If your damage in Sailor Piece still feels low even with decent gear, the issue is usually not one missing item. In practice, high DPS comes from stacking the right systems together: weapon, artifacts, trait, race, title, rune, and permanent upgrades. We tested the build path below as the most efficient way to raise damage without wasting too many rerolls or farming hours.

↖ Best Damage Build at a Glance

For most players, this is the strongest current setup for pure damage.

This is the core build. If you are missing one or two parts, the build still works, but your damage ceiling drops fast.

↖ What to Prioritize First

From experience, the best way to build damage is not to reroll everything at once. Start with the parts that give the biggest return.

↖ 1. Get Abyssal Crown Artifacts

Artifacts are the biggest gap between average and high-damage players. If you have never focused on them, this is where your missing damage usually is.

Best farm spots:

For pure DPS, Abyssal Crown is better than Celestial because it gives more valuable raw damage and crit damage.

↖ 2. Use the Right Artifact Stats

A lot of players equip the right set but lose damage on bad stat rolls. This is the artifact layout that performs best in real gameplay.

One important detail: a sub stat cannot match the main stat. That matters when you decide what is worth upgrading.

↖ 3. Finish the Main Damage Rolls

Once your artifacts are in place, go after the highest-value rolls:

• Rampage for spec passive
• Curse Brand for power
• Emperor for trait
• Luckborn for race
• Frostbane for clan
• Frost Empress for title
• Primordial Rune from Infinity Tower

This is where the build starts to feel complete. Before that point, damage can still feel uneven.

↖ Why Abyssal Crown Is the Best Artifact Set

Here's the short comparison most players need.

In actual grinding, Abyssal scales better once the rest of your build is already strong. Celestial is fine early on, but if your goal is top-end damage, switch to Abyssal as soon as you can.

↖ Upgrade Mistakes That Lower Your Damage

The most common mistakes we see are simple:

• Not unlocking artifacts early
• Using the right set but wrong main stats
• Ignoring artifact upgrades
• Stopping at good enough rerolls
• Skipping permanent upgrades like skill tree, Boss Rush, and ascension

Artifacts should also be upgraded properly. Dust comes from deleting weak artifacts, and in most cases you should auto-delete low-value pieces so your inventory does not become a museum of bad decisions.

↖ Best Farming Order for Fast Progress

If you want the shortest path to stronger damage, follow this order:

1. Unlock artifacts

2. Farm Abyssal Crown

3. Get Ice Sword

4. Roll Rampage

5. Roll Curse Brand

6. Roll Emperor

7. Roll Luckborn

8. Roll Frostbane

9. Farm Frost Empress

10. Farm Primordial Rune

11. Upgrade artifacts

12. Finish skill tree, Boss Rush, and ascension

13. Reroll stats to SSS

This order works well because it avoids over-investing in small upgrades before the major multipliers are online.

↖ FAQ

↖ What is the best damage artifact set in Sailor Piece?

Abyssal Crown is the best current set for pure damage. It gives better raw damage and crit damage scaling than the main alternatives.

↖ Is Ice Sword still the best weapon for a damage build?

Yes, for this build path, Ice Sword is still the main target because it fits the current strongest sword-based DPS setup.

↖ Is Luckborn really better than other races for damage?

Yes. Even though the name sounds utility-focused, Luckborn gives excellent damage stats, sword scaling, and enough extra survivability to make it one of the best overall picks.

↖ Should I chase Z stat roll instead of SSS?

Not unless you are extremely lucky or already finished everything else. SSS is the practical target for almost all players.

↖ Final Notes

The best Sailor Piece damage build right now is built around Abyssal Crown, Ice Sword, Rampage, Emperor, Luckborn, Frostbane, Frost Empress, and Primordial Rune. From experience, the biggest jump comes when you stop treating these systems separately and build them together.

That's what really changes your account from decent damage to the kind of DPS that clears faster, farms smoother, and makes late-game progression much easier.
