Jane Build: Best Drive Discs & Stats (ZZZ)

Jane is an S-rank Anomaly agent in Zenless Zone Zero. This Jane Drive Disc build lists the sets, main stats and substats to aim for, and the Area Patrol stage that drops them, as of version 3.2.

4-piece: Fanged Metal
2-piece: PEN Ratio +8%, Anomaly Mastery +8%, Anomaly Proficiency +30 or ATK +10%
Disk 4: Anomaly Proficiency
Disk 5: PEN Ratio
Disk 6: Anomaly Mastery
Substats: Anomaly Proficiency > ATK% > PEN
W-Engine: Sharpened Stinger
Farm at: Fist and Gun

Best Drive Disc sets for Jane

Jane's 4-piece set is Fanged Metal. No other 4-piece set is recommended, so there is no substitute worth farming.

Fanged Metal Best in slot

4-piece: Whenever a squad member inflicts Assault on an enemy, the equipper deals 35% additional DMG to the target for 12s

2-piece: Physical DMG +10%. Drops from Fist and Gun.

2-piece options

For the 2-piece slot the bonus matters, not the set's name. Several sets share the same 2-piece bonus, so Jane can take it from whichever one you have spare pieces of:

PEN Ratio +8%: Puffer Electro
Anomaly Mastery +8%: Phaethon's Melody
Anomaly Proficiency +30: any of Freedom Blues, Chaos Jazz or Feathered Fate (they give the same bonus)
ATK +10%: any of Hormone Punk or Astral Voice (they give the same bonus)

Jane main stats: Disk 4, 5 and 6

Disks 1 to 3 always roll HP, ATK and DEF as their main stat, so the choice is on 4, 5 and 6. A > means "better than"; = means the two are about as good.

Slot	Main stat, best first
Disk 4	Anomaly Proficiency
Disk 5	PEN Ratio > Physical DMG% > ATK%
Disk 6	Anomaly Mastery

Jane substat priority

Roll for Anomaly Proficiency and ATK% first. A disc showing neither of those is rarely worth levelling for Jane, whatever else it has.

ATK%
PEN
Flat ATK

Where to farm Jane's Drive Discs

Fanged Metal drops from the Fist and Gun Area Patrol stage. The other set it drops, Hormone Punk, is also in Jane's build (2-piece option), so every run there is useful.

Madman and Follower	Puffer Electro (2-piece option) Inferno Metal (not in this build)
Sharp Fang and Blunt Axe	Freedom Blues (2-piece option) Polar Metal (not in this build)

Building more than one agent? The Area Patrol Recommender ranks every stage for your whole team at once, and the Drive Disc Stat Guide says which drops to keep while you farm.

Jane W-Engine and skill priority

Sharpened Stinger S-rank, Anomaly Proficiency sub-stat

Jane's signature got much easier to use after her Potential Unlock: Salchow Jump triggers Perfect Dodges and her EXs count as Dash Attacks, so Predatory Instinct stacks hold up reliably. Its big buff and Anomaly Build-Up Rate boost maximise Assault count, though at W1 slightly lower build-up and occasional stack drops can leave it behind Alice's signature.

Skills to level first

Chain Attack
Special Attack
Basic Attack
Dodge
Assist

Agents who also use Fanged Metal

These agents compete with Jane for the same set, which is worth knowing before you hand a good piece to one of them.

Questions

What is the best Drive Disc set for Jane?

Fanged Metal 4-piece. For the 2-piece, any set with PEN Ratio +8%, Anomaly Mastery +8%, Anomaly Proficiency +30 or ATK +10% works.

What main stats should Jane use on Disk 4, 5 and 6?

Disk 4: Anomaly Proficiency. Disk 5: PEN Ratio > Physical DMG% > ATK%. Disk 6: Anomaly Mastery. Disks 1 to 3 have fixed main stats (HP, ATK and DEF), so only their substats matter.

What substats does Jane need?

In priority order: Anomaly Proficiency, ATK%, PEN, Flat ATK. The first two are what make a disc worth levelling for Jane; the rest are tiebreakers.

Where do I farm Jane's Drive Discs?

Fanged Metal drops from the Fist and Gun Area Patrol stage, alongside Hormone Punk. Each run at Lv.60 costs 60 Battery Charge and splits its S-rank discs between the two sets.
