BLEACH Rebirth of Souls Sublimation explained

Until then, however, it won't be an uncommon occurrence to find yourself scratching your head over some of its mechanics, such as Sublimation. Here's all you need to know about the Sublimation state in BLEACH Rebirth of Souls and a few tips to help you trigger it as quickly as possible.

BLEACH Rebirth of Souls Sublimation explained Sublimation, also known as the Kikon Channel state, can be triggered on BLEACH Rebirth of Souls by fully raising an Awakened character's Fighting Spirit meter one time. Once active, Sublimation will boost their Kikon Move base DMG by one bar until the end of the battle. If your character has a secondary Kikon Move, they will get access to it instead. For example, Sublimation Bankai Ichigo gets access to his 5-Koupaku Grand Getsugatensho move and will perform it in place of his 4-Konpaku Point-Blank Getsugatensho no matter the scenario.

The state also increases your move and Spiritual Power recharge speed. Ulquiorra, Ichida, Aizen, and Ichigo (Bankai) don't have access to Spirit Drive, thanks to their ability to reawaken.

In true fighting game fashion, though, you can do that by performing both regular and Reverse combos featuring a good amount of Spiritual Pressure moves. Each Koupaku stack you lose will also offer you a huge boost. What is the reverse gauge in BLEACH Rebirth of Souls? Image by Destructoid Now that you know all you need about Sublimation, why not also get a crash course on the game's Reverse Gauge, which allows you to perform reverse actions (R2 + ◻/RT + X) and enter the game's Soul, Burst, and Chain Reverse states once full? You can check out a breakdown of each state below. Reverse Action Type How to Perform Effects Soul Reverse By performing a Reverse Action while standing still or moving Will boost your Spiritual Power by 25 and slowly restore some of your lost Reishi. Chain Reverse By performing a Reverse Action mid-combo Allows you to cancel uncancellable attacks to prolong combos. Will also boost your Spiritual Gauge gain while active. Burst Reverse By performing a Reverse Action while being attacked Will send your opponent flying upon use and offer a boost in Guard recharge speed while active. After entering any of the above, your Reverse Gauge will be slowly drained until your character returns to normal. The gauge will max out at two bars and can also be used to dash behind targets instantly while out of a combo. Unlike your Spiritual and Fighting Spirit meters, your Reverse Gauge starts fully charged and fills automatically throughout the battle. Its recharge speed will, however, increase the fewer Konpaku bars you have left. It's also important to point out that characters can have unique Reverse Actions as well, with the clearest example being Ichigo's first variant, who will get access to Soul Reverse after activating his Bankai (Awakening). While active, the state will trigger his innate hollow powers, enhance his moveset, and change his first Kikon Move. If Soul Reverse is triggered during or after Sublimation, the move will be enhanced and performed in place of his second one.
