And I suppose anything more specifically referring to Zhengui would be heading into spoiler territory...

So, interesting thought here. If we did the "Gather spirits from the storm" mission would there be a chance to find a good wind aligned site? I mean, baby wind spirits would probably gravitate towards sites that were naturally wind aligned. As wind is one of the sites that we want the most right now, that mission might be a good one to find said site.

For now unless more info comes up. Which is unlikely.
@yrsillar I have a question. If we come back to take another of the ZB+, will it get the same benefit as the first one? Or is it just one ZB, one ZB+ that is possible and if we want to get another ZB+, we would need to train Zb again.

@yrsillar, can spirits learn arts/will Zhengui be able to pick up/learn/remember etc a movement art or is an art like Fleeting Zephyr his only chance for speed?

This one enhances our long-range projectiles. AC is meant for melee, I don't think they overlap much if at all.
If not, then Fleeting Zephyr , because our own an our grups speed is more useful than defense right now.
But our biggest issue right now is that we lack attack power

Well a Big Consideration is that from now on Zhengui will soon be tagging along with us. Thus when we look at these arts we should look at how they help him. Then how they help our other allies. Then how they help us.

Driving Zephyr:
Zhengui is a melee fighter and doesn't have any ranged attacks that I know of. It doesn't help him.
Xiulan has ranged, extremely powerful ranged. Suyin has ranged. Meizhen is a melee counter puncher with a Flying Sword that may benefit. The rest of Golden Fields is not ranged focused. From the text it probably has to do with accuracy, so good dice bonuses around that.
It will boost our FSA and throwing knives. Passives are likely to be quite good though FSA will likely continue to be our armor piercer.
Zephyr's Heart:
Zhengui is a tanky melee fighter, knockback is not helpful.
Helpful for Xiulan, extremely so, and helpful with Suyin. Meizhen doesn't really benefit from this. Golden Fields doesn't either.
We get some pretty great bonuses from this since when coupled with TRF it becomes very very difficult for enemies to hurt us. Passives are something I am not sure about... only thing that comes to mind is something like Tranquil Walk of Peace, some kind of passive effect which slows enemy movement.
Fleeting Zephyr:
Definitely helps Zhengui, his weakness is a lack of speed. With this he can close and stay in melee with faster characters.
Helps Xiulan and Suyin. Helps Meizhen, her build makes her somewhat slow from what I remember. Helps Golden Fields melee fighters get into the fight.
With us it boosts our speed even in bright light and may provide initiative passives. General speed boost passives.
Looking at it I like Fleeting the most.

As an addendum I also think that if any element is going to lead to flight, wind is it. I don't expect Fleeting to allow flight but it's going to be interesting if it may lead into that with later arts.

Pretty sure Zhengui spits fire, agree with the rest of the analysis though

I really think we need a damage increasing art.
We can potentially do a boat load of damage with a bow, we are stealthy enough and skilled enough to really make a difference.
Ling Qi herself acknowledged that she would have fared far better in the last battle, had she paused playing earlier and began to do damage.
We do need a good bow and a good art to really make damage, and Driving Zephyr would give us that.

On the practical side, as others have said this would help Zhengui's speed issues somewhat. And a group movement art is something she is currently lacking. Moreover, on a thematic side this fits Ling Qi the best. Wind is her element, and what does she want most? To be free of all bonds that shackle her.

Mechanically on the other hand it's a waste. She's damn fast already, with other people only able to match her on short bursts. On the other hand, every dice of passive added to our ranged attacks makes them all better.
