The original and encrypted tapes will help you to perform attunements on the different banners of Zenless Zone Zero, so here we review the main methods to obtain them.
When making rolls on the main banners of the Zenless Zone Zero gacha store , players need to have original tapes and encrypted tapes in their inventory, the two resources or “currencies” that are used precisely to make attunements on stable channels and exclusive channels that contain agents and amplifiers . In case you have any doubts about this, in this entry of our guide we are going to explain what methods are available to easily get both tapes in ZZZ.
How to get original tapes?
Original Tapes are the simpler versions of the two types of tapes in Zenless Zone Zero and are used to acquire attunements on the Stable Channel banner , i.e. the permanent gacha banner.
These types of tapes, being more basic, are also easier to obtain through many different ways, for example:
- Playing in Cavity Zero: Participate in missions in this game mode and you can get original tapes as a reward.
- Promoting Agents: By leveling up your characters and promoting them upon reaching levels 10, 30, and 50, you can obtain 1 Original Tape as a reward.
- Increase your proxy level: Every 5 levels you increase your user level you can obtain 2 original tapes.
- Upgrade your Agenda Challenge Level – Complete Agenda objectives to claim rewards for each level and earn 1 Original Tape.
In addition to these methods, remember that you can also get Original Tapes as rewards from certain temporary events . Likewise, in the free route of the Season Pass it is also possible to claim 1 Original Tape every 10 levels.
Finally, in the “Signal Bazaar” in the in-game store you can exchange various materials to obtain Original Tapes (for example by exchanging 160 Films , 20 Signal Repercussions or 90 Signal Echoes for a maximum of 5 times per month). This is usually the fastest and most direct way to obtain these types of tapes, but as you can see there are more methods, so by playing often and progressing in your account you should accumulate a good amount of them in a short period of time.
How to get encrypted tapes?
Encrypted Tapes are the most special type of tape in Zenless Zone Zero, as they are used to perform attunements on the Exclusive (limited-time) Agent Channels, and also on the Amplified Channel , which contains amplifiers of higher quality or rarity.
First, you can get encrypted tapes through the “Signal Bazaar” in the in-game store by exchanging the following materials that you accumulate in your inventory:
- You can exchange x160 Film to get 1 Encrypted Tape.
- You can exchange Signal Repercussion x20 to obtain 1 Encrypted Tape.
- You can exchange Signal Echo x90 to get 1 Encrypted Tape.
Alternatively, Encrypted Tapes can also sometimes be obtained in certain timed events , if you complete their objectives and claim the rewards in time (keep an eye out for them for a chance to get them).
If you choose to purchase the Zenless Zone Zero Season Pass ” Standard Plan”, you can also earn up to 5 Encrypted Tapes in one season, if you reach the required pass levels in time by leveling up your pass experience.
Finally, the remaining option is to visit the “Gift Shop” section of the in-game store, where you’ll find various bundles that you can purchase with real money to obtain encrypted tapes and also original tapes. However, this is the least recommended method for obvious reasons (if you’re going to spend money in the game, the season pass is more cost-effective).
