Type Soul Patch Notes – September 2025
Published Sept 1, 2025 • 7 min read
The September 2025 update for Type Soul focuses on balance stability, clearer progression goals, and more rewarding event loops. Below is a clean breakdown of what changed and how it impacts each playstyle.
Highlights
- Adjusted drop rates for core resources and shards
- Rebalanced damage coefficients for Shikai and Vollständig skills
- Event rotation now includes targeted progression milestones
- QoL: training NPCs offer clearer milestones and repeatable tasks
Balance Changes
Shikai Adjustments
Fire- and lightning-type Shikai saw mild coefficient tuning to reduce burst spikes in early ranks. The intent is not to nerf identity but to flatten out extreme variance. You can still play aggressively, but optimal play now rewards combo sequencing and resource timing.
- Fire: −5% base damage, +8% DoT duration consistency
- Lightning: −6% burst, +5% stamina efficiency
- Ice: unchanged; remains the control king for group fights
Quincy – Vollständig
Vollständig gained sustain tuning for extended fights. Damage pacing is slightly slower, but uptime is more reliable, which benefits disciplined play and team setups.
- Minor cooldown normalization across two movement skills
- Resource drain reduced by ~7% at mid ranks
Hollow Progression
Hollows received early-game durability support. This gives you more attempts to practice routes without constant resets.
- Base HP +4% at early thresholds
- Two training events now grant micro-stamina refunds
Drop Rates & Events
Resource nodes now scale with session length and objective completion. Playtime alone is no longer the primary driver; you get the best returns by completing short, clearly labeled objectives.
- Shard nodes: slightly lowered baseline, higher peak on objective streaks
- Weekly events: milestone chests at 3, 6, and 10 tasks
- Daily tasks: simplified categories—no more redundant objectives
What This Means For Your Builds
Soul Reaper
If you play burst Shikai, expect similar kill windows but with more emphasis on setup. Consider allocating one slot to stamina efficiency—your longer fights will feel smoother and you’ll drop fewer combos.
Quincy
Vollständig’s pacing rewards sustained pressure. Build for survivability and consistent output rather than pure spike damage. This is a great patch to learn disciplined rotations.
Hollow
You can now practice routes with fewer restarts. Prioritize pathing and objective chaining to trigger the improved milestone rewards.
Recommended Routes
Pair your daily tasks with the weekly milestone track. Focus on short objective chains that you can complete reliably, rather than chasing raw spawn RNG. Track your time-to-reward to optimize your loop.
Quick Tips
- Use one slot for stamina sustain on burst builds
- Stack objective streaks to maximize shard yields
- Save rerolls for event windows with bonus modifiers
Closing Thoughts
This update favors consistency without deleting identity. If you’ve been waiting to refine your fundamentals, September 2025 is a great time to build repeatable, efficient routes and climb.
