Sunna is a Physical Support Agent built to make team rotations faster, burst windows cleaner, and damage output more consistent. She does not chase personal DPS. Instead, she amplifies your carry through ATK buffs, Ether Veil control, and Cat’s Gaze, a mark that lets teammates deal credited damage without Sunna staying on-field.
Quick Build Overview
| Category | Recommendation |
|---|---|
| Role | Physical Support |
| Core Scaling | ATK (Initial ATK) |
| Key Stats | ATK%, Energy Regen |
| Playstyle | EX setup → Quick Assist → Swap |
| Field Time | Very Low |
What Makes Sunna Strong
Sunna’s value comes from three core mechanics working together:
- Angelic Chord-ination – A long-duration ATK buff that scales directly from Sunna’s initial ATK.
- Ether Veil: Delusion Reprise – A field effect that boosts team ATK and increases Stun damage when her Additional Ability is active.
- Cat’s Gaze – A debuff that teammates can detonate for large Attribute damage credited to them, not Sunna.
This design lets Sunna multiply team damage while staying off-field most of the time. Her best builds lean into ATK scaling and Energy regeneration so she can keep these effects active every rotation.
Best Stat Priorities (What to Build First)
Sunna’s build is simple once you understand her scaling.
Main focus
- ATK% – Directly increases the strength of Angelic Chord-ination.
- Energy Regen – Keeps her EX Special Attack ready for every rotation.
Drive Disc main stats
| Drive Disc Slot | Main Stat |
|---|---|
| Slot 4 | ATK% |
| Slot 5 | ATK% |
| Slot 6 | Energy Regen |
Substat priority
| Priority | Stat |
|---|---|
| 1 | ATK% |
| 2 | CRIT Rate / CRIT DMG |
| 3 | PEN |
Sunna does not need Anomaly stats or Impact. Her damage contribution comes from enabling teammates, not scaling herself.
Best Drive Disc Sets for Sunna
Recommended Sets
| Set | Why It Works |
|---|---|
| Moonlight Lullaby (4pc) | Energy Regen + team DMG buff on EX/Ultimate |
| Swing Jazz (2pc) | Extra Energy Regen for smoother rotations |
| Hormone Punk (2pc) | Helps reach ATK scaling thresholds |
Moonlight Lullaby (4-piece)
This is Sunna’s strongest set for most teams.
- The 2-piece Energy Regen helps maintain EX uptime.
- The 4-piece effect boosts team damage every time Sunna uses EX or Ultimate, which fits her rotation naturally.
This set stays active with minimal effort and rewards clean support play.
Best 2-piece Pairings
- Swing Jazz – If you want smoother Energy flow.
- Hormone Punk – If you need more ATK to hit buff thresholds.
Choose Energy Regen if rotations feel tight. Choose ATK if you are still climbing toward the ATK cap for her Core Passive.
Best W-Engines for Sunna
| W-Engine | Strength |
|---|---|
| Thoughtbop | Best-in-slot, Energy regen + team DMG |
| Kaboom the Cannon | Easy stacking team ATK |
| Slice of Time | Energy + Decibel recovery |
Best-in-Slot: Thoughtbop
Thoughtbop matches Sunna’s kit perfectly.
- Restores Energy while she stays off-field.
- Buffs team damage when she uses her EX Special Attack.
- Adds extra ATK at full stacks, which directly improves her support scaling.
If you own this W-Engine, Sunna becomes extremely consistent.
Strong Alternatives
- Kaboom the Cannon – Grants stacking team ATK buffs whenever allies hit enemies.
- Slice of Time – Helps refill Energy and Decibels during dodge, assist, and chain-heavy teams.
Free-to-play options still work well because Sunna’s kit does the heavy lifting.
Skill Priority (Upgrade Order)
Upgrade Sunna with intention. You do not need to max everything.
| Skill | Priority |
|---|---|
| Core Skill | Highest |
| Special Attack | High |
| Chain Attack | Medium |
| Assist | Low |
| Basic Attack | Lowest |
| Dodge | Lowest |
- Core Skill – This defines her ATK buff and Cat’s Gaze scaling.
- Special Attack – Enables Angelic Chord-ination, Ether Veil, and Quick Assists.
- Chain Attack – Improves Ultimate healing and burst flow.
- Assist – Optional; useful for Daze but not critical.
- Basic Attack / Dodge – Lowest priority.
This order keeps her support loop strong without wasting materials.
How to Play Sunna (Rotation Explained)
Sunna plays best when you treat her as a setup-and-swap character.
- Enter with EX Special Attack
- Applies Angelic Chord-ination.
- Summons Bubblegum.
- Opens Ether Veil before the heavy hit.
- Trigger Quick Assist
- Swap directly into your Attack or Anomaly carry.
- Start damage inside Ether Veil.
- Detonate Cat’s Gaze
- Teammates trigger the mark.
- Damage scales from the triggering agent, not Sunna.
- Maintain Marks Off-field
- Bubblegum re-applies Cat’s Gaze using Claw Sharpeners.
- Ether Veil and Anomaly triggers refill stacks.
This loop keeps damage flowing even while Sunna stays off-field.
Best Team Compositions for Sunna
Sunna fits best with Attack-focused carries and teams that value clean Stun windows.
Attack Carry Teams
- Ye Shunguang + Sunna + Stun Support
- Sunna accelerates burst entry.
- Ether Veil boosts Stun damage and ATK.
- Cat’s Gaze detonates quickly during Stun phases.
Anomaly Teams (Conditional)
Sunna can work with Anomaly Agents, but she needs the right partner to activate her Additional Ability. Without it, her Stun synergy loses value.
Use her here only if the team naturally triggers Ether Veil and Cat’s Gaze consistently.
Mindscape Recommendations (Duplicates)
- M1 – Best early upgrade. Grants Energy on entry and adds DEF reduction to Cat’s Gaze.
- M2 – Major power spike. Improves ATK buffs, Claw Sharpener generation, and Cat’s Gaze damage.
- M6 – Luxury option. Turns Sunna into a short-duration sub-DPS with guaranteed CRITs.
Sunna performs well at M0, but M1 and M2 noticeably smooth rotations and damage scaling.
Sunna is not a flashy carry, but she quietly fixes rotations, amplifies burst windows, and adds real damage through Cat’s Gaze. When built correctly, she makes your main DPS feel stronger without demanding field time.
If you value clean swaps, reliable buffs, and consistent team damage, Sunna is one of the most efficient Support Agents you can build in Zenless Zone Zero. Play Now!
