Hollow Era: Complete Hollow Guide and Progression

Dive into the thrilling world of the **Bleach universe** with *Hollow Era*, a popular Roblox game where you can choose between the paths of Shinigami (Soul Reaper) or Hollow (Arrancar/Espada). In this comprehensive guide, we'll focus on the **Hollow type** and walk you through the entire progression journey to help you master your Hollow form.

Becoming a Hollow in the Hollow Era

Your journey begins as a **Soul Spirit**, and you're presented with a crucial decision: to become a **Shinigami** or a **Hollow**. Opting for the Hollow path requires you to break all the links on your chain, transforming you into a Hollow. Time is of the essence here; every two minutes, a link breaks on its own, so even if you do nothing, you'll become a Hollow eventually.

Warning: Before embarking on your Hollow adventure, be aware that playing as a Hollow can be less engaging compared to Shinigami. While Hollows have a cool factor, the path is filled with repetitive grinding and kills. Reaching the prestigious levels of Vasto Lorde or Espada demands patience and significant time investment.

Hollow Progression in the Hollow Era

Your next goal is to evolve into a **Gillian**, which requires extensive grinding by killing and consuming other Hollows. You can transform at level 15, but at level 10, you gain access to the **Hueco Mundo** dimension through a Garganta gateway, simplifying your hunt for Hollows.

As a Hollow, you'll face threats from both Shinigami and other Hollows, unlike the safer path of Soul Reapers. For a detailed progression guide on Shinigami, check out our full Shinigami progression guide.

Gillian Form in the Hollow Era

As a Gillian, your primary task is to continue eliminating Hollows and engage with **Hollow Pillars** in Hueco Mundo. Accumulate enough Progression Points, and you'll be transported to your inner world to defeat Hollows three times, evolving into an **Adjucha**.

Each session in your inner world requires you to eliminate five Hollows, which are tougher than regular ones. Don't worry about dying; you can retry as many times as needed.

Adjucha Form in the Hollow Era

As an Adjucha, you face a pivotal choice: evolve into a **Vasto Lorde** or an **Arrancar**. Let's explore the Arrancar path first.

Arrancar Progression

To become an Arrancar, interact with a **Crystal Bush** in Hueco Mundo, which spawns every 30 to 60 minutes. Once you touch it, you'll transform into an Arrancar, gaining access to Hueco Mundo and the list of all Arrancar Ressurections.

At level 50, you can pursue your **Resurrección**, but for now, Arrancars can only use **Kendo skills**. We hope more skills will be added soon.

Vasto Lorde Progression

To evolve into a Vasto Lorde, continue eliminating and devouring Hollows to earn Progression Points. Be cautious; dying will cost you 1% of your points. Many players remain stuck as Adjucha due to the grind. You need **800 Progression Points** to become a Vasto Lorde, 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

Becoming a Vasto Lorde is more challenging than becoming an Arrancar. You need 800 race Progression Points and all **Hollow Items**, which have random drop chances. Here's a list of Hollow Items by the creatures that drop them:

• **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 choose the Vasto Lorde path, you'll eventually aim to become an **Espada**. The process is similar to becoming an Arrancar; head to Hueco Mundo, find a **Crystal Bush**, and interact with it to transform.

To spot a Crystal Bush easily, go to Hueco Mundo, disable Atmosphere, Bloom, and Depth of Field in your options, and 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, then visit Hueco Mundo and speak to **Isen**, the King of Hueco Mundo.

Isen 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. 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 the Shinigami path. Prepare for extensive grinding and be aware that you'll be targeted by both Hollows and Shinigami. If combat gets overwhelming, 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.

Master **blocking enemy attacks** early on, as even low-level enemies can deal significant damage, and your health doesn't regenerate quickly. Death results in minor money loss, but the real challenge is navigating back to your quest targets. Consider investing in **bus teleport** to save time and effort.

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 markers around **Karakura** using your Reiatsu sense.

This concludes our comprehensive *Hollow Era* Hollow progression guide. Remember, the game is still in development, so expect some bugs and lag, even on high-performance PCs. Before starting your journey, make sure to use *Hollow Era* codes to give yourself a boost, as this game is no walk in the park.
