ZZZ 3.2 Malaysia Time: Claret Banner & Free Polychromes
Published: 2026-09-10
Version 3.2 "Their Secret Histories" pushed live in Zenless Zone Zero at 11:00 MYT on 9 September 2026. Maintenance started at 06:00 the same morning. All times in this guide are Malaysia Time (GMT+8). Phase 1 runs 21 days, so REDX Game Proxies in KL, Petaling Jaya, and Ipoh have until 14:59 MYT on 30 September to pull Claret on her Bloodmoon Rising banner or the Nangong Yu rerun.
The banner rotation flips at that same 30 September maintenance. Roxy debuts on Cindernight Respite. Promeia's Cold Rain Wanes in the Night rerun locks the second-half slot through 20 October per Gematsu's 3.2 preview. Wait past 30 September and both Phase 1 characters vanish from the featured rotation until a distant rerun cycle that HoYoverse has not committed to on any Version 3.x point of the current roadmap.
Armorer specialty rewrites the DEF stat line
Claret is the first Armorer in Zenless Zone Zero, and her specialty breaks two long-standing build habits at once for anyone coming from Attack, Anomaly, Stun, Defense, or Support agents in prior patches. Damage scales off DEF rather than ATK. CRIT Rate stays useful past the usual 100% cap. Her core passive, Pale Blood Feast, "converts all of her skill damage into Sharp DMG and uses DEF as the damage multiplier," Game8 confirms in the Crimson Thirst guide.
The optimal rotation stacks Sharpness first, enters Crimson Inscription to arm the moveset, and then swings the Blood Axe in rapid succession to compound Sharp damage on the elite target. StarForge sustains damage while Gash builds on the target, triggering Maim on burst. Her signature W-Engine Crimson Thirst hands over 48% DEF as its main stat, 25% CRIT Rate, 15% Electric DMG, and a 12% Electric Sharp DMG buff that lasts 40 seconds and refreshes off EX Specials or Maim.
Nangong Yu holds Phase 1's Stun slot. She is the Angels of Delusion leader and an Ether S-Rank. Her rerun banner Axiom of Captivation runs the full 21-day window with W-Engine Neon Fantasies attached. Roxy in Phase 2 is Wind Stun. Promeia reruns beside her on Cold Rain Wanes in the Night.
Every 3.2 event window worth logging in for
HoYoverse packed five limited events into Phase 1 and Phase 2. The Surprise Screening Plan is a 14-day check-in that hands out one Angels of Delusion outfit once you clear all check-in tasks. Skip a day and the outfit stays sealed until the next patch cycle.
- Clink, Clank, Pinball Knight! — Craft a pinball machine with Kahkiboo; Challenge Mode delivers a second Angels of Delusion outfit on the Angels Support Operation page.
- Diary of an Orbie Parent — Log-in pet-raising loop, pays Polychromes and Tuning Calibrators.
- Chronicles of the Hobbling Crow — Detective missions strung across the Vyrium story arc.
- Shadow Chase Showdown — Timed combat gauntlet with mixed materials plus Polychromes.
Cumulative login bonuses across the combined 3.2 to 3.3 window pay out 10 Encrypted Master Tapes and 10 Boopons that any active Proxy can collect just by logging in daily through the two-patch stretch. That is 10 free pulls on the character banner before any store spending.
Why Claret is a friendlier S-rank for F2P Malaysians
DEF scaling matters for economy because most Proxies already build DEF sub-stats and main pieces for Deadly Assault survival, which means the same farmed Disc Drive inventory feeds Claret's damage ceiling directly without a fresh grind. Claret re-uses that farmed inventory instead of asking for a fresh ATK ceiling. Malaysian free-to-play players who grind on prepaid data feel it directly: fewer duplicate discs, less Ether cost, and faster gear rotation across the 21-day window.
Nangong Yu's rerun is the quieter save. Ether Stun is a bracket that thin rosters skip when the meta rewards Ice or Physical stun. Any Proxy who saved last year now clears an old debt without spending on the harder-to-pull debut character. Boleh tahan if your inventory shows both Nangong Yu and Claret at M0R1 by 30 September. The pair covers Sons of Calydon speed comps for the rest of the patch cycle.
One caveat: Roxy's Wind Stun arrives on 30 September and immediately fills the "second Stun" slot for teams that skip Nangong Yu. Weigh Phase 2 pulls before committing all Phase 1 Polychromes to Claret.
