VV Ultimatum Quincy Progression Guide

Card No. 06·56817 · Updated · Standard formula, shown below

This guide explains how to progress through the Quincy storyline in VV Ultimatum, covering the required quests, leveling strategies, and key rewards. You’ll learn the exact order of progression, how to unlock each stage, and what to prioritize to reach the endgame Quincy content efficiently.

Understanding Quincy Progression

In VV Ultimatum, the Quincy path is one of several character lineages, each with its own skill tree and ultimate abilities. Progression is linear: you start as a basic Quincy, then advance through ranks by completing story quests and defeating bosses. Unlike some other lineages that branch into multiple sub-classes, the Quincy line is straightforward, but it requires specific level thresholds to unlock the next quest.

The main milestones are:

  • Level 10 – Unlocks the first Quincy-specific quest
  • Level 25 – Second quest, introduces Hollow enemies
  • Level 40 – Third quest, requires defeating a Menos Grande
  • Level 60 – Fourth quest, unlocks the Vollständig transformation
  • Level 80 – Final quest, grants the ultimate Quincy ability

How to Level Up Fast

Efficient leveling is about balancing quest rewards with grinding. Quests give large XP chunks, but they are limited. Grinding mobs gives consistent, repeatable XP. The best strategy is:

  1. Complete every available Quincy quest as soon as you meet the level requirement.
  2. After quests, grind in the highest-level area you can survive in.
  3. Use XP boosts if you have them (from events or items).
  4. Focus on enemies that die quickly rather than high-HP ones – kills per hour matter more than XP per kill.

For example, if you can kill 10 weak enemies in 30 seconds (300 XP) versus 2 strong enemies in 30 seconds (200 XP), the weak enemies are better.

Choosing the Right Build

Your Quincy build affects how quickly you clear mobs. The two main archetypes are:

  • Ranged DPS – Maximizes attack speed and critical chance. Best for solo grinding.
  • Technique – Focuses on skill cooldown reduction and area damage. Better for boss fights.

For progression, a balanced build is recommended: put points into attack and a secondary stat like spirit. Avoid pure defense early on, as it slows your kill speed. Re-spec options exist, but they cost in-game currency, so plan ahead.

Common Mistakes and Misconceptions

Many players make these errors:

  • Skipping side quests – Side quests often give exclusive Quincy items that boost XP.
  • Ignoring the skill tree – Some skills have passive XP bonuses; unlock them early.
  • Grinding in the wrong area – If you can’t kill enemies in one or two hits, move to a lower-level area.

A common misconception is that the final Quincy transformation is unlocked at level 100. In reality, it’s available at level 80, but the quest to get it requires level 80 and a specific boss drop.

Comparing Quincy to Other Lineages

Quincy is often compared to the Shinigami and Hollow paths. Quincy excels in ranged combat and has the highest burst damage potential. Shinigami are more balanced, while Hollows have better survivability. For pure PvE progression, Quincy is arguably the fastest because of its safe ranged attacks. However, in PvP, Quincy players must be careful – they are squishy and can be countered by close-range fighters.

Costs and Requirements

While the game is free to play, progression can be sped up with in-game purchases. The main costs are:

  • Re-spec tokens – cost premium currency
  • XP boosts – available from the shop or events
  • Inventory slots – for storing gear

None of these are required to reach max level, but they reduce grinding time. The game does not have a subscription fee.

Safety and Fair Play

Always play on official servers and avoid third-party mods or macros. Using automation tools can result in a permanent ban. The game’s terms of service explicitly prohibit any form of botting. Also, be cautious of phishing sites that offer “free XP” – they are scams.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the fastest way to level a Quincy from 1 to 100?

The fastest way is to complete all Quincy quests as soon as they unlock, then grind in the highest-level area where you can one-shot enemies. Use XP boosts if you have them. On average, it takes about 20-30 hours of active play without boosts.

Do I need to complete the main story to unlock Quincy quests?

No, the Quincy questline is separate from the main story. You can access it from the Quincy NPC in the hub world once you reach level 10. However, some Quincy quests require you to have defeated certain main-story bosses to proceed.

What is the best Quincy skill to max out first?

For leveling, max out the passive that increases XP gain (if available) and an area-of-effect attack skill. For endgame, prioritize the Vollständig transformation and its related skills.

Can I reset my Quincy skill tree?

Yes, you can reset your skill tree using a re-spec token, which can be bought with premium currency or earned from certain events. There is no free reset, so choose carefully.

Is Quincy good for PvP?

Quincy is viable in PvP but requires high skill. Their ranged attacks are powerful, but they have low health. Use hit-and-run tactics and keep your distance.

What level do I need to be to fight the final Quincy boss?

The final Quincy boss requires level 80 and completion of the previous Quincy quests. The boss is level 90, so you might want to be at least level 85 to have a comfortable fight.
