Grades in Type Soul are a separate mechanic from your level, but also serve as a form of progression and an indication of prowess. However, Type Soul‘s rank progression depends on your class. Find below all we know about Type Soul ranks, including all grades and how to increase them.
How to increase your grade as a Hollow
Hollows are generally the most straightforward to upgrade in Type Soul. However, it’s important to note the requirement changes once you hit Semi-grade 1.
- From Grade 5 to Semi-grade 1 is only upgraded through mission XP.
- To increase your rank from semi-grade 1 to Elite Grade, you need grip and raid XP alongside your mission XP.
How to increase your grade as a Soul Reaper
While Soul Reapers go through the usual ranks, they have much more variety in their goals to increase their grade. In particular, joining a division and killing Shikai are important steps in their advancement.
- From Trainee to Grade 3 you just need mission XP.
- From Grade 3 to Grade 2 you need to start acquiring experience from the division you joined as well as normal mission XP
- From Grade 2 to Semi-grade 1 requires you to gain Shikai XP (available when you reach grade 2) on top of division duties and mission XP
- From Semi-grade 1 to Elite Grade you’ll need the full gamut of Raid XP, Grip XP, Shikai EXP, Missions XP and Division XP.
How to increase your grade as a Quincy
Like Hollows, Quincies are pretty straightforward, aside from needing to kill Hollows (NPCs, not players) to get to the finish line.
- From Grade 5 to Semi-grade 1, you simply need mission XP
- From Semi-grade 1 to Elite Grade – Mission XP, Raid XP, and Grip EXP, and you also need to kill Hollow NPCs.
