Sailor Piece Artifacts: Unlock, Farm & Upgrade Guide

This guide explains how to unlock, farm, and upgrade every artifact set in Sailor Piece, covering the unlock conditions, farming locations, upgrade costs, and which sets are worth your time. You’ll get a complete breakdown of all six artifact sets, their bonuses, and the most efficient ways to grind them.

What Are Artifacts in Sailor Piece?

Artifacts are equippable items that grant passive stat boosts and unique set bonuses. Unlike weapons or armor, artifacts are not bought from a shop—they are obtained by defeating specific bosses, completing raids, or opening chests in the Second Sea and Third Sea. Each artifact belongs to a set, and equipping multiple pieces of the same set activates additional bonuses.

There are currently six artifact sets in the game, each themed around a different fighting style or playstyle:

• Sun God Set – boosts melee damage and health regeneration.
• Sea King Set – increases swimming speed and water damage.
• Sky Rider Set – enhances air mobility and jump height.
• Dark Admiral Set – improves devil fruit cooldown reduction.
• Revolutionary Set – grants bonus experience and bounty.
• Pirate King Set – provides a balanced boost to all stats.

Each set has five pieces: a hat, cape, belt, boots, and accessory. You can mix and match pieces from different sets, but you only get the set bonus when you equip at least two, four, or the full five pieces of the same set.

How to Unlock Artifact Farming

Artifacts are not available from the start. You must first reach Level 1,500 and complete the “Artifact Awakening” quest, which is given by an NPC named Old Sage located on the Floating Island in the Second Sea. The quest requires you to defeat 50 Sea Kings and collect 10 Sea King Scales. After turning in the quest, you unlock the Artifact Menu (press B by default), which shows your current pieces and the drop locations for each set.

If you are already past Level 1,500 but haven’t done the quest, check your quest log—it may be under “Side Quests.” The quest is repeatable on new characters, but the Artifact Menu is account-wide once unlocked.

Where to Farm Each Artifact Set

Each set drops from a specific boss or raid, and the drop rate is roughly 5% per piece (except the accessory, which is 2%). Here’s the full list:

• Sun God Set – drops from Sun God Raid (Third Sea, Sky Island). You need a Raid Pass to enter, which costs 50,000 Beli or 50 Gems.
• Sea King Set – drops from Sea King Boss (spawns every 30 minutes in the Deep Ocean). You must be in a boat or have the Fishman race to fight it.
• Sky Rider Set – drops from Sky Guardian (Second Sea, Cloud Island). No pass required, but the boss has high HP.
• Dark Admiral Set – drops from Dark Admiral Raid (Third Sea, Marine Base). Costs 75,000 Beli or 75 Gems for a pass.
• Revolutionary Set – drops from Revolutionary Commander (Second Sea, Revolutionary Hideout). Spawns every 20 minutes.
• Pirate King Set – drops from Pirate King Raid (Third Sea, Final Island). Costs 100,000 Beli or 100 Gems for a pass.

For the raid bosses, you can do them solo or with a party. The drop rate is per player, not shared, so everyone has a chance to get a piece.

How to Upgrade Artifacts

Upgrading artifacts increases their base stat bonuses. Each piece can be upgraded to +10, and each upgrade costs Beli and a specific material. The materials are:

• Sea King Scale – from Sea Kings (drops from any Sea King).
• Sky Fragment – from Sky Guardians (drops from the Sky Guardian boss).
• Dark Shard – from Dark Admiral Raid (drops from the raid boss).
• Revolutionary Emblem – from Revolutionary Commander (drops from the boss).
• Sun Gem – from Sun God Raid (drops from the raid boss).
• Pirate King Soul – from Pirate King Raid (drops from the raid boss).

To upgrade, open the Artifact Menu, select a piece, and click “Upgrade.” The cost scales with the current level:

• +1 to +3: 5,000 Beli per upgrade, 1 material.
• +4 to +6: 15,000 Beli per upgrade, 2 materials.
• +7 to +9: 30,000 Beli per upgrade, 3 materials.
• +10: 50,000 Beli and 5 materials.

