Best Jane Doe W-Engines and Drive Discs in Zenless Zone Zero
Jane Doe performs best when her gear supports Physical anomaly output instead of generic damage stacking. This guide focuses specifically on the best W-Engines, Drive Disc sets, main stats, and substat priorities players should use when optimizing Jane Doe.
If you only get one part of Jane Doe's build right, make it her gear direction.
That is because Jane Doe is not a conventional attacker who just wants broad offensive stats. She is a Physical Anomaly Agent, and that means her W-Engine and Drive Disc choices should strengthen anomaly pressure first, then support overall uptime and consistency.
This guide focuses only on the equipment side of her build.

Jane Doe gear philosophy
Before picking names, it helps to understand the rule behind the recommendations.
Jane Doe wants gear that helps her:
build Physical anomaly faster
improve anomaly-driven damage value
maintain strong on-field performance
avoid wasting stat budget on the wrong priorities
If a piece of gear looks generally strong but does not support her actual anomaly identity, it is usually a weaker choice than a more specialized option.

Top premium direction
Strong alternatives
The exact ranking between these alternatives can vary between guide sources, but the broad pattern is stable: anomaly-supporting W-Engines are the priority.
Best Jane Doe Drive Disc sets
The most widely recommended Jane Doe setup is built around Physical synergy plus anomaly efficiency.
Standard set plan
For most players, the safest path is to start with the 4-piece foundation and then use the 2-piece slots to finish the stat profile you need most.
Best main stats for Jane Doe
This is the most consistent recommendation for Jane Doe because it directly supports the way she actually deals damage.
Best substats for Jane Doe
Priority order
Anomaly Proficiency
ATK
Energy Regen
If you are comparing pieces, Jane usually gains more from clean anomaly-oriented rolls than from trying to imitate a crit-centric attacker build.
Common build mistakes
Jane Doe's gear can go wrong in predictable ways. The most common mistakes are:
building too much generic attack without enough anomaly support
forcing crit-style expectations onto an anomaly DPS
using off-theme Drive Disc pieces just because they have higher raw rarity
ignoring Physical synergy when choosing set pieces
These mistakes often make Jane feel weaker than she really is.

Final verdict
Jane Doe's best gear setup is very consistent once you stop treating her like a normal attacker. Her best W-Engines and Drive Discs are the ones that strengthen anomaly pressure, Physical synergy, and smooth on-field output.
For most players, the simplest answer is still the best one: use anomaly-focused equipment, start from Fanged Metal, and build around her real damage identity.
