Hollow Era Guide: Full Progression Walkthrough

Dive into the **Bleach universe** with *Hollow Era*, the Roblox game that lets you choose between two iconic races: Shinigami (Soul Reaper) or Hollow (Arrancar/Espada). In this comprehensive guide, we'll focus on the **Hollow type** and take you through the complete progression journey from a Soul Spirit to the powerful Espada.

Becoming a Hollow in the Hollow Era

Your journey begins as a **Soul Spirit**. At this pivotal moment, you face a crucial decision: to become a **Shinigami** or a **Hollow**. Opting for the latter path requires you to break all the links on your chain, transforming you into a Hollow. Remember, your chain is inherently unstable, breaking a link every two minutes, which means you'll become a Hollow naturally if you take no action.

Warning: Embarking on your Hollow Era journey as a Hollow may feel less engaging than playing as a Shinigami. While Hollows exude a cool factor, the path is filled with extensive grinding and repetitive kills. Aspiring to reach the prestigious ranks of Vasto Lorde or Espada requires patience and a significant time investment.

Hollow Progression in the Hollow Era

Your next goal is to evolve into a **Gillian**, achieved through relentless grinding by defeating other Hollows and consuming their remains. You can transform at level 15, but at level 10, you unlock the ability to open a Garganta gateway to **Hueco Mundo**, where Hollows are more abundant and easier to find.

As a Hollow, you'll face attacks from both Shinigami and other Hollows, unlike the **Soul Reapers** (Shinigami). Check out our full Shinigami progression guide for more details.

Gillian Form in the Hollow Era

As a Gillian, your primary objective remains the elimination of Hollows, but now you can interact with **Hollow Pillars** in Hueco Mundo. Accumulating enough Progression Points will teleport you to your inner world, where you must defeat five tough Hollows three times to evolve into an **Adjucha**.

Adjucha Form in the Hollow Era

Now, the journey intensifies! As an Adjucha, you can choose to progress as a **Vasto Lorde** or **Arrancar**.

Arrancar Progression

To become an Arrancar, you need to interact with a **Crystal Bush** in Hueco Mundo, which appears every 30 to 60 minutes. Upon contact, you'll transform, gaining access to Hueco Mundo via a keybind and unlocking **Kendo skills**. At level 50, you can start working towards obtaining your **Resurrección**.

Vasto Lorde Progression

If you choose to evolve into a Vasto Lorde, you must continue eliminating and consuming Hollows to gain Progression Points. Be cautious, as death results in a 1% loss of these points. You need **800 Progression Points** to become a Vasto Lorde, with varying points awarded per kill:

• **Hollow**: 1 Point
• **Gillian**: 6 Points
• **Adjucha**: 4 Points
• **Vasto Lorde**: 8 Points
• **Arrancar**: 8 Points
• **Espada**: 10 Points

Vasto Lorde Form in the Hollow Era

Evolving into a Vasto Lorde is more challenging than becoming an Arrancar. You need to collect 800 Progression Points and gather all **Hollow Items**, which have random drop chances:

• **Hollows**: **Back Fins** (Epic, 5% drop chance, +1 HP regeneration), **Fin Tail** (Legendary, 1% drop chance, +1 Reiatsu regeneration and +1 Speed)
• **Gillian**: **Back Spikes** (Rare, 10% drop chance, +1 Reiatsu)
• **Adjucha**: **Tail** (Epic, 5% drop chance, +1 Speed), **Single Horn** (Uncommon, 25% drop chance, +1 Strength), **Double Horn** (Rare, 10% drop chance, +2 Strength), **Triple Horn** (Epic, 5%, +3 Strength)
• **Vasto Lorde**: **Spiral Horn** (Epic, 5% drop chance, +1 Reiatsu)

Becoming Espada in the Hollow Era

If you're following the Vasto Lorde path, you'll eventually aim to become an **Espada**. The process mirrors that of becoming an Arrancar: find and interact with a **Crystal Bush** in Hueco Mundo. To spot the bush more easily, disable Atmosphere, Bloom, and Depth of Field in your settings, and survey the area from a high vantage point.

How to Get Your Resurrección

As an **Arrancar or Espada**, your ultimate goal is to obtain your **Resurrección**. First, reach level 50, then head to Hueco Mundo to meet **Isen**, the King of Hueco Mundo. He'll task you with defeating **50 Arrancars**. Once completed, you can use your Resurrección when your **Rage Bar** is full and pulsating. Fill the Rage Bar by dealing or receiving damage. The default keybind for Resurrección is "Y", and it deactivates when you run out of Reiatsu or Rage.

Hollow Era Tips and Tricks

Playing as a Hollow may seem cooler, but it's less versatile than evolving as a Shinigami. Prepare for extensive grinding and be aware that you'll be attacked by both Hollows and Shinigami. If combat becomes disorienting, use **the lockup button** to focus on your primary target. This is crucial in a game that can be buggy and laggy, especially when you're stuck but not taking damage. Learn **how to block enemy** attacks quickly, as even low-level enemies can deal significant damage, and your health doesn't regenerate fast enough. Upon death, you'll lose some money, and the trek back to your quest targets can be tedious. Consider investing in **bus teleport** to save time. When collecting Skill Points, prioritize **Strength and Speed** initially, as these are essential for dealing damage and moving quickly. If you're unsure, **press and hold J** (default keybind) to reveal markers around **Karakura** with your Reiatsu sense.

This concludes our comprehensive *Hollow Era* Hollow progression guide. Keep in mind that the game is still in development, and you may encounter bugs and lag, even on high-performance PCs. Before starting your adventure, make sure to use *Hollow Era* codes to give yourself a boost, as this game is challenging.