Upgrades are always successful—there is no failure chance. However, if you replace a piece with a different one, you lose the upgrade level unless you use an “Artifact Reset Scroll” (obtained from the same bosses, 1% drop). The reset scroll refunds 80% of the materials spent.

Which Artifact Set Should You Choose?

Your choice depends on your build:

• Melee fighters – Sun God Set is the best because the 2-piece bonus gives +10% melee damage, and the 5-piece bonus gives +20% health regeneration.
• Devil fruit users – Dark Admiral Set reduces cooldowns by 15% at 2 pieces and 30% at 5 pieces, letting you spam abilities.
• Farmers / grinders – Revolutionary Set gives +5% XP at 2 pieces and +15% XP at 5 pieces, making leveling faster.
• PvP players – Pirate King Set gives a flat +5% to all stats at 2 pieces and +12% at 5 pieces, which is versatile.
• Explorers – Sky Rider Set increases jump height by 20% (2 pieces) and allows double jump (5 pieces), which helps reach hidden areas.
• Underwater combat – Sea King Set increases swimming speed by 30% (2 pieces) and water damage by 40% (5 pieces).

If you are unsure, start with the Pirate King Set because it works for every playstyle. You can always switch later, but keep in mind that you’ll need to farm the new pieces from scratch.

Common Problems and Mistakes

Many players waste time farming the wrong boss. For example, the Sea King Set does not drop from regular Sea Kings—only from the Sea King Boss, which is a named enemy with a red aura. Also, raid passes are consumed on entry, so if you fail the raid, you lose the pass. Make sure you are at least Level 1,500 for Second Sea raids and Level 2,000 for Third Sea raids.

Another common mistake is upgrading a piece before you have the full set. If you later replace it with a better piece, you’ll need a reset scroll. It’s better to farm all five pieces first, then upgrade them together.

Finally, the Artifact Menu does not show drop rates, so players often think a boss is bugged. The drop rates are low—around 5% per piece—so expect to kill the boss 20+ times per piece. Bring a friend to speed up the fight.

Costs and Time Investment

Farming a full set takes roughly 10–15 hours of boss grinding, depending on your damage. The total Beli cost to upgrade a full set to +10 is:

• 5 pieces × (3×5,000 + 3×15,000 + 3×30,000 + 50,000) = 5 × 200,000 = 1,000,000 Beli.
• Materials needed: 5 × (3×1 + 3×2 + 3×3 + 5) = 5 × 23 = 115 materials.

If you buy raid passes with Beli, the total cost for the three raid sets is 225,000 Beli per set (Sun God, Dark Admiral, Pirate King). The non-raid sets (Sea King, Sky Rider, Revolutionary) cost nothing but require waiting for boss spawns.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I trade artifacts with other players?

No, artifacts are untradeable. They are bound to your account once dropped. You can, however, store them in your warehouse and use them on any character on the same account.

Do artifact bonuses stack with other gear?

Yes, artifact bonuses stack with weapon and armor bonuses. For example, if you have a sword that gives +10% melee damage and the Sun God 2-piece bonus gives +10%, you get +20% total. The only exception is that you cannot equip two artifacts of the same slot (e.g., two hats).

What happens if I reset my stats?

Resetting stats does not affect your artifacts. They remain equipped and keep their bonuses. However, if you change your race (e.g., from Fishman to Human), you will lose the race-specific synergy with the Sea King Set, but the set still works.

Is the Artifact Reset Scroll worth it?

Only if you have a high-level piece (like +8 or higher) that you want to replace. The scroll refunds 80% of the materials, so you lose 20% in the exchange. For lower-level pieces, it’s cheaper to just farm new materials.

Can I get artifacts from chests?

No, artifacts only drop from the specific bosses listed above. Chests in the world give Beli, fruits, and weapons, but not artifacts.

Do artifact drop rates increase with game passes?

No, drop rates are fixed. The only way to increase your chances is to kill the boss more times. Some players believe that having a higher luck stat helps, but that is not confirmed by the game’s code.
