Arrancar[]
Arrancars are Hollow that ripped off their mask to evolve further and grow more powerful. They gain a humanoid form and a hollow mask to represent their former hollow form, as well as the ability to control reiatsu through a Cero. Arrancars can awaken and briefly return back to a hollow form using their "Resurreccion." They can also go further using their "Resurrección: Segunda Etapa." Depending on the form where they rip off their mask, the stronger they can be. In the new hell update arrancars can obitain "Trecera Etapa."
Arrancar Guide[]
To become an Arrancar, you'll need to rip off your mask as either a Menos, an Adjuchas, or a Vasto Lorde (for info on these, click here) by pressing CTRL + K on PC/Console Keyboard and Mouse, Down DPad Arrow + Y/Triangle on Console, or pressing the Transform button on mobile. It is not recommended to rip off your mask as a Menos Grande as it does not have many buffs, and you start at Grade 5. If you're worried about not being able to become a Vastocar, you can always obtain 7 Hogyoku Fragments and consume them to become one. Note that different forms of Arrancar are set as different ranks when starting off. Menoscar are Grade 5, Adjucha are Grade 3 and Vastocar are Semi-Grade 2 (Note: Vastocar display as ? and True Vastocar display as ??? in the server list no matter what level the player is).
Lesser Vastocar[]
To become a lesser Vastocar, you can either use 7 Hogyoku Fragments as a Menoscar or Adjucar or mask rip (CTRL + K) as a Vasto Lorde. To become a Vasto Lorde, you must first be an Adjuchas (for information on how to become an Adjuchas, click here) and obtain 25 mask cracks. Killing a npc Adjuchas will give you 2 mask cracks and player Adjuchas with mask cracks will give 1. Dying will remove 5 mask cracks. Once you have obtained 25 mask cracks you will become an albino Adjuchas. You must now either defeat an albino adjuchas or your Vasto Lorde boss to become a Vasto Lorde. You should be led to your Vasto Lorde by some lines (This can take up to an hour of walking). Mask ripping as a Vasto Lorde will transform you into a lesser Vastocar. Note that if you die to an albino Adjuchas as an albino Adjuchas you will lose ALL your mask cracks. It is recommended to fight your Vasto Lorde boss by yourself to ensure you get kill credit.
Becoming a lesser Vastocar gives you the ability to obtain Segunda Etapa and provides small buffs. Npc Hollows will not attack you while you are a vastocar. When using a True Hogyoku, you will become a True Vastocar, giving you one of a selection of variant buffs. You can reroll this variant using a vasto variant reroll. It is recommended to use the proficiency variant as it changes the properties of many moves and gives all-round buffs.
Ancient Vasto Lorde[]
To become an ancient Vasto Lorde, you'll need Tercera Etapa, 1x Yhwach's blood, 1x Hogyoku ball, 1x True Hogyoku fragment, 1x Partial essence , and access to the library in Hell ( For more info, see Hell).
To start the quest you must first talk to Past in Ring 1 of Hell, Past is located at the top of the map in a cave in-between Tiger Sozosei, and Em (press "," to see npc locations). After speaking to him Past will ask you to find his "other halves" Present and Future. Present can be found in The Maze, and Future is on the upper floor of The Library. After speaking to future go to the "CRAFTINGNPC" in the corners of the crafting menu you will place the Yhwach's blood, Hogyoku ball, True Hogyoku fragment, and Partial essence and click craft, A cutscene will play as you transform into an ancient Vasto Lorde.
Becoming an ancient Vasto Lorde gives you unlimited Hierro, a second Partial Resurrección move, Slow passive health regen based on the number of nearby players, and two passive abilities one which guard breaks others in an AoE when you are guard broken (150 second cooldown), and one which takes your Partial Res move off of cooldown when you hit an enemy with Cero Oscuras.
Arrancar Progression[]
To progress as an Arrancar, you'll need to do missions to grade up. Reroll your weapon and element to what you think is best or to fit your build. Make sure to learn the skill Flashstep and Soul Style as they're both free in the skill tree and are exceptionally helpful. When you reach Grade 2, you'll then need to focus on getting your Partial Resurrección. You will also need to get your Kido Cero Path, which are the skills that say [GRADE 2] at the bottom (Cero Grab, Blade, Cornea, Finger and Tri-Cero) Remember, you can only choose one. You can reset it by using a Cero Pill, or if you are a Cero Variant True vastocar, you can pick two. Then, grind to Elite Grade. (Note that you need to be a Vastocar to obtain Segunda Etapa and must have already unlocked Full Resurrección.)
Partial Resurrección[]
Short version. For more information, see Resurrección
Starting out you must complete missions until you reach Grade 2. You'll then need to talk to Harribel. Afterward, go to Espada Castle, then to the upstairs to the laboratory, and speak to the pink orb at the table. It'll give you an object depending on your Partial Element. Upon clicking it, you are teleported to an obby. When you complete this obby, click on the black orb and unlock Partial Resurrección. There is no cooldown for the obby, so you can go straight back and retry it if you fail. In the latest update, it is no longer necessary to talk to the NPC. Players can now go directly to the castle at night to start the parkour and obtain their partial resurrection.
Full Resurrección[]
Short version. For more info, see Resurrección.
Stage 1: Getting Full Resurrección is a Long and "Fun" process, so be ready to glide through it. First, you'll need to win a total of 13 raids, or 25 ranked 1v1s. Clan Raids give you 2.5, and ranked matches give you 0.5 points. Note that Karakura Town Raids give no points whatsoever. You can check your progress at the NPC "V-Unequaled, Unrivaled" in an abandoned warehouse in Karakura Town.
Stage 2: You'll then need to get 50 Hollow NPC kills, 10 Elite Grade Grips, and 1 Bawabawa or Jidanbo kill (The worm boss in Hueco Mundo or the Gatekeeper boss in Soul Society.)
Stage 3: After completing all this, head back to Hueco Mundo and fall into the Menos Forest. Then go to a tree near the back of the forest and climb up it. You'll find a hole with a sword stuck into it. Meditate in front of this hole for 5 minutes to be teleported to a maze. This maze is the endgame. A Shadow Adjuchas will be chasing you. Upon contact, it'll insta kill you so beware. You'll need to find a hollow with blue eyes. Note that the closer you get to your hollow, the faster your Shadow Adjuchas will get. When you find your inner hollow (For finding your hollow tips see Tips On Finding Your Hollow Full Res), talk to it. You will then enter a cutscene, and finally unlock your Resurrección. Enjoy.
Segunda Etapa (Second Stage)[]
Upon unlocking your Full Resurrección you can talk to the sword again and it will give you another quest in which you must Grip 20 People who are in (Bankai/Voltstanding/Full Res).
(you do not need segunda for true res)
Gran Rey Cero[]
To get Gran Rey Cero, You must use 9 Hogyoku Fragments. The closer the target is to the middle, the more damage it does.
