Who Should Use Thunder Metal

Ranks and notes come from each Agent's build guide on Zenless Builds.

Grace
GraceDisc set #1 of 3
4-pc Thunder Metal + 2-pc Puffer Electro
The strongest set overall: 28% ATK while an enemy is Shocked, which Grace applies herself. Best in mono-Shock teams and still on top in Disorder teams if you arrange for most of her buildup to happen during Shock. Swap 2-piece Puffer Electro for Swing Jazz if you lack Energy.
Harumasa
HarumasaDisc set #1 of 3
4-pc Thunder Metal + 2-pc Hormone Punk
The biggest ATK% source of any set, so it's the strongest when well managed, but it requires a Shocked enemy, so only use it in teams with another Electric Agent. Pair with 2-piece Hormone Punk or Astral Voice (recommended); Branch & Blade Song, Shadow Harmony or Woodpecker Electro also work.
Anton
AntonDisc set #1 of 4
4-pc Thunder Metal + 2-pc Woodpecker Electro
Strongest when enemies stay Shocked. It gives +28% combat ATK for as long as Shock lasts, multiplying all of Anton's ATK. It fits an on-field playstyle, for example with Trigger. Hormone Punk or Puffer Electro can fill the 2-piece slot.
Soldier 0 - Anby
Soldier 0 - AnbyDisc set #2 of 4
4-pc Shadow Harmony + 2-pc Thunder Metal
Use 2-piece Thunder Metal (+10% Electric DMG) once your CRIT Rate is already high, for example with Cordis Germina.
Cissia
CissiaDisc set #4 of 4
4-pc Thunder Metal + 2-pc Swing Jazz
Gives a lot of combat ATK, but it only works in mono-Electric teams (e.g. with Seed and Trigger) or with routes and Bangboo that keep Shock up during Stun windows.
Claret Flint
Claret FlintDisc set #4 of 4
4-pc Thorned Rose + 2-pc Thunder Metal
It gives +10% Electric DMG and is roughly on par with Soul Rock. The two are so close that a single substat roll can decide it. It can pull ahead when Claret uses Catty Luck (which already gives plenty of DEF%).
Yanagi
YanagiDisc set #4 of 4
4-pc Thunder Metal + 2-pc Chaos Jazz
+10% Electric DMG and +28% ATK while an enemy is Shocked. It can beat Chaos Jazz on paper, but needs discs with many Anomaly Proficiency rolls and a strict rotation. Best in Yanagi hypercarry or mono-Electric teams; worse when partners like Burnice or Vivian trigger Disorders off-field and remove the Shock.
