Vizard in Type Soul: How to Unlock, Abilities, and Pro Tips

Vizard in Type Soul (or Visored) is a hybrid race that combines the powers of Soul Reapers and Hollows, offering unique abilities and transformations. Unlocking it requires significant effort but grants access to powerful skills ideal for endgame content. Here’s a comprehensive guide to obtaining and mastering Vizard.

What is Vizard in Type Soul?

Vizard is a mini-mode for Soul Reapers that allows them to use Hollow-like abilities, including a transformative mask and enhanced combat skills. It has three progression stages:

False Vizard: Initial form with a global stat debuff but minor buffs when the mask is active.
Standard Vizard: Completed after finishing the Vizard quest; restores standard Shinigami stats and provides stronger buffs with the mask.
True Vizard: Achieved by using a True Hogyoku, offering the most powerful benefits.

How to Unlock Vizard in Type Soul

Prerequisites

Soul Reaper Race: You must be a Shinigami (become one by dying as a Human and talking to Kisuke NPC in Karakura Town).
Grade Requirement: Reach at least Grade 2 (unlock Shikai).

Step 1: Collect 10 Hogyoku Fragments

Farming Methods:
- 1v1 Ranked Matches: Most efficient method for PvP-skilled players.
- Clan Wars: Good alternative for group-focused players.
- Faction Raids: Slowest method (~1% drop rate).
- Trading: Trade with other players for fragments (use Discord communities for safety).
Consumption: Use the fragments in your inventory to trigger whispers hinting at the next step.

Step 2: Defeat the Vizard in the Type Soul NPC in Hueco Mundo

Location: Hueco Mundo (spawns near player entry points or Menos Forest).
Boss Fight: The NPC uses your skills and abilities; defeat it to obtain a temporary mask (grants one buff and one debuff).
Tip: Other players cannot assist in this fight.

Step 3: Complete the Final Quest

After obtaining the mask, meditate (press M) to receive one of three random quests :

Kill 200 Soul Reapers: Includes NPCs, players, or raid enemies.
Win 10 Raids: Activate your mask before the raid ends for it to count.
Kill Your Vizard Shikai: Meditate to enter your Inner World and defeat the Vizard variant of your Shikai.

Step 4: Achieve True Vizard

Use a True Hogyoku (rare drop from bosses or trading) after completing the quest to unlock True Vizard.

Vizard Abilities and Mechanics

Mask Activation

Fill the Green Bar: Deal damage to fill the mask bar (similar to Bankai bar).
Press K: Equip the mask for temporary boosts:
- Health Pack: Gain ~5% HP on activation.
- Visored Cero: Use a Cero similar to Hollows’ Cero Oscuras.

Buffed Moves

While in Vizard form, certain skills gain enhanced properties (e.g., color changes, damage boosts) :

Move	Effect	Skill Tree Requirement
Rising Swallow	Ragdolls enemies	Kendo
Pulse	Homes in on targets	15 Hakuda
Unseen Blade Core	Deals 1.5x more damage	40 Speed
Zangerin	Increased damage	15 Kido

Vizard Variants

True Vizard offers five variants with unique buffs and debuffs :

Variant	Buffs	Debuff	Mastered Buff
Regen	Health, Speed	Reiatsu	Reiatsu Regen
Defense	Speed, Damage	Reiatsu	Damage Reduction
Weave/Soul Halt	Speed, Reiatsu	Defense	Defense
Damage	Health, Speed	N/A	Damage
Armor	Infinite Posture Regen	N/A	True Guard Breaks

Pro Tips

Farm Fragments via Trading: Use Discord communities to trade Shikai rerolls or skill boxes for Hogyoku Fragments, avoiding the low raid drop rates.
Prioritize PvP for Quests: For “Kill 200 Soul Reapers,” focus on NPCs in Soul Society or low-grade players to avoid high-risk PvP.
Mask Timing in Raids: For “Win 10 Raids,” activate the mask seconds before the raid ends to ensure it counts.
Synergize with Builds: Pair Vizard with Kendo or Speed trees for maximized buffed moves (e.g., Rising Swallow ragdoll combos).

Limitations

Debuffs in False Vizard: Initial form reduces stats; avoid PvP until achieving Standard Vizard.
Grind-Intensive: Unlocking Vizard requires ~2000 raids for fragments if relying solely on raids.
No Race Change: Vizard is exclusive to Soul Reapers; other races cannot access it.

Conclusion

Vizard is a high-risk, high-reward race that significantly enhances Shinigami capabilities with Hollow powers. To unlock it:

Farm 10 Hogyoku Fragments via trading or PvP.
Defeat the Vizard NPC in Hueco Mundo solo.
Complete your random quest (e.g., kill 200 Soul Reapers).
Use a True Hogyoku for True Vizard.
