Prophet's Eye

Lore & Background

Modern Proxies rarely encounter physical evidence of the Eye, though references appear in encrypted logs found within deep Hollows. Scholars suggest that if the artifact exists, it may have been consumed by the very reality it sought to observe. The legend serves as a cautionary tale about the dangers of seeking too much knowledge from the Hollows, reinforcing why standard Proxy protocols emphasize containment over exploration.

Reader's Guide

While the Prophet's Eye is primarily a lore artifact, its conceptual mechanics align with certain combat systems in Zenless Zone Zero that focus on detection and vision. Agents specializing in Support or Technical roles often benefit from gear sets that enhance awareness or reveal enemy weaknesses, mirroring the 'Eye' motif. When building teams for deep Hollow exploration, prioritize artifacts that boost Critical Rate or Elemental Damage to counter high-level anomalies. Synergize with Agents who have skills related to vision or prediction, such as those capable of revealing hidden enemies or extending action windows. Avoid equipping this concept in pure DPS builds unless the artifact provides specific damage buffs, as its lore suggests utility over raw power.
