Sailor Piece packs an unusual amount of build depth for a Roblox RPG. Rather than leaning on a single power system, the game layers Swords, Melee Specs, Devil Fruits, Races, Traits, Clans, Runes, Artifacts, and Accessories on top of each other — and the Moon Update has reshuffled the pecking order across nearly every category. Below you'll find consensus rankings for each system so you can zero in on the upgrades that matter most for your build.
Quick answer: For raw DPS in the current meta, pair Atomic or Shadow Monarch (swords) with Moon Slayer or Strongest Shinobi (melee), the Warlord or Sunborn race, the Emperor trait, and an Upper or Alter clan. Light is the top Devil Fruit thanks to its flight and sustained damage.
Swords Tier List (April 2026)
Swords are one of the three main weapon types, and the endgame options dwarf everything available early on. Atomic deals the highest raw damage in the game but requires the Shadow Sword, the Eminence Incarnate title, and a stack of Atomic materials from Lawless Island. Shadow Monarch sits right beside it with excellent burst skills, obtained on Dungeon Island after earning the King of Shadows title. Both are hard to farm, but their DPS justifies the grind.
| Tier | Swords |
|---|---|
| S+ | Atomic, Shadow Monarch |
| S | Abyssal Empress, True Aizen, Yamato, Escanor, Rimuru, Shadow |
| A | Ichigo, Aizen, Ragna |
| B | Jinwoo, Saber |
| C | Gryphon, Dark Blade, Katana |
If you're just starting out, grab the Katana on Starter Island, clear through Jungle Island, and buy the Gryphon at Shibuya Station for 650,000 Gold and 650 Gems. It will carry you comfortably into mid-game content while you farm materials for a mythic-tier upgrade. Abyssal Empress is a strong late-game pick that's comparatively easy to obtain through the Infinite Tower.
Melee Specs Tier List (April 2026)
Melee Specs (fighting styles) are the other major damage source. Moon Slayer and Strongest Shinobi sit a tier above the rest. Strongest Shinobi boasts the highest raw damage stats of any spec, though its cooldowns are long. Moon Slayer compensates with shorter cooldowns and strong critical/burst damage, making it more forgiving in extended boss fights.
| Tier | Melee Specs |
|---|---|
| S+ | Moon Slayer, Strongest Shinobi |
| S | Anos, Corrupted Excalibur (Saber Alter), Gilgamesh, Strongest in History |
| A | Strongest of Today, Madoka, Alucard, Qin Shi |
| B | Sukuna, Gojo, Yuji |
| C | Combat |
Beginners should target Qin Shi or Madoka first. Both are relatively easy to obtain early and can put out respectable DPS once you stack Blessings. Anos is a strong mid-to-late option with massive burst and AoE, though its long animations leave you vulnerable. Corrupted Excalibur (Saber Alter) hits extremely hard with its F move but requires precise positioning. Combat, the default starter spec, should be replaced as soon as possible.
Devil Fruits Tier List (April 2026)
Sailor Piece currently has only five Devil Fruits. Light stands alone at the top because it combines strong AoE damage with flight via its V move, giving it unmatched mobility. Quake is the best pure-damage fruit — its C move can wipe an entire island of mobs in seconds, making it the go-to for farming. Flame works well in the early and mid game but falls off at higher levels.
| Tier | Fruits |
|---|---|
| S | Light |
| A | Quake, Flame |
| B | Bomb |
| D | Invisible |
Fruits are fairly easy to acquire, so aim for Light or Quake rather than settling for a lower-tier option. Invisible provides stealth but almost zero combat value, making it the weakest choice for any damage-focused build. Don't waste Fruit Bag Storage on Bomb or Invisible if you can avoid it.
Races Tier List (April 2026)
Your race directly shapes your stat profile and build synergy. The best race depends on whether you main a sword or a melee spec. Warlord has the highest damage multiplier in the game and pairs perfectly with melee builds. Sunborn offers sword damage multipliers, lifesteal, and massive HP — making it the strongest all-around race. Swordblessed is essential if you're chasing the Yamato sword and want to maximize sword-specific scaling. Galevorn rounds out the top tier with huge melee and HP buffs.
| Tier | Races |
|---|---|
| S | Warlord, Swordblessed, Galevorn, Sunborn, Servant, Kitsune |
| A | Slime, Leviathan, Oni, Hollow, Shinigami |
| B | Shadowborn, Player, Vessel, Limitless, Vampire |
| C | Demon, Orc, Fishman, Mink |
| D | Skypea, Human |
Several B-tier races gain significant value when paired with a matching weapon. Hollow boosts Ichigo sword builds, Shinigami boosts Aizen builds, and Shadowborn synergizes with the Shadow sword. Outside those specific pairings, their bonuses are average. Human provides no stat bonuses at all and should be rerolled immediately using Race Reroll items, which drop from bosses and mobs.
Traits Tier List (April 2026)
Traits affect three core stats: Damage, Defense, and Cooldown Reduction. Emperor is the undisputed best trait, offering the highest damage boost and cooldown reduction in the game. The remaining Secret-rarity traits — Celestial, Singularity, Cataclysm, Overlord — are all excellent, though their low roll chance makes them difficult to land. Malevolent is a Mythic-rarity alternative that still delivers strong damage multipliers and cooldown reduction, making it the most practical high-end option for players who haven't rolled a Secret yet.
| Tier | Traits |
|---|---|
| S+ | Emperor |
| S | Celestial, Singularity, Cataclysm, Overlord, Malevolent |
| A | Transcendent, Infinity, Godspeed, Sovereign, Genesis |
| B | Dominator, Unstoppable, Overdrive, Ascended |
| C | Breaker, Sharpened, Vicious, Predator, Driven |
| D | Balanced, Steady, Agile, Strong, Tough |
D-tier traits like Balanced, Steady, and Tough provide negligible stat increases and should be rerolled as soon as you have Trait Reroll items. Godspeed is worth noting for cooldown-heavy builds — if your spec relies on frequent skill usage, the extra cooldown reduction can outperform a raw damage trait in practice.
