An Essence offers new movesets to players and varies between ones everyone can use, and race-specific moves. If you want to know which the best Essence for your build is, you’ll need my Type Soul Essences Tier List. Here, I rank every Essence from best to worst including a list of who can use each Essence.

Type Soul Essences Tier List (June 2024)
Let’s get into the rankings!
S-Tier
My favourites! These Essences are widely regarded as the best that Type Soul has to offer. They’re OP, versatile and strong, fitting any unique build.
- Black Flash – All Factions
- Thousand Deaths – All Factions
- Partial Essence – Arrancar Exclusive Essence
- Shattered Comet – Quincy Exclusive Essence
- Raging Reiatsu – Soul Reaper Exclusive
A-Tier
Strong, just not my first choice. These Essences are great alternatives if you’re struggling to get one of my S-Tier options from Ranked 2v2s and Clan Wars.
- Bala Fireworks – Arrancar Exclusive Essence
- Teppusatsu – Soul Reaper Exclusive Essence
- Horizon Core – All Factions
B-Tier
These Essences are the definition of Mid. They’re smack bang in the middle of the rankings and perform average in combat. Nothing great, but definitely not the worst.
- Fusion Essence – Arrancar Exclusive Essence
- Gran Raikoho – Soul Reaper Exclusive Essence
- Territorial Mark – All Factions
C-Tier
These Essences are weaker than most but still have some niche uses. I overall wouldn’t recommend using these as there are better options out there!
- Crazed Blitz – All Factions
- Unseen Blade – All Factions
D-Tier
Don’t settle for these! These are the worst Essences in the game and aren’t worth your time to consume and adapt to your combat style.
- I currently have no D-Tier ranking Essences! This is a good thing as all your options are better than the absolute worst.
