Hollow Era: Complete Hollow Guide and Progression

In the enthralling world of **Bleach**, the *Hollow Era* on Roblox presents players with the thrilling choice between two distinct races: Shinigami (Soul Reaper) and Hollow (Arrancar/Espada). In this comprehensive guide, we'll dive deep into the journey of the **Hollow type**, providing you with a full progression roadmap to dominate the Hollow Era.

Becoming a Hollow in the Hollow Era

Your adventure begins as a **Soul Spirit**, faced with a pivotal decision: evolve into a **Shinigami** or embrace the darker path of a **Hollow**. Opting for the latter requires you to break all the links on your chain, transforming you into a Hollow. Even if you choose to do nothing, your chain breaks every two minutes, ensuring your inevitable transformation into a Hollow within minutes.

Warning: Embarking on your Hollow Era journey as a Hollow can be less engaging than playing as a Shinigami. While Hollows exude a cooler vibe, the path to becoming a Vasto Lorde or Espada is paved with extensive grinding and repetitive tasks. Prepare for a time-intensive journey if you aim for the top tiers of Hollow evolution.

Hollow Progression in the Hollow Era

Your first major milestone is evolving into a **Gillian**, which demands relentless grinding by defeating and consuming other Hollows. You'll reach this form at level 15, but at level 10, you can access the **Hueco Mundo** dimension through a Garganta gateway, simplifying the process of finding and consuming Hollows.

As a Hollow, you'll face challenges from both Shinigami and other Hollows, a stark contrast to the experience of **Soul Reapers** (Shinigami). For those interested in the other side, check out our full Shinigami progression guide.

Gillian Form in the Hollow Era

As a Gillian, your primary task continues to be eliminating Hollows, but now you'll also engage with **Hollow Pillars** in Hueco Mundo. Accumulating enough Progression Points will teleport you to your inner world, where you must vanquish five tougher-than-average Hollows three times to evolve into an **Adjucha**.

Adjucha Form in the Hollow Era

Reaching the Adjucha stage opens up exciting possibilities. You can choose to progress towards becoming either a **Vasto Lorde** or an **Arrancar**.

Arrancar Progression

To transform into an Arrancar, you need to interact with a **Crystal Bush** in Hueco Mundo, which appears every 30 to 60 minutes. Upon contact, you'll evolve into an Arrancar, unlocking the ability to use **Kendo skills** and obtain your **Resurrección** at level 50.

Vasto Lorde Progression

Choosing the Vasto Lorde path means continuing to eliminate and devour Hollows for Progression Points, with the risk of losing 1% of these points upon death. You'll need **800 Progression Points** to evolve, earned as follows:

• **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, requiring 800 Progression Points and collecting 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 follow the Vasto Lorde path, your next evolution is into an **Espada**. The process mirrors that of becoming an Arrancar—interact with a **Crystal Bush** in Hueco Mundo. To spot these bushes more easily, disable Atmosphere, Bloom, and Depth of Field in your game settings, then scan 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**. Reach level 50 and speak with **Isen**, the King of Hueco Mundo, who will task you with defeating **50 Arrancars**. Upon completion, you can activate your **Resurrección** when your **Rage Bar** is full and pulsating. Fill your Rage Bar by dealing or receiving damage, and activate it with the default keybind "Y". It will deactivate when you run out of Reiatsu or Rage.

Hollow Era Tips and Tricks

Playing as a Hollow may sound and look cooler, but it's less versatile than evolving as a Shinigami. Be ready for extensive grinding, and remember, as a Hollow, you'll be targeted by both Hollows and Shinigami. If combat becomes disorienting, use the **lockup button** to focus on your primary target. This can be a lifesaver, especially when the game experiences bugs or lag, and you're stuck but not taking damage.

Mastering **how to block enemy attacks** early on is crucial, as even low-level enemies can deal significant damage, and your health doesn't regenerate quickly. Death results in minor monetary loss, but the real challenge is navigating back to your quest targets. Investing in the **bus teleport** can be a game-changer.

When collecting Skill Points, prioritize **Strength and Speed** initially, regardless of your race. While Sword, Vitality, and Reiatsu are tempting, you'll benefit most from increased damage and mobility at the start.

If you're ever lost, press and hold **J** (default keybind) to reveal all markers around **Karakura** using your Reiatsu sense.
