Sailor Piece King Update Routes

The King Update is not one grind. It splits into three route families: Light V2 Raid, Gilgamesh V2, and Frost Empress Sword. Pick one route first, save route-specific materials, and read the live game UI before spending fragments.

Route Priority Cards

Light V2 Raid

Best for
Fruit mains, raid players, and fast travel users who already rely on Light.
Start when
Start after you can safely enter the current endgame route and survive raid boss mechanics.

Do first

  • Redeem KINGUPDATEHASARRIVED and RAIDUPDATENOW.
  • Find the Light Raid NPC once the current server exposes the route.
  • Farm Light Guardian for Light Fragment progress.
  • Check the live game UI before spending fragments or gems.

Avoid

  • Do not copy 1B Gems / 1000M Gems launch display numbers.

Gilgamesh V2

Best for
Melee mains who want the new King of Heroes route and fifth move path.
Start when
Start after reaching Gilgamesh Island and confirming the post-hotfix requirement display.

Do first

  • Farm the new Gilgamesh Boss route.
  • Bank Gate Fragments until the V2 and fifth move UI confirms spend order.
  • Unlock base Gilgamesh V2 before chasing fifth move extras.
  • Keep old Gilgamesh route notes separate from the V2 route.

Avoid

  • Do not spend Gate Fragments before the route UI confirms the target step.

Frost Empress Sword

Best for
Sword mains who want the newest sword route and fifth move path.
Start when
Start after reaching Frost Empress Island and preparing enough defense for repeated boss loops.

Do first

  • Farm Frost Empress Boss.
  • Save Soul Fragments until the game UI confirms each spend.
  • Save Bankai Essence until the route UI shows the spend order.
  • Unlock the base sword before chasing fifth move requirements.

Avoid

  • Do not spend Bankai Essence before the route UI shows the target step.