Clans Tier List (April 2026)
Clans provide passive bonuses that stack on top of everything else. Upper, Alter, and Espada occupy the top tier. Upper's passive increases damage after every skill used, which scales incredibly well in prolonged boss encounters. Alter works similarly, dealing bonus damage whenever you use abilities. Espada mirrors Alter's mechanic with a slightly longer ability requirement.
| Tier | Clans |
|---|---|
| S+ | Upper, Alter, Espada |
| S | Eminence, Pride, Monarch, Voldigoat |
| A | Mugetsu, Yamato, Zoldyck |
| B | Raikage |
| C | Sasaki |
Monarch deserves a callout for farming builds — it provides strong damage bonuses plus a chance to gain extra drops from bosses. Voldigoat increases damage against low-health enemies, making it a strong pick for quickly finishing off bosses. Eminence is best suited for sword builds, while Upper and Alter lean toward melee. You can reroll clans using Clan Reroll items dropped by bosses and mobs.
Runes Tier List (April 2026)
Runes slot into your build for additional passive bonuses. Primordial and Radiant are both Secret-rarity runes obtainable exclusively through Infinite Tower Mode. Radiant can increase damage by up to 168 percent, while Primordial boosts luck by up to 39 percent — making them the best DPS and farming runes, respectively.
| Tier | Runes |
|---|---|
| S+ | Primordial, Radiant |
| S | Havoc, Wrath, Fortune |
| A | Destruction |
| B | Inferno, Blood |
| C | Frost, Guardian, Suppression |
Havoc provides an 82 percent damage boost, making it the strongest non-Secret DPS rune. Wrath is the next best option if Havoc hasn't dropped for you. Fortune increases luck for better rare-drop odds and pairs well with the Kitsune race for dedicated farming runs. Guardian and Suppression offer defensive utility but no damage, which limits their value in most builds.
Artifacts Tier List (April 2026)
Artifact sets grant bonus stats when you equip multiple pieces from the same collection. Abyssal Crown offers the best DPS bonuses and critical stats, farmed from Ninja Island and Lawless Island. Celestial Rupture is close behind, adding lifesteal on top of strong damage scaling — it drops across Shinjuku, Valentine, Slime, and Academy Islands.
| Tier | Artifact Sets |
|---|---|
| S+ | Abyssal Crown |
| S | Celestial Rupture |
| A | Void Reaver |
| B | Black Horizon |
| C | Crownless Regalia, Ashen Chronicles |
Void Reaver is a solid early-game set obtained from boss drops, though it falls off slightly in endgame content. Crownless Regalia and Ashen Chronicles lean defensive and lack the offensive scaling needed for late-game boss grinding.
Accessories Tier List (April 2026)
Accessories have a wide S-tier pool in the Moon Update meta. Moon Outfit, Atomic Outfit, Abyssal Outfit, Gilgamesh Armor, Sun Armor, Anos Outfit, Monarch Armor, Alter Armor, Imperial Outfit, Maiden Outfit, Divine Wheel, and Manipulator Outfit all provide top-tier stat boosts. This gives you plenty of flexibility to match your accessory to the rest of your build without sacrificing power.
| Tier | Accessories |
|---|---|
| S | Moon Outfit, Atomic Outfit, Abyssal Outfit, Alter Armor, Gilgamesh Armor, Sun Armor, Anos Outfit, Monarch Armor, Imperial Outfit, Maiden Outfit, Divine Wheel, Manipulator Outfit |
| A | Slime Wings, Ultimate Wings, Gojo Haori, Hollow Mask, Shadow Cloak, Aizen Haori, Heart Wings |
| B | Alucard Coat, Ragna Sigil, Qin Shi Blindfold, Jinwoo Cape |
| C | Sukuna Collar, Gojo Blindfold, Valentine Heart |
| D | Yuji Hair, Saber Armor, Santa Hat |
Putting a Build Together
The ranking factors across all categories share a common thread: DPS is king. Weapons, races, traits, clans, and runes are all evaluated primarily on how much damage they enable against mobs, mini-bosses, and world bosses. The notable exception is the Light fruit, which earns its S-tier placement largely through flight utility rather than pure damage numbers.
Race and trait synergy matters more than individual tier placement in some cases. A Swordblessed race paired with Yamato will outperform a Warlord race using the same sword, because Swordblessed specifically amplifies sword damage. Similarly, some lower-tier traits can outperform higher-tier ones when they align with a specific weapon's scaling. Experiment with combinations rather than blindly chasing the highest-rated option in each slot.
Auras and Titles function as linear stat boosters — stronger versions simply provide higher numbers. Boss-drop titles tend to offer the biggest damage increases, while event titles can be powerful but are time-limited. Focus on unlocking the strongest title you can access at your current progression level, and upgrade as you clear harder content.
These rankings reflect the state of the game following the Moon Update. Future patches will inevitably shift the meta, so keep an eye on balance changes whenever a major update drops.
