ZZZ Combat Guide: How to Master Perfect Dodge & Chain Attacks

Do you want to get good at perfect dodge and chain attacks in ZZZ? Start by learning the right timing. If you dodge just before getting hit, you enter a slow-motion mode called Vital View. This mode lets you react faster and hit more accurately. Watch for signs from enemies. Practice will help you notice these signs and move better. Use the Daze Meter and attack enemies when they are stunned for better results. Here is how many chain skills you can use on each enemy type:

Enemy Type	Chain Skills Allowed
Regular enemies	1
Elite enemies	2
Bosses	3

Tip: Try to counterattack right after a Perfect Dodge to do the most damage.

If you attack while an enemy is Stunned, you can win hard fights more easily. To get the resources to power up your characters for these tough fights, a quick top-up from ManaBuy can be a great help.

Basics

Dodge Controls

Dodging in ZZZ feels smooth once you get the hang of it. You press the dodge button right before an enemy attack lands. This move lets you slip past danger and sets you up for a counterattack. Most players use the default dodge button, but you can change it in the settings if you want. Try to keep your finger ready, especially when you see enemies winding up for a big hit.

You can dodge in any direction. Sideways dodges work best for most attacks. If you dodge at the last second, you trigger a Perfect Dodge. This slows down time for a moment, giving you a chance to plan your next move. Practice dodging against different enemy types. Bosses often have longer attack animations, so watch them closely.

Tip: After a successful dodge, tap the basic attack button to perform a Dodge Counter. This move deals extra damage and helps fill the enemy’s Daze Gauge.

Chain Attack Setup

Setting up chain attacks in ZZZ makes your combos stronger and helps you control the fight. Here’s how you can get started:

Stun the Enemy First

Attack your target until their Daze Gauge fills up. When the gauge is full, the enemy becomes stunned and can’t move.

Use Heavy Attacks on Stunned Enemies

Once the enemy is stunned, hit them with a heavy attack. This triggers the Chain Attack sequence.

Always Trigger a Bangboo’s Chain Attack

At the end of the Chain Attack mini-game, pick your equipped Bangboo. This move also triggers the Chain Attack of the character you didn’t select, giving you more hits.

Try Ending a Chain Attack with a Support

If you finish with a Support unit, you can activate a Quick Assist. This acts like a hidden extra hit and boosts your damage.

Here’s a quick look at the main mechanics you’ll use:

Mechanic	Description
Chain Attacks	Core part of combat, adapted from fighting games for PvE action-RPG.
Manual Mode	You can exploit DPS windows; practice helps you master this.
Auto Mode	Chain Attacks trigger after a heavy attack when the Daze meter is full.
Heavy Attack Examples	Final hit of basic combo, Dodge Counters, Quick Assists, Special Attacks, EX Special Attacks.
Preventing Chain Attacks	Hold down Attack or Special Attack to keep the enemy Dazed longer and continue your combo.

Try these setups in your next battle. You’ll notice your damage and control improve fast!

Perfect Dodge

Perfect Dodge Timing

You want to master Perfect Dodge in ZZZ? Timing is everything. You need to press the dodge button just before an enemy attack lands. This move triggers a slow-motion effect, giving you a short window to reposition or start a combo. When you dodge at the last moment, your character becomes invulnerable for a brief time. You can use this chance to avoid damage and set up your next attack.

Here are some tips to help you nail the timing:

Watch for enemy charge animations. Many attacks have a clear wind-up or an orange flash before they strike.
Practice dodging right after you see the orange flash. This is your cue to react.
Use side-jumping to avoid attacks that come straight at you. It works well against most enemies.
Try the Assist Counter training in the Compendium. This mode helps you get the timing down until it feels natural.

Tip: Regular practice makes Perfect Dodge easier. The more you play, the better your reflexes get.

Enemy Patterns

Every enemy in ZZZ has its own attack style. If you want to dodge perfectly, you need to learn these patterns. Bosses often telegraph their moves with big animations or color flashes. Regular enemies attack faster but have simpler patterns. Elite enemies mix things up, so stay alert.

Here’s what you should look for:

Study the way enemies move before they attack. Some swing wide, others charge straight.
Recognize unblockable attacks. These often glow or flash orange. You can’t block them, but you can dodge them.
Practice against bosses. Their attacks are slower, so you have more time to react. Try to memorize their combos and look for the orange flash before each big hit.

If you analyze enemy patterns, you’ll start to dodge without thinking. You’ll see the signs and react in time.

Dodge Counter

After you pull off a Perfect Dodge, you get a chance to strike back. This is called a Dodge Counter. You just tap the basic attack button right after dodging. Your character will hit hard, deal extra damage, and stay safe for a moment. Dodge Counter counts as a heavy attack, so it helps fill the enemy’s Daze Gauge fast.

