Victory briefing
How to beat Zoe & Grizzbolt: the quick answer
A leveled Ground duo, a repaired shield, and a dependable ranged weapon.
How to start the fight
Enter the Rayne Syndicate Tower in the Windswept Hills. The ten-minute tower timer is the real first test, so arrive with repaired gear and a complete ammunition stack.
Recommended gear
Use the best shield and metal armor available. A Crossbow or Three Shot Bow is enough if upgraded; bring a Handgun only if your progression already supports its ammunition.
Best Pals for the fight

Loadout checklist
How to prepare for Zoe & Grizzbolt
Level the whole rotation
Two healthy Ground Pals are better than one overleveled Pal and four passengers.
Repair before entering
Tower attempts consume time even when armor breaks. Start with a full shield and repaired armor.
Bring a real ranged weapon
Grizzbolt is large and readable. Reliable ranged damage matters more than chasing perfect passives here.
Arena execution
Zoe & Grizzbolt fight strategy
Use pillars deliberately
Keep a pillar between the player and long electric lines, then step out only to fire.
Recall before the telegraph lands
Do not leave a Ground Pal standing inside a large area marker just because it has type advantage.
Keep shooting
The player should contribute throughout the ten-minute timer instead of watching the Pal fight alone.