Ringgit math for the 180-pull worst-case guarantee
ZZZ's character banner sits on 90-pity with a 50/50 split, so the losing-lose worst case is 180 pulls for one guaranteed featured S-Rank. Each Encrypted Master Tape costs 160 Polychromes, so 180 pulls translates to 28,800 Polychromes. Login rewards, the free-pull cache from cumulative events, and one full battle-pass tier together chip roughly 8,000 Polychromes off that 28,800 ceiling for a paid Proxy who logs in daily through both phases.
Apple bills the 980 Monochrome pack at USD 14.99. Once App Store forex and rounding land on the Maybank card statement, that USD price sits close to RM 70 in September 2026 rates, with Apple's currency premium alone eating between RM 3 and RM 6 per pack across the ladder. REDX Game's MYR-native price for that same 980 Monochrome pack lists a few ringgit lower on the ZZZ top-up page. There is no USD-to-MYR uplift and no App Store commission to absorb.
The gap widens on the 6480 Monochrome premium pack. Apple's USD 99.99 sticker converts north of RM 470 by the time the card statement clears. Buying that same pack in ringgit through REDX Game saves the full conversion premium. Across the 180-pull worst case, MYR-native pricing typically banks RM 40 to RM 80 versus the App Store route. That is enough for the RM 20 Battle Pass on top.
DuitNow QR settles the top-up in about 1 to 3 minutes on REDX Game's advertised delivery window, which is the same service target the platform runs against for every direct-top-up brand on release days. Proxies in Johor Bahru can time their pulls to the maintenance-end minute without card-3DS delays.
Malaysia-Time FAQ for ZZZ 3.2 pulls and events
What time did ZZZ 3.2 launch in Malaysia?
Maintenance began 06:00 MYT on 9 September 2026, and servers opened at 11:00 MYT the same morning. Login rewards started counting from that server-open minute.
When does Claret's Bloodmoon Rising banner end?
Phase 1 closes at 14:59 MYT on 30 September 2026. Pity accumulated on Claret's banner carries to Phase 2's character banner under standard ZZZ rules, but the featured S-Rank guarantee resets when the featured slot changes.
Is Claret worth pulling for F2P Proxies in Malaysia?
Yes for players who already have a stable Anomaly or Attack DPS. Claret is a Sharp DMG main DPS whose DEF-scaling recycles gear you already own. Skip if your roster still lacks a reliable Stun, because Nangong Yu or Roxy solves a harder problem.
When do Roxy and Promeia banners start?
Phase 2 begins at the 30 September maintenance and runs through 20 October. Roxy debuts on Cindernight Respite, and Promeia reruns on Cold Rain Wanes in the Night.
How do I top up ZZZ Polychromes cheaper than the App Store in Malaysia?
Buy Monochrome packs in MYR through REDX Game using DuitNow QR, Boost, or TNG eWallet. Convert the Monochrome to Polychromes in-game at a 1:1 rate. Skipping App Store forex saves several ringgit per pack.
Which events give free Polychromes in 3.2?
Every 3.2 side event pays Polychromes plus Tuning Calibrators: Surprise Screening Plan, Clink Clank Pinball Knight, Diary of an Orbie Parent, Chronicles of the Hobbling Crow, and Shadow Chase Showdown. Cumulative login also hands 10 Encrypted Master Tapes. That is roughly 10 free pulls.
Malaysian Proxy tips for the 3.2 grind
Download the 8 GB patch on home fibre before you head to a KL mamak. Unifi 5G rate-caps hit HoYoverse's CDN hard on release day. Petaling Jaya and Shah Alam players report stable download rates through Time and Maxis fibre by the second night after launch, so anyone still hitting a stalled queue on release day should switch to home broadband before spending on Polychromes. Tak perlu tunggu lama if you queue the download during the maintenance window itself.
Malaysian pro-scene fixtures like Team SMG and Selangor Red Giants keep Kuala Lumpur on the SEA esports map for competitive titles, while HoYoverse launches in Malaysia tend to lean on creator streams and community meet-ups instead of formal tournaments. Local ZZZ content creators stream Version 3.2 cutscenes to Bahasa audiences through the launch weekend. Follow Malay-language creators on Twitch if you want commentary in the local dialect.
For the fastest 1 to 3 minute top-up loop, log into REDX Game, pick your Monochrome pack, and pay with DuitNow QR. The Polychromes convert in-game at maintenance-clear. Senang gila compared with card 3DS queues at Ipoh or Kuching peak hours.