Here’s a quick table to show how Dodge Counter works:

Mechanic	Description
Perfect Dodge	Evade an attack at the last moment. You get a short invulnerability window.
Dodge Counter	Press Basic Attack after dodging. Deals high damage and counts as heavy attack.
Damage Impact	Lets you punish enemies and boost your overall damage output.

Note: You can also use EX Special Attack after a Perfect Dodge for even more damage.

If you combine Perfect Dodge with Dodge Counter, you control the fight. You avoid damage, punish enemies, and keep your combos going. Try practicing this sequence until it feels automatic. You’ll see your skills improve every time you play.

Chain Attacks

Chaining After Dodge

You just nailed a Perfect Dodge. Now what? This is your chance to turn defense into offense. Chaining attacks right after dodging lets you keep the pressure on your enemy. You want to act fast, because the slow-motion window gives you a big advantage.

Here are some strategies you can use after a successful dodge:

Strategy	Description
Use Stun Character	Stun characters fill the Daze Gauge quickly. They stop enemies from moving and boost your damage.
Activate Chain Attack	Hit a stunned enemy with a heavy attack to trigger a Chain Attack. This deals lots of damage.
Utilize Support Character	Pick a Support character during Chain Attack. You get buffs and your team hits harder.
Attack with Buffs	After your Support character attacks, switch to your Attack character. You get bonus damage.
Use Ultimate	When your Decibel Rating is high, use your Ultimate. Your Attack character will hit even harder.

You can mix these strategies to fit your play style. Try using a Stun character to fill the Daze Gauge, then switch to a heavy attack for a Chain Attack. If you add a Support character, you get buffs that make your next hits stronger. When your Decibel Rating is maxed out, unleash your Ultimate for huge damage.

Tip: Always watch your Daze Gauge. When it’s full, you can stun the enemy and start a powerful combo.

Combo Tips

Combos in ZZZ feel amazing when you get the timing right. You want to link dodges, counters, and chain attacks for the best results. Timing matters a lot. If you attack right after stunning an enemy, you hit them when they’re most vulnerable.

Here are some tips to help you build strong combos:

React Quickly After Dodging

Don’t wait. As soon as you dodge, tap the basic attack button for a Dodge Counter. This move counts as a heavy attack and fills the Daze Gauge fast.

Trigger Chain Attacks on Stunned Enemies

When the enemy is stunned, use a heavy attack to start a Chain Attack. You can add Support and Attack characters for extra hits.

Coordinate with Ultimate Abilities

If your Decibel Rating is high, use your Ultimate during a Chain Attack. This boosts your damage and helps you finish fights faster.

Mix Dodges and Attacks

Try dodging, then countering, then chaining attacks. This keeps your combo going and makes it hard for enemies to fight back.

Practice Against Different Enemies

Bosses and elites have longer attack animations. Use this time to set up your combos and chain attacks.

The timing of your chain attacks changes everything. If you wait too long, you miss your chance. If you act right after a Perfect Dodge, you can start a combo that deals massive damage. Try to coordinate your chain attacks with your team’s abilities. When you use your Ultimate at the right moment, you get the most out of your combo.

Note: The best combos use dodges, counters, chain attacks, and ultimates together. Practice linking these moves until it feels natural.

You’ll notice your damage goes up and fights get easier. Keep practicing, and you’ll master chain attacks in no time.

Advanced Tips

Spatial Awareness

You want to win more fights in ZZZ? Start by paying attention to your surroundings. Good spatial awareness helps you avoid getting trapped or hit by surprise attacks. Always check where you stand in the arena. If you see a wall behind you, move away. Enemies can corner you fast. Try to keep open space around your character. This gives you more room to dodge and counter.

Watch enemy positions. Some enemies attack from a distance, while others rush in close. If you see a group forming, move to the side. This keeps you from getting surrounded. Use the camera to look around. You can spot hidden threats or find a better angle for your next move.

Tip: Stay near the edge of the fight, not in the middle. You get more time to react and can plan your Perfect Dodge.

Mistakes to Avoid

Everyone makes mistakes, but you can learn from them. Here are some common errors players make in ZZZ:

Dodging too early. If you dodge before the attack starts, you miss the Perfect Dodge window.
Forgetting to watch the Daze Gauge. If you ignore it, you lose your chance for a big combo.
Standing still after dodging. Always follow up with a counter or move away.
Ignoring enemy cues. If you miss the orange flash or attack animation, you get hit.
Using heavy attacks at the wrong time. Save them for when the enemy is stunned.

Here’s a quick table to help you remember:

Mistake	How to Fix It
Dodging too early	Wait for the attack animation
Not watching Daze Gauge	Check it before every combo
Standing still	Move or counter right after dodging
Ignoring enemy cues	Watch for flashes and big swings
Wasting heavy attacks	Use them on stunned enemies

If you avoid these mistakes, you’ll see your skills improve fast. Keep practicing, and soon you’ll dodge and chain attacks like a pro.
