Anime Paradox X Wiki — How to Get Zid (Atomic)
Zid (Atomic) is the Secret Banner cheat code of Anime Paradox X — full-map All Range Atomic bursts, Atomic Blades maelstroms every 25 seconds, and Who is Running? global AoE that trivializes Infinite and Siege once evolved. At roughly 0.004% drop rate he is among the rarest units in Roblox gacha history, sharing that bracket with Storrk on Paradox. Unlike Sun Jin Wu (Raid) or Igrus (Siege Shop), Zid is pure banner RNG with a mandatory Moonlight Piano evolution item. This guide covers Secret Banner rotation checks, evolution materials, trait targets, and when Zid beats farmable Ichigo.
Secret Banner pulls only
Zid drops from the Secret Summon banner using Gems — not APX Coins, not stage farms, not Robux direct purchase.
Always verify the banner screen shows Zid as the featured Secret before spending. Secret units rotate every few days; pulling off-rotation wastes thousands of Gems from Re-Release codes.
Save Gems from OOPSIES!!, Re-Release!, PARADOX!! (Gem portion), and HolyMoly before committing to a Zid chase — Ichigo remains the smarter first secret for accounts under two weeks old.
Evolve to Zid (Atomic)
Pulling base Zid is step one. Atomic form requires evolution at the Crafting/Evolution NPC with Moonlight Piano — a mandatory material you cannot skip.
Typical evolution stack: 1× base Zid, 1× Moonlight Piano, Rainbow/Green Essences, and Gold (~1,000). Farm essences via Story Nightmare and Re-Release code bundles.
All Range Atomic active hits the entire map for ~50% damage burst on a 120s cooldown — justified by power. Atomic Blades and Who is Running? passives add recurring global AoE based on base attack.
- Moonlight Piano — required evolution item (no substitute)
- All Range Atomic — full-map active nuke
- Eminence Stacks — amplifies base attack and percentage-based AoE
Traits and placement
Reroll Eternal with HolyMoly stock after evolution — Zid's kit assumes maximum passive uptime across long Infinite sessions.
Center placement near core maximizes Etherealize value when paired with Eternal — see guides/etherealize.
Zid shines in solo Infinite farming; in four-player Raid, sustained Megumo or Storrk sometimes outpace his cooldown-gated burst on multi-phase bosses.
Zid vs Ichigo vs Storrk
Ichigo (~2% Legend Stages) is the F2P secret path — invest there first unless you already hoarded 50,000+ Gems from codes.
Storrk (Paradox Banner) offers summon scaling instead of cooldown nukes — many whales run both; F2P should pick one banner chase.
If Secret Banner rotation misses Zid, farm Gems via Bulla economy and Legend Stage loops rather than panic-pulling Standard Banner.
