Thematically, Soul Reapers are diametrically opposite to the other two classes featured in Type Soul: Quincies and Hollows. This is reflected in their gameplay style as well, with Soul Reapers primarily using weapon-based combat instead of magic or a combination of both.

Soul Reapers have access to a progression system that is distinct from its Quincy and Hollow counterparts in nearly every way. It includes a grade system that requires five different XP types for ranking up, giving you access to new ways to play along the way.

An end-game Soul Reaper has a maxed-out skill path, Shikai abilities, and unique weapon types.

Soul Reapers favor sword-based combat, which makes the Speed and Hakuda stat paths favorable for them. Since swordplay combined with lightning-fast strikes makes for a powerful play style, the best way to approach building your avatar is to focus on the Speed skill path.

While playing as a Soul Reaper, you will frequently find yourself in combat against the other playable races. This necessitates using everything in your arsenal to defend yourself while landing crushing blows on your foes.

The best way to do so is to specialize in the Speed skill tree, with a few points invested into a different stat path. By doing so, you will be able to land fast strikes that carry enough power to decimate your opponents.

The best Soul Reaper Abilities

As mentioned earlier, you will be spending a lot of skill points in the Speed tree, with a few points going into a different path. Here are the Speed path skills to invest your points into:

• Flashstep (Mastery 1 and 2)
• Flash Tension
• Blooming Cut
• Phantom Trick
• Enhanced Steps
• Perfect Flashstep
• Dropping Fang
• Floating Strikes
• Shunko
• Passing Breath
• Fast Fang
• Waterfall Dance
• Specter Step
• Time Cut

The other skill path to invest in depends on what you prefer having in your repertoire. Should you like high defenses, you may rely on the Kendo skills Safeguard and Brace. If solo combat is more your pace, you can choose the Healing skills Self-Heal and High-Speed Regeneration.

The best Soul Reaper Weapons

With a build that emphasizes agility and movement speed, the best weapon to go for is a katana with a high critical hit ratio. The gist of this choice is that the more hits you land, the higher the chances of a critical hit.

This weapon choice effectively turns your avatar into a speedy shredder that chews through HP pools effortlessly.
