Hey all, I strongly believe this is the best build for [Zenyatta] because it provides the highest effective damage increase, the highest stadium cash, the highest healing, and very strong 1v1 potential. This is due to the synergy between [Inner Peace] and [Enlightenment] along with the strongest combination of items for increased DPS. Please note that the healing only works on yourself from this interaction, while the target is affected by [Orb of Discord].

Last season and this season, I have hit All-Star on all roles, and I am consistently a GM [Zenyatta] OTP. I see a lot of players building [Zenyatta] very wrong, and I hope this guide changes that so that all my fellow monks can hit a new PB this season.

Build Code: HPAQ9

Build Update Section

-----------------Mid Season 3-----------------

• Removed [Divine Intervention] as it is not as good on DPS/Supp after its rework.

• Removed [Crusader Hydraulics] due to its interaction change with shield no longer providing damage reduction while damaging your shield while having armour.

• Added [Phantasmic Flux] as a defensive option throughout the build as a replacement to [Divine Intervention].

• Added [Reinforced Titanium] more prominently in the build to compensate for [Crusader Hydraulics] removal and still providing a solid amount of damage reduction and healing.

• Changed [Soul Control] to the preferred round 7 pick due to its buff. After testing I found flexibility and mobility worth its slot in the build.

• Changed round 1 build from armour to AP due to the harmony orb buffs giving yourself and ally more healing means more cash. Its greedy but I think its correct.

• Changed weakness from [Genji] to [Pharah]. [Genji] is much weaker with his [Deflect] nerf and I don't feel like he is a problem anymore. [Pharah] is annoying to deal with as we area projectile hero. This is solved by an early purchase of [Haste Subroutine] for the projectile speed but it can be rough round 1. Consider purchasing on round 2 if she is giving your team grief.

• Updated build code.

-----------------Mid Season 2-----------------

• Added [Divine Intervention] as an optional item from round 4 onwards. This item is consistently very good against any hit that will proc it which tend to be the more dangerous kind of incoming damage. Highly recommend.

• Added optional inclusion of [Soul Control] for round 7 This power got buffed and is now worth consideration. Round 7 decide whether you need more damage or more survivability.

• Updated matchups due to [Kiriko]'s [Clone Conjuration] build nerf which used to cause real problems but now is relatively tame.
