What is Hamster Cage Pass in Zenless Zone Zero?
Hamster Cage Pass is a rare (S-Rank) item in ZZZ. It is a material used when raising skill levels.
This item allows you to level up your Agent’s skills, including Basic Attack, Dodge, Assist, Special Attack, and Chain Attack, to level 12. This essentially maxes out the potential of that skill, making your Agent stronger.
In the game’s lore, the ring represents a pass granting access to a special training facility called Hamster Cage.
Hamster Cage Pass official description in ZZZ
A delicate ring containing a disposable access chip allows its wearer to access the Hamster Cage, a top-notch simulation training center. The Hamster Cage provides the most extensive and professional combat training, on par with the best-equipped training area in the Hollow Investigative Association.
How to use Hamster Cage Pass in Zenless Zone Zero
Hamster Cage Pass allows you to push your Agents’ combat skills beyond the usual level cap, unlocking their full potential. Here’s a breakdown of how to use it.
Requirements before using Hamster Cage Pass
- Agent level– Your Agent needs to be at their maximum level, which is level 60.
- Skill level – The specific skill you want to upgrade must already be level 11. This essentially unlocks the final upgrade tier for that skill.
- Materials and Dennies—This item also requires specific upgrade materials and a certain amount of Dennies. Make sure you have these prepared beforehand.
Using Hamster Cage Pass
- Navigate to the section where you can enhance your Agent’s skills within the character menu.
- Choose the specific skill you want to upgrade. Remember, this skill needs to be already at level 11.
- Once you’ve selected the skill, confirm your choice to use the Hamster Cage Pass.
It is important to note that fully maxing out an Agent’s skills requires a total of five Hamster Cage Passes. Plan your upgrades accordingly.
Without using this item, it’s impossible to unlock the final skill level for any character. These upgrades offer significant boosts to your Agent’s skills, so they’re worth aiming for.
