Unlocking the Super Saiyan God transformation in Dragon Ball Xenoverse 2 gives Saiyan avatars a massive boost in basic attack power and ki recovery. Added as part of a free update, this fiery red-haired form provides a distinct playstyle compared to other Awoken skills. Mastering the steps required to earn it ensures your custom time patroller achieves divine combat potential without relying on paid expansions.
Maxing Out Friendship Levels with Key Mentors
The primary prerequisite for unlocking Super Saiyan God involves maxing out your friendship bond with five specific Saiyan instructors in Conton City. You need to complete training missions and increase relationship meters for Goku, Vegeta, Gohan and Videl, Goten, and Pan. Taking these mentors along on Parallel Quests speeds up the progression significantly.
You can monitor your exact progress with each instructor by checking the Play Data menu under the Instructor Info tab. Once all five meters reach maximum capacity, you are ready to move on to the next phase of the ritual. Consistently utilizing their specific skill sets during quests will help fill these meters efficiently.
Collecting the Dragon Balls and Making a Wish
After finalizing your bonds with the five required Saiyan mentors, you must collect all seven Dragon Balls to summon Shenron. Defeating Time Patroller NPCs found in various Parallel Quests, such as Quest 23, offers the highest drop rate for Key Items. Once you possess the complete set, head to the Dragon Ball Pedestal in the center of Conton City.
Summon Shenron and select the wish that grants you the Super Saiyan God transformation from the list of options. This step acts as the official trigger to unlock the quest line associated with divine ki. Make sure to double-check your inventory to confirm all seven spheres are present before interacting with the pedestal.
Speaking to Beerus to Receive the Awoken Skill
With the wish granted and your mentor relationships maxed out, travel to the Orange Star High School area to locate Lord Beerus. Interact with him directly to receive the Super Saiyan God Awoken skill as your reward. He will evaluate your readiness and grant the divine transformation to your character inventory.
Once acquired, any Saiyan avatar on your game account can equip the skill regardless of their level. This makes it convenient for alternate characters to instantly benefit from the powerful red form without repeating the entire unlock process. Equipping it in your skill menu prepares you for high-level combat right away.
Understanding Super Saiyan God Combat Mechanics
Super Saiyan God differs from traditional Awoken skills by providing a substantial direct buff to normal melee strikes and ki generation. Unlike forms that drain ki steadily over time, this transformation maintains continuous stability without penalizing your resources. It also introduces unique combo extensions that reward precise timing during basic attack strings.
While it does not boost strike or ki blast super attacks as much as Super Saiyan Blue, its high mobility and physical damage make it optimal for strike-heavy builds. Learning the specific strike timing allows players to deal massive burst damage in both player-versus-environment and competitive online matches.
