Have you seen Zenless Zone Zero\u2019s Banyue? He\u2019s a big, lion-y robot man with a really cool aesthetic – and a kit to match. As the kids say these days, Hoyoverse really cooked with this one, and he might have the most interesting moveset in the game.<\/p>\n
We now, officially, know that Banyue is an S-rank agent who uses the rupture path and fire element. He\u2019s probably the reason why Komano Manato was kept – or demoted to – an A-rank, who also uses rupture and fire. He\u2019s being powercrept before he even comes out, poor guy, but Banyue is so fun that I can\u2019t even be mad.<\/p>\n
Thanks to leaker Dim, there\u2019s a video showcasing Banyue\u2019s combat animations along with how he appears in the menu. It seems he uses golden baoding balls, holding some in his hand and having a few hover around him. During combat, they move around as he throws them with extra arms that sprout out of his back.<\/p>\n
