In Dragon Ball Xenoverse 2, transforming into a Super Saiyan is a rite of passage for any aspiring Saiyan character. It’s not just a cosmetic change; it unlocks devastating new abilities and significantly boosts your power. The process involves unlocking the Super Saiyan Awoken Skill through specific quests and training. After unlocking, you can equip the Skill, fill your Ki gauge during battle, and trigger the transformation to unleash your inner Saiyan power.
Unlocking the Super Saiyan Awoken Skill
Getting the Super Saiyan transformation requires completing specific quests given by Vegeta.
-
Level Requirement: You must be at least level 37 to begin this quest line. Reaching this level allows the necessary questline to become accessible.
-
The Saiyan Awakening Questline: This quest chain is crucial. You’ll find Vegeta near Capsule Corporation and will engage in several training sessions and battles with him.
-
Step 1: Prove Your Worth: Talk to Vegeta near Capsule Corporation. He will ask you to prove your worth in combat. The first fight is relatively easy, serving as an introduction to Vegeta’s combat style. Successfully winning the first combat will make Vegeta provide the next quest.
-
Step 2: Earn Vegeta’s Respect: Vegeta will ask to battle you again. This battle will be harder than the first one and will require careful planning on your side to emerge victorious. After defeating Vegeta, he acknowledges your strength and provides the next quest.
-
Step 3: Super Saiyan Training: This is the most important part. You will battle Super Saiyan Vegeta. This fight is significantly more challenging, and you might consider bringing along a powerful partner or equipping some of your best equipment. Defeating Super Saiyan Vegeta unlocks the Super Saiyan Awoken Skill.
-
-
Equipping and Using the Skill: Once acquired, go to the customization menu, select Awoken Skill, and equip either Super Saiyan or Super Vegeta, depending on your playstyle. Fill your Ki gauge during a fight, and then activate the skill to transform.
Super Saiyan vs. Super Vegeta: Which is Better?
The game offers two main Super Saiyan transformations through Awoken Skills: Super Saiyan and Super Vegeta.
-
Super Saiyan: This form offers a balanced boost to all your stats. It enhances your strike and Ki Blast Supers, offering versatility in combat.
-
Super Vegeta: This form emphasizes Ki Blast Supers, making it ideal for characters focused on ranged combat. While it boosts Ki Blast attacks significantly, it provides less of a boost to strike skills compared to Super Saiyan.
Consider your character’s build and fighting style when choosing between these forms. Experiment to see which better complements your existing skills and strategies.
Maximizing Your Super Saiyan Power
-
Ki Management: Super Saiyan transformations constantly drain Ki. Efficient Ki management is crucial. Use skills that regenerate Ki or equip items that boost your Ki recovery rate.
-
QQ Bangs: Invest in QQ Bangs that improve your Ki and Ki Blast Supers (or Strike Supers, depending on your transformation choice). These items provide a significant stat boost, further amplifying your Super Saiyan powers.
-
Training: Continue training with various masters to acquire new skills that synergize well with your Super Saiyan transformation. This can include powerful Ki Blast attacks for Super Vegeta or devastating strike skills for Super Saiyan.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
1. What level do I need to be to start the Super Saiyan questline?
You need to be at least level 37 to trigger the Super Saiyan questline with Vegeta near Capsule Corporation. If Vegeta doesn’t appear, try doing some more main story quests, or some parallel quests, and come back to see if he shows up.
2. Can other races become Super Saiyan in Xenoverse 2?
No, only Saiyan characters can become Super Saiyans. Other races have their own unique transformations and Awoken Skills. For example, Majins can become Pure Majin, and Namekians can become Giant Form.
3. How do I get Super Saiyan 2 or Super Saiyan 3?
After unlocking Super Saiyan, continue training with Vegeta to unlock Super Saiyan 2. After you reach level 60, you can speak to Goku near the Orange Star High School to start the quest to get Super Saiyan 3.
4. What’s the difference between Super Saiyan and Super Vegeta?
Super Saiyan provides a balanced boost to both Strike and Ki Blast Supers, while Super Vegeta primarily enhances Ki Blast Supers at the expense of Strike Supers. Choose based on your preferred playstyle.
5. Does being a Super Saiyan drain my Ki?
Yes, transforming into a Super Saiyan constantly drains your Ki. Manage your Ki wisely to maintain the transformation and avoid being left vulnerable.
6. What are QQ Bangs and how do they affect my Super Saiyan form?
QQ Bangs are customizable items that replace your clothing stats. They can significantly boost specific attributes, such as Ki and Ki Blast Supers, which are vital for maximizing the effectiveness of your Super Saiyan transformations. Be careful when crafting them though as they can lower your stats as well as increase them.
7. Can I revert back to my base form while in Super Saiyan?
Yes, you can deactivate the Super Saiyan transformation by pressing the same button combination you used to activate it. However, be mindful of your Ki, as you’ll need a sufficient amount to transform again.

Equip items and skills that regenerate Ki passively or boost your Ki recovery rate. Some skills allow you to regain Ki quickly during combat.
9. Are there any skills that work particularly well with Super Saiyan transformations?
Yes, skills like Super Kamehameha and Final Flash are excellent choices for Super Vegeta builds, while skills like Meteor Strike and Justice Combination complement Super Saiyan builds.

Vegeta is usually located near Capsule Corporation. If he’s not there, try progressing further in the story or completing other quests and then returning.
11. Is it possible to get the Super Saiyan transformation early in the game?
No, the level requirement of 37 prevents you from obtaining the Super Saiyan Awoken Skill early on. You need to progress through the game and level up before you can access the questline.
