The pursuit of powerful and legendary Zanpakutō is a core part of the Roblox Type Soul experience. Among the most sought-after is Shirayuki, the graceful yet deadly ice-type Shikai made famous by Captain Rukia Kuchiki from Bleach. Obtaining it is a challenge, requiring both dedication and a bit of luck.
This guide will walk you through the exact steps on how to get Shirayuki Shikai in Type Soul.
Understanding the Prerequisites: Shirayuki is a Mythic
First, it’s crucial to understand that Shirayuki is not a standard Shikai you unlock through the initial meditation process. Instead, it is a Mythic-tier variant of the base Snow or Ice element Shikai.
This means you must first unlock a basic Ice/Snow Shikai before you can even attempt to get Shirayuki. The process is divided into two main stages:
- Unlocking your base Shikai as a Soul Reaper.
- Rolling for the Mythic Shirayuki variant.
Step 1: Unlocking Your Base Shikai (Soul Reaper Path)
Before you can dream of wielding Shirayuki, you must become a Soul Reaper and unlock a basic Shikai.
- Become a Soul Reaper
- Die as a Human: Start the game as a Human. To become a spirit, you need to die. You can do this by letting NPCs defeat you or by falling from a great height.
- Find a Soul Reaper: Once you are a spirit, you must find a player who is already a Soul Reaper. They have the ability to initiate you into the Soul Society faction.
- Reach Grade 2
- After joining the Soul Society, your next goal is to level up. You can gain experience by completing missions, defeating NPCs, or winning PvP battles against Quincy or Hollow players.
- You need to reach Grade 2. You can check your current grade at any time by pressing the M key to open your menu.
- The Meditation Process
- Once you are Grade 2, you can begin meditating to connect with your Zanpakutō.
- Find a safe spot (like inside the Soul Society barracks) and press M to meditate.
- You must complete three full meditation sessions. Each session takes between 5 to 8 minutes. Your character will stand up automatically when the session is complete.
- Defeat Your Shikai Boss
- After your third meditation session, the next time you press M, you will be teleported to your inner world.
- Here, you must face and defeat your Shikai boss. This is a combat test that represents your inner spirit.
- Upon victory, you will unlock your basic, randomized Shikai. You are hoping for a Snow or Ice element Shikai. If you get a different element (like Fire or Lightning), you cannot get Shirayuki on this character and may need to re-roll.
Step 2: Rolling for the Mythic Shirayuki
Once you have confirmed that your base Shikai is of the Snow or Ice element, you can begin the hunt for the Mythic version.
- Locate the Lock Weapon NPC
- In the Soul Society, you need to find the Lock Weapon NPC. This special character allows you to re-roll your Shikai for a chance at better variants, including Mythics like Shirayuki.
- Roll for Shirayuki
- Interact with the Lock Weapon NPC and use the roll feature. This will consume in-game currency.
- Important: Shirayuki is a Mythic drop. This means the chance of rolling it is extremely low. It may take dozens or even hundreds of attempts.
- When you successfully roll the Mythic variant for a Snow/Ice Shikai, you will receive Shirayuki.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Q: Can I get Shirayuki directly from my first meditation?
A: No. Shirayuki is exclusively a Mythic variant obtained through the Lock Weapon NPC. Your first meditation will always give you a basic Shikai.
Q: What if I get a different element (like Fire) from my first Shikai?
A: If your base Shikai is not Snow or Ice, it is impossible to get Shirayuki on that character. You would need to create a new character and try the entire process again.
Q: How much does it cost to roll at the Lock Weapon NPC?
A: The cost can vary based on game updates, but it typically requires a significant amount of in-game currency, making the process a grind.
Q: Is Shirayuki the strongest Shikai in Type Soul?
A: “Strongest” can be subjective and depends on playstyle and game balance updates. However, as a Mythic, Shirayuki is undoubtedly one of the most powerful and desirable Shikai in the game, especially for ice-based builds.
Conclusion
Obtaining the Shirayuki Shikai in Type Soul is a true test of a player’s perseverance. The journey involves:
- Successfully becoming a Soul Reaper.
- Grinding to reach Grade 2.
- Completing the lengthy meditation process.
- Defeating your Shikai boss to hopefully get a base Ice/Snow element.
- Finally, enduring the grueling and luck-based rolling at the Lock Weapon NPC for the Mythic drop.
While the path is long and the odds are slim, the reward of wielding Rukia’s iconic Zanpakutō makes the challenge worthwhile for dedicated Soul Reapers. Good luck.
