W-Engine effect
Tranquil Blossom
CRIT DMG is increased by 30%. When the equipper lands a hit with a Basic Attack, Special Attack, or Aftershock, they gain 1 stack of a buff. Each stack increases the equipper's CRIT DMG by an additional 10%, stacking up to 3 times. The effect lasts for 30s, with each stack's duration calculated separately, and can only be triggered once per use of a skill. With all 3 stacks, the equipper's Electric DMG increases by 20%. *Stats shown are at Base level.

How to Get This W-Engine
Pull it from Signal Search using Master Tapes / Encrypted Master Tapes (bought with Polychrome) — S-rank W-Engines get their own banner, usually alongside the matching character's banner.
Trade for it at the Gadget Shop's Box Galaxy section (Sixth Street): costs W-Engine Components + W-Engine Chips + Denny; Chips come from disassembling spare W-Engines.
A handful of A/B-rank W-Engines unlock through Proxy Primer trials or as story/event rewards instead of the gacha — not every W-Engine is pullable.

Official Artwork / Lore
If a storm subdued still has the power to save a certain person... The ringing of the old sword in its crate speaks of the "good" old days that one doesn't want to remember. "Nekomata, put it down. No, there's no secret... Nicole, please let me explain, she was the one who started it..." — Anby, just a typical day with the Cunning Hares.

How to read this W-Engine page
Every W-Engine has 5 Refinement ranks (R1→R5): refinement ONLY strengthens the passive effect — the numbers in the table above run from left (R1, unrefined) to right (R5, max refinement via 4 duplicates or Overclock materials); Base ATK and the Advanced Stat (CRIT Rate/CRIT DMG/ATK%/PEN Ratio/Anomaly Proficiency...) do NOT change with refinement, only with the engine's level. "Best Agents for this W-Engine" prioritizes agents whose real build actually recommends this engine; if that data isn't available yet, the page falls back to agents sharing the same specialty as a rough guide. "Alternatives of the same specialty" lists other W-Engines with the same role — useful when you don't own the engine shown on this page.
FAQ
What is Severed Innocence in Zenless Zone Zero?
Severed Innocence is a rank S W-Engine built for the Attack specialty in Zenless Zone Zero — equip it on an Agent of the matching specialty to unlock the full passive effect; see the base stats and the full R1→R5 Refinement table in the sections above.
Which Agents should use Severed Innocence?
Severed Innocence fits Attack specialty Agents best, with 2 recommended characters including Anton, Soldier 0 - Anby — see the full list with portraits in the "Best Agents for this W-Engine" section above.
How much Denny and material does it take to upgrade Severed Innocence, and where do I farm it?
Leveling Severed Innocence through every milestone takes roughly 4 W-Engine components and Denny ×400,000, Attack Component ×4, Reinforced Attack Component ×32 Denny combined — the components drop from Combat Simulation; see the exact breakdown per milestone and the Battery cost in the "How Much You Need" and "Where to Farm" sections above.
Is Overclocking Severed Innocence worth it?
Overclocking only strengthens Severed Innocence's passive effect from ★1 up to ★5 (5 copies) — it never changes Base ATK or the sub-stat, so getting the base copy matters far more; treat extra copies as a bonus.
Where do I get Severed Innocence?
Mostly through Signal Search gacha (Polychrome); a few A/B-rank W-Engines are tradeable at the Gadget Shop's Box Galaxy or come from story/event rewards — see the "How to Get" section above for details.
