Find out what Type Soul Essences are, how to get them, and what unique abilities they give to Soul Reapers, Quincys, and Arrancars.
What Are Essences?
Essences are special power-ups in Type Soul that give your character unique and strong abilities. Think of them as your character’s “super moves” or “power-ups.”
How to Get & Equip Essences
You get Essences by playing Ranked matches and Clan Wars. To use one, you need to have at least 40 points in the relevant skill tree (like Kendo or Medic).
Types of Essences
Essences for All Factions (Universal)
- Horizon Core: Dash forward and strike your enemy. (Needs 45 Kendo)
- Territorial Mark: You and one enemy can only hurt each other, and neither of you can heal for about 20-25 seconds.
- Crazed Blitz: A powerful grab attack that deals damage and knocks enemies back.
- Unseen Blade: A fast dash with a slash that knocks enemies into the air. Better with Vizard.
- Extricate: Lose some of your own health (30%) to send out red orbs that attack enemies. It also heals your allies. (Needs 50 Medic)
Soul Reaper Essences
- Teppusatsu: Shoot a powerful 5-second energy beam.
- Gran Raikoho: Knocks enemies back and stuns them. Deals more damage if it hits multiple enemies.
- Raging Reiatsu: Use your Bankai (ultimate form) more often, but it won’t last as long.
Quincy Essences
- Shattered Comet: Shoot an arrow that explodes into many damaging energy shards when they hit the ground.
- True Blut: Use both of your main defensive abilities (Arterie and Blue) at the same time.
Arrancar Essences
- Fusion Essence:
- M1: Fuse with another Arrancar to gain a damage boost and use all 3 “True Vastocar” forms. You share health.
- M2: Increase your damage, but it costs some of your HP (up to 30%). You also get a random “True Vastocar” form.
- Bala Fireworks: Shoot many energy projectiles that damage all nearby enemies.
- Partial Essence: Unlocks 3 new “Partial Skills” for Arrancars.
In short, Essences are key to making your character much stronger, and you earn them through competitive play.
