damage can skyrocket. So if you're planning to pull for Sigrid in version 3.1, we're hopeful that this guide has been helpful.
