I can't figure it out

For which sound(s)? The leads? The piano?
?

I know that Zedd uses a lot of Native Instruments stuff. I think some brass instrument, possibly Session Horns Pro was used during the 'drop'.

lol im dumb... forgot to say the guitar

Grey co-wrote the song with Zedd. The guitar is there's.. you might be able to ask them since they aren't that big yet. It's likely a real guitar with lots of processing.

I can't figure it out :(

a guitar  :P

Personally me, I'd rather learn the instrument but there's many libraries for guitars, a good example is Sugar Bytes Guitarist, rack it with NI Guitar Rig and you can get some pretty realistic work out of it.

Maybe in the future, I don't really have the time right now...

That's okay, things take time, in the meantime check out some of the guitar libraries out there, especially Guitarist. It might sound a bit ridiculous but I genuinely believe the best way to recreate physical instrument sounds are to practice with an actual instrument and learn IMO, but it's very understandable if time or money is a restraint.
