I remember standing at the edge of the Inner World with my mask trembling in my hands. You have one shot to pick traits that will follow you forever — and the game gives you tiny hints, not a roadmap. That moment makes the difference between a smooth climb to Resurrection and a painful reroll.
I’ve played enough VV ULTIMATUM, read Discord threads, and watched YouTube guides so you don’t waste hours on the wrong choices. I’ll walk you through each Hollow stage, point out what actually matters, and flag the traps players keep walking into. Think of the path as like a slow-burning fuse — it starts quiet and then everything happens at once.
Morning commuters ignore a battered poster — What Is the Hollow Progression Path in VV ULTIMATUM?
The Hollow line runs in a straight chain: Fishbone → Menos → Adjuchas → Vasto Lorde → Arrancar. Every step opens new trait slots and abilities, and every early decision can lock you out of late-game options. If you rush into Arrancar too soon, you lose trait capacity permanently and regret piles up faster than XP.

You pick a base Hollow at character creation: Gorilla, Lizard, Centipede, or Turtle. I recommend Gorilla for most players — balanced speed, damage, and survivability that makes both PvE runs and the Resurrection fight friendlier. If you frequent Roblox community Discords or watch creator guides, Gorilla is the most commonly suggested starter for a reason.
- Gorilla: Balanced and forgiving. Best for new players and solo progression.
- Lizard: High mobility; squishy. Great for hit-and-run playstyles.
- Centipede: Fast but fragile; Resurrection can be brutal if you misread animation timing.
- Turtle: Tanky, slow attacks. Feels awkward in some boss windows.
The coffee machine at the office always jams — How Hollow Traits Work in VV ULTIMATUM
Hollow Traits are permanent bonuses you gain by consuming defeated Hollows. When you eat a Hollow, you’re offered one of its traits — accept it or reject it in the moment. Once you remove your mask and become an Arrancar, those choices are locked for good.
Can you get Hollow Traits in VV ULTIMATUM after becoming an Arrancar?
No. Traits only drop while you are still in Hollow form. If you plan to keep certain traits, reach Vasto Lorde first so you have the full set of slots to pick from.
Trait slots by stage:
- Fishbone / Menos: 2 slots
- Adjuchas: 3 slots
- Vasto Lorde: 4 slots (last chance before Arrancar)
The streetlight flickers before a storm — How to Progress Hollow in VV ULTIMATUM
Progression is a mix of questing and targeted farming. The red story quests give the fastest, most reliable progress early on; missions and open-world Hollow kills fill the gaps. If you want numbers to compare, many players log faster trait acquisition per hour by alternating red quests with mission runs on YouTube-guided routes.
What is the best Hollow type in VV ULTIMATUM?
Gorilla is the consensus pick for balance and an easier Resurrection encounter. If you’re planning PvP or speed content, Lizard or Centipede can outperform Gorilla but at the cost of a harder resurrection test.
An exhausted runner checks their watch — Fishbone to Menos and Menos to Adjuchas
Start as Fishbone: hit red story quests and smash any Hollow you encounter. When you reach Menos, don’t peel your mask off just because the option is available — Menos gives only two traits. Push through Menos objectives (destroy objects, clear Hollow clusters) until you can push to Adjuchas.
Adjuchas adds a third trait slot and abilities like Cero and Roar. At this point, your choices start to compound; a bad early trait still matters, but it’s not irreversible — unless you remove your mask.

Vasto Lorde is the sweet spot: four trait slots and full Hollow power. If you want flexibility, don’t remove your mask until you hit this form. Many veteran players track trait drops with Discord bots or Google Sheets to avoid regrets; I recommend the same — the small effort saves hours later.
Neighbors arguing over a parking spot — Should You Become an Arrancar or Vasto Lorde First?
If you remove your mask from Menos or Adjuchas, you permanently cap your traits at two or three. Most high-level builds require the four slots only Vasto Lorde provides. Consider your endgame: PvP mains sometimes sacrifice early power for playstyle, but if you want maximum growth, reach Vasto Lorde first.

When you’re satisfied with your trait set, press L to remove your mask and become an Arrancar. This opens weapon choice and cosmetic options but seals your Hollow trait slate. The Spear weapon is the safest beginner pick — its reach makes both PvE and PvP encounters simpler while you learn your new kit.
A sudden thunderclap startles a diner — How to Unlock Resurrection in VV ULTIMATUM
Resurrection starts after Arrancar and requires regular meditation (M) to build your Inner World. Keep gaining XP while you meditate; if you fall asleep, you need more XP before the next attempt. Watch for yellow whispers above your hotbar — those are progress pings; when you see one, meditate ASAP.
How do you unlock Resurrection in VV ULTIMATUM?
Become an Arrancar, equip your weapon, meditate, respond to whispers, and visit your Inner World repeatedly until the spirit invites you to the trial. Tools like community spreadsheets and YouTube walkthroughs can help you time meditations for efficiency.
A chess player studies the board for hours — How to Complete the Resurrection Fight
The Resurrection battle has three phases designed to examine different skills. Treat each phase as a training module: patience, timing, and reading enemies. The trials form a final checklist of everything you should have learned up to Vasto Lorde.
- Phase 1: Original Hollow – You face the base type you chose. If you picked Gorilla, this should feel familiar and manageable.
- Phase 2: Menos – Watch for delayed attacks and rhythmic openings; patience wins here.
- Phase 3: Adjuchas – Stronger attacks, extra abilities. Prioritize parries and defensive windows; the fight punishes sloppy aggression.
The trial is like a locked safe that only opens with the right code — your practice, builds, and trait choices are that code. Many successful players credit a mix of community advice (Discord), short tutorial videos on YouTube, and practice runs in Roblox test servers for getting over the final hump.
The last page of a well-thumbed notebook — Closing notes and next steps
If you want a clean path: start Gorilla, collect traits up through Vasto Lorde, then remove your mask and focus on meditations for Resurrection. Use community tools — Discord servers, creator YouTube channels, and Moyens I/O-style guides — to compare trait priorities and spear up builds. I’m curious: will you gamble early for a fun playstyle or grind to Vasto Lorde and lock in maximum potential?
