Your first steps on Starter Island
StepEvery new player begins here, and there are two quests to work through before you sail anywhere else. A vendor near the start sells a pistol for 175 Peli and a rifle for 300 Peli, and another NPC sells a stamina drink for 75 Peli and a health drink for 195 Peli. Once you have finished both quests, the dock quest sends you to Sandora and gives bonus EXP on the way.
- First quest (levels 1–5) talk to the NPC at the top right of the quest area and kill Bandits.
- Second quest (levels 5–10) accept the bandit boss quest from the NPC at the bottom right, then fight the boss at the top left.
- Dock quest (level 10) pick it up at the docks for extra EXP and a guided route to Sandora.
Leveling path from 1 to max
CheckThe game gives you a clear sequence of islands tied to level ranges. The core loop in each zone is the same: accept the local quest, pull enemies toward a wall or obstacle so they bunch up, then hit them with your fighting style.
- Levels 0–15 Farm the Daph quest and kill Bandits at the Town of Beginnings.
- Levels 15–20 Complete Noah's quest at Sandora; groups should bring a Bazooka.
- Levels 20–40: Grind NPCs along the path at Shell's Town; buy the Galleon boat here it is the fastest non-gamepass boat.
- Levels 40–110 Grind Krieg Pirates at Baratie by luring them to a wall; solo players should stay until level 110.
- Levels 75–110 At Arlong Park (recommended for groups), lure all Saw Shark Pirates to the purple then brown house, jump over the fence, and wait for NPCs to accumulate before attacking.
- Levels 110–160 At Sky Castle, attack the Head Guardian to draw monsters to you, then step outside the castle and hit them from behind the wall.
- Levels 160–190 Lure Gravito's Undermen at Gravito's Fort back to the quest area, then strike from behind a wall.
- Levels 190–325 Fishman Island and Sea Beast are both viable; Sea Beast at Marine Base G-1 works best in a group because EXP scales with how much damage you deal.
- Levels 325–425 Choose between Kraken runs in Sea 2, Crab minions in the Crab Cave, Zombies at Thriller Bark Graveyard, or Crazy Wolves at Rose Kingdom.
Devil Fruits — rarity tiers and how to find them
TableEating a Devil Fruit gives your character a special power that changes how you fight. Fruits spawn naturally under trees, turn up through fishing, appear in fruit chests, and drop inside dungeons. In dungeons, wave 25 and above guarantees a fruit drop for the top damage dealer, and at wave 50 and above Common fruits are removed from the pool entirely. Friday through Sunday the game runs doubled Legendary and Mythical fruit rates alongside doubled boss drop rates and a 1.25x EXP boost.
| Common | Suke, Kilo, Spin, Heal |
| Rare | Bari, Mero, Horo, Gomu, Bomu |
| Epic | Yomi, Spring, Kira |
| Legendary | Mera, Pika, Hie, Magu, Goro, Gura, Zushi, Suna, Ito, Paw, Yuki, Kage, Yami, Goru, Smoke, Biscuit |
| Mythical | Tori, Mochi, Ope, Venom, Buddha, Pteranodon, Dragon, Soul, Leopard |
Fishing and crafted gear
TipsSeveral pieces of Legendary gear can only be obtained through fishing or by crafting with fish you catch. The Blacksmith Sen NPC handles both brews and crafting.
- Pour a Basic Fish Luck Brew over water to raise fishing luck by 20% for a short time in that area — it does not stack with other brews.
- The Rare Fish Luck Brew, made from Legendary fish, raises luck by 27.5% for two minutes in the area.
- Fishing at Rough Waters gives higher chances of pulling up the Sunken Anchor, Sunken Helmet, and Sunken Armor — all Legendary rarity.
- The Skeletal Shark Mask (Epic) requires 8 Skeletal Sharks and its blueprint, crafted at Blacksmith Sen.
- The Angler's Lantern (Legendary) requires 8 Anglerfish and its blueprint; the Swordfish Rapier (Legendary) requires 25 Swordfish and its blueprint.
- The Dark Skeletal Shark Mask (Legendary) requires 15 Dark Skeletal Sharks and its blueprint.

Common questions
FAQWhen should I buy the Galleon boat?
Pick it up during your time at Shell's Town, which covers levels 20–40. It is available in one of the houses there and is the fastest boat you can get without a gamepass.
What is the best time to hunt for rare fruits or boss drops?
Friday through Sunday the game runs 2x Legendary and Mythical fruit rates, 2x boss drop rates, and a 1.25x EXP boost.
Does grouping up affect how much EXP I get?
Yes. If a friend deals half the damage on an enemy, you only receive half the EXP for that kill. For Sea Beast specifically, EXP scales with the damage you personally deal.
What do redeem codes give me?
Codes can reward 2x drop rate boosts, 2x EXP boosts, race rerolls, stat resets, Devil Fruit resets, and Tailor Vouchers. Most codes can only be used once, and they expire over time.
