Claret vs Nangong Yu: ZZZ 3.2 Malaysia Time & Pull Priority
Published: 2026-09-09
Zenless Zone Zero 3.2 "Their Secret Histories" comes back online at 11:00 MYT on 9 September 2026, capping a five-hour maintenance that began at 06:00 MYT. Phase 1 hands Malaysian pullers two S-Rank options that run until 30 September at 04:00 MYT: Claret Flint's debut banner Bloodmoon Rising and Nangong Yu's rerun. Every clock in this piece is Malaysia Time (GMT+8). REDX Game is running MYR Polychrome top-ups for the launch window from its ZZZ page with 1–3 minute delivery advertised, and this article covers the Phase 1 pull priority, the honest pity math, and the Roxy Cindernight Respite banner that follows on 30 September.
Claret vs Nangong Yu: Phase 1 pull-priority breakdown
Both are S-Rank. Each pull costs 160 Polychrome. The hard-pity ceiling on the Exclusive Channel is 90 pulls for either banner. Their combat identity is not the same, though, and 3.2 rewards one of them harder because of the Armorer role it introduces.
- Claret Flint (debut). Attribute: Electric. Specialty: Armorer, brand-new to the roster this patch. W-Engine: Crimson Thirst on the paired channel. Verdict for KL and Petaling Jaya rosters still building Electric cores: pick Claret first, because Armorer is the archetype no existing agent covers.
- Nangong Yu (rerun). Established S-Rank returning alongside Claret. Verdict: skip if his archetype is already handled by your Ether or DPS lineup. Consider only if you never grabbed him the first time and want the coverage.
The tie-breaker is Armorer itself. HoYoverse describes the Specialty as "a new frontline archetype" in the 3.2 patch overview, and Claret is the only S-Rank example on live servers when the maintenance ends. Nangong Yu, valuable as he is, competes with agents already sitting in most Malaysian accounts a year into the game.
What "Their Secret Histories" changes on 9 September
Version 3.2 does more than drop two banners. The Proxies travel to the Shrouded Reef's Vyrium special zone to treat the mutation growing inside their body, and the story reveals TOPS has quietly infiltrated Roscaelifer — the setup that reshapes the next two patches. Three concrete additions land on 9 September:
- The Armorer Specialty, a frontline role designed to rotate defensive layers into burst damage. Claret is its first S-Rank; expect A-Rank followers in 3.3.
- Angels of Delusion outfits, distributed free across the faction. Malaysian players sitting on unused Denny should log in for the giveaway before it retires at the version reset.
- The Season 2 Chapter 5 main story, which opens the Vyrium zone and a new set of Hollow Zero modifiers tied to Roscaelifer.
Roxy's Cindernight Respite arrives 30 September at 04:00 MYT with Wind Stun and a paired W-Engine on the same channel, and it closes at 20 October when Version 3.3 patches in.
The honest pity math for one Claret guarantee
ZZZ's Exclusive Channel guarantees the featured S-Rank at 90 pulls in the worst case, with a 50/50 that resolves to Claret at 80 hard-pity soft-guarantee thanks to the reset from previous limited channels. Do the multiplication and it looks like this in MYR terms Malaysian pullers can plan against.
- 90 pulls × 160 Polychrome = 14,400 Polychrome for the ceiling.
- At App Store Malaysia pricing, the 6,480+1,600 pack sits at RM 499.90 and the 3,280+600 pack at RM 249.90. That works out to roughly RM 1,100 to cover the pity ceiling if you buy top-heavy.
- REDX Game closes some of that gap in ringgit and posts credits inside 1–3 minutes via DuitNow, Boost, or Touch 'n Go — check the live Polychrome pack list before pulling because the pack tiers shift between patches.
Two levers cut that number. Free Polychrome from the 3.2 login rewards, event mail, and the new story chapter typically returns 60–80 pulls across the patch cycle. Save your monthly Inter-Knot Membership rollovers into the first 10-pull batch of Bloodmoon Rising for the pity carry-over. Memang best kalau you dah simpan since 3.1.
Claret's kit and where she slots in Malaysian rosters
Claret is Electric, so she plugs into two established Malaysian meta cores: the Electric Anomaly team built around Harumasa, and the disorder-flex compositions that pair Electric with Fire or Ice for element-swap procs. Her Armorer identity means she wants to sit on the frontline while a Stun agent sets up her burst — Nicole and Rina both work as day-one partners without swapping W-Engines. If your account is Ether-heavy from the Zhu Yuan and Miyabi eras, Claret gives you a real second-team option instead of forcing a third Ether unit.
For pull screenshots, KL and PJ discord clusters (many of them the same rooms following Team SMG's MPL Season 18 run) will be dumping Claret pity progress within the first hour post-maintenance. Watch the 11:00–13:00 MYT window: that is when guarantee tickets and first-copy screenshots dictate whether the community consensus swings toward pulling Claret hard or saving for Roxy in 20 days.
When does ZZZ 3.2 go live in Malaysia?
Servers return at 11:00 MYT on 9 September 2026, five hours after the 06:00 MYT maintenance start. The Claret and Nangong Yu banners open with the same server refresh.
Adakah Claret memang worth 90 pulls untuk pemain Malaysia?
Ya, kalau roster you belum ada Armorer atau Electric main-DPS. The Specialty is brand-new and no A-Rank Armorer exists on live servers yet, so Claret is the only way to slot the role until at least Version 3.3.
How much does one Claret pull cost in MYR terms?
160 Polychrome per pull. Priced against the App Store 980+110 Polychrome pack at RM 74.90, one pull works out to roughly RM 12 before any REDX Game ringgit discount is applied.
When does the Roxy banner start?
Phase 2 opens on 30 September 2026 at 04:00 MYT with Roxy's Cindernight Respite and closes 20 October when Version 3.3 begins. Roxy is S-Rank Wind Stun, not Electric — she is not competing with Claret for the same team slot.
Boleh top up Polychrome guna DuitNow ke Boost di Malaysia?
Semua tiga boleh. REDX Game accepts DuitNow, Boost, Touch 'n Go, and FPX at the ZZZ Polychrome page, with credits landing inside the advertised 1–3 minute window. No linked card or foreign-currency conversion required.
What is the "Their Secret Histories" storyline about?
The Proxies travel to the Shrouded Reef's Vyrium zone to slow the mutation inside their body and discover that TOPS has infiltrated Roscaelifer. It is the pivot chapter for Season 2, and the Hollow Zero modifiers introduced with it stay live through 3.3.
Malaysia-specific launch checklist
Before the 11:00 MYT reset, three moves save real ringgit and real pull anxiety.
- Clear your Battery Charges to 240 tonight — the daily cap is generous but the maintenance freezes regen for five hours on 9 September.
- Pre-fund a top-up in MYR through REDX Game rather than App Store IAP: the ringgit price is lower, DuitNow settles under a minute, and you keep the funds sitting as Polychrome instead of card charges.
- Screenshot your pity counter from the outgoing patch. Bloodmoon Rising is a new channel and the pity carries over from your previous limited pulls, so that screenshot is your only proof if a support ticket becomes necessary.
Malaysian pullers timing this properly should have Claret's guarantee in hand by the 25 September mid-patch mail drop, leaving nine days to save for Roxy before Phase 2 opens. REDX Game keeps the ringgit side sane while HoYoverse handles the pulls.
