Zeta
Race: Human Element: Style: Hybrid DPS-Defense Skybound Art: Resolute Strike Weapon Specialty: Spear Tier: S+ Tier |
Meet Zeta, your trusty ally in Granblue Fantasy Relink. Armed with a spear, she’s all about those airborne combos to give her foes a taste of punishment while defying gravity. Nail those timings, and Zeta seamlessly continues her assault, leading up to a devastating attack.
In the realm of Granblue Fantasy Relink, allies or companions aren’t just NPCs; they’re characters you recruit to join your party. Whether you’re exploring or in the heat of combat, these characters have their own flair, from the element they wield to their weapon expertise, combat style, personality, and appearance.
Building your party is an art. You can assemble a crew of four, with the character you control snug in the leftmost slot. However, in the main storyline, The Captain has to be in the mix. Outside the main tale, though, you’re free to take the reins as any character you fancy. It’s your party, after all!

How to Recruit Zeta
To enlist Zeta into your crew in Granblue Fantasy Relink, use a Crewmate Card at Siero’s Knickknack Shack. The option to recruit characters becomes accessible right from the beginning of Chapter 4: Skies Forever Blue.
Crewmate Cards, necessary for recruitment, can be obtained from Siero as you progress through the main campaign. Here are the chapters where you can acquire Crewmate Cards from Siero:
- Chapter 4: Skies Forever Blue: x1 Crewmate Card
- Chapter 6: In Search of Hope: x1 Crewmate Card
- Chapter 8: Relink: x1 Crewmate Card
In addition to obtaining Crewmate Cards through the main storyline, players can also earn them as rewards for completing specific side quests available at a town’s “Quest Counter” in GBF Relink.
Playing With Zeta
Zeta, a member of the Society, dedicated to hunting primal beasts, wields the formidable Arvess, a seal weapon. Her combat style focuses on counters and agile aerial attacks.
Zeta’s prowess lies in her aerial assaults. After executing for a combo or specific skills, she can high jump off her opponent. While airborne, pressing initiates a dive bomb, and with precise timing, another triggers an attack loop.
The △ button sets Zeta up for a counter, leading to a high jump if successful. While airborne, or unleashes distinct attacks.
Her standout skill is Signo Drive (), providing a 25% attack boost to the entire party. In the fire department, Infinite Wonders () lets her unleash a multi-hit piercing beam thrice, inflicting Arvess Fermare for increased damage. Spear of Arvess () involves a lunge attack with a high jump off the enemy upon impact. Realm’s Majesty () sees Zeta preparing to parry and counter, also inflicting Arvess Fermare and high jumping off an enemy.
Zeta introduces unique battle mechanics, reminiscent of the Dragoon class in Final Fantasy. Engaging in mid-air combat, she performs combo loops, requiring precise timing for successive basic attacks to boost her ATK. Completing three loops with a triangle finisher unleashes a powerful attack, afflicting enemies with a special debuff.
Zeta’s aggressive playstyle extends to buffing the entire party’s ATK. Her parry skill not only defends but also launches her into the air to initiate her loop. While mastering Zeta’s mechanics may pose a challenge, the payoff is substantial, especially considering her distinctive battle style focused on dealing maximum damage.
Best Zeta Builds
Zeta DPS Build
I suggest heading to Practice mode to ensure you’re reaching maximum damage when capped at level 65 DMG Limit Break (You’ll reach the damage cap rapidly, even without skills like Combo Booster/Combo Finisher). After that, start incorporating skills that Link Together, Stun Damage, Improved Dodge, Drain, and similar abilities.
Weapon
Brionac
- Brionac, unlocked early in Granblue Fantasy: Relink, is optimal for Zeta’s DPS build. It grants a significant Attack bonus that escalates with upgrades. Use a Wrightstone to imbue it with critical hit damage augmentation for enhanced damage potential.
Skills and Sigils
For a full DPS focus, prioritize offensive skills over support and defensive ones. While solo play allows flexibility, matchmaking benefits from some support skills. Now, let’s delve into the recommended skills:
- Infinite Wonders
- Spear of Arvess
- Signo Drive
- Wingclipper
Zeta’s rotation, though not intricate, relies on her mechanics. Key passive skills include her chain jump attacks and Arvess Fermare, which debuffs enemies, increasing damage taken. Begin with Signo Drive, then trigger Infinite Wonders for the debuff. Utilize Spear of Arvess for aerial combos, reserving Wingclipper for crowd control.
To amplify Zeta’s damage output, prioritize the following sigils:
- Attack Power
- Combo Booster
- Critical Damage
- Critical Hit Rate
- Damage Cap
- Break Assassin
- Exploiter
- Tyranny
Explotier and Tyranny are pivotal for Zeta’s glass cannon build, enabling her to break enemy parts and unleash devastating critical hits. Ensure a healer or tank accompanies her for survivability.
