Hollow Era Tips and Tricks
Initially, you'll begin as a Soul Spirit. To become a Shinigami, accept the first quest offered by the NPC, Hurt Shinigami. This choice is irreversible; you cannot switch to the Hollow path unless you later become a Visored. If you prefer the Hollow path, please refer to our Hollow progression guide. Choosing your path requires quick action. The chain representing your Shinigami fate will slowly break every two minutes; if left unattended, you'll automatically become a Hollow. If this happens, consult our resurrection moves list for your Hollow endgame.
Your initial quest involves purifying six Lost Souls. Subsequent quests, marked by a red crosshair, involve tasks like delivering a letter and defeating Hollows and Corrupted Shinigami, progressing until you reach level 15. These quests include repeatable tasks, progression quests, and those tied to paths like Vizard and Airwalk. Consider acquiring a powerful sword from the Urakara shop and investing in fast travel (either the bus stop or the in-game Robux purchase) to navigate the large map efficiently.
Strategic skill point allocation is crucial for maximizing your Reiatsu. The Reiatsu Skill Tree offers powerful Kido abilities, exclusive to Shinigami. Kido nodes boost Kido damage, while Reiatsu nodes increase your maximum Reiatsu. Key Kido abilities include:
Reach level 15 to unlock the Shikai Training quest from Urihiro. Defeat Urahara Kisuke to obtain Shikai powers. Note: This fight is challenging at level 15; consider grinding to level 25 or higher for an easier victory. Unlocking Shikai grants your weapon a random powerful ability, which can be re-rolled at the Urahara Shop. Activate Shikai by pressing Y (default) when your Rage Bar is full. It ends when your Reiatsu is depleted or you release the Y key.
Shikai Mastery increases with Mastery Points earned by using Shikai. Higher Mastery levels reduce Rage consumption and grant visual aura effects:
Reaching level 50 unlocks the Visored path, allowing you to merge Shinigami and Hollow powers. Obtain the quest at the Vizard's Warehouse. Defeating the King of Hueco Mundo (a 1% drop rate) yields Hogyoku, crucial for becoming a Visored and unlocking the Vizard fighting style.
Visored mastery improves Mask Control (reducing Hollow control) and extends the time you can wear your mask, boosting damage output.
Bankai is currently unavailable but is expected in future updates.
Use the lock-on button to target enemies, especially during lag. Learn to block attacks early on. Invest in fast travel to reduce travel time. Prioritize Strength and Speed skill points initially. Use Reiatsu sense (hold J) to reveal markers. While Hollows offer unique advantages, Shinigami might be a smoother experience for those who dislike repetitive tasks.
This guide covers Shinigami progression in *Hollow Era*. Remember that the game is still under development, so expect occasional bugs and lag. Utilize available codes to boost your early game progress!
