Here’s everything you need to know to farm it efficiently and use every copy wisely.

What Is Ice Core in Sailor Piece?

Ice Core is a Mythical-rarity crafting material exclusive to the Ice Queen boss on Boss Island. It has a 0.5% base drop rate, making it the rarest item from this boss, rarer than Frozen Brand (1.5%) and well below Frost Relic (mob drops). The good news: Sailor Piece’s pity system guarantees a Mythical drop after 25 boss kills, which can be Ice Core, Frozen Brand, or the Ice Queen Outfit.

You need 3 Ice Cores total across both progression steps, so plan your farming accordingly from the start.

How to Farm Ice Core in Sailor Piece?

How to Farm Ice Core in Sailor Piece?

Ice Core only drops from the Ice Queen boss. Here’s the exact process:

  1. Gather Frost Relics β€” these are low-drop mob items from Lawless Island, Shinjuku Island, and Ninja Island. Farm Arena Fighters on Lawless Island for the best rate. Boost your Luck stat before farming.
  2. Teleport to Boss Island β€” it’s the eighth island on the portal list.
  3. Spawn the Ice Queen β€” interact with the Boss Summoner NPC and select Ice Queen. Choose your difficulty:
DifficultyBoss HPNotes
Normal1,650,000,000More runs per hour if you’re under-geared
HardHigherBetter drop rates
ExtremeHighestBest drop rates; requires strong build
  1. Fight and collect β€” the boss applies constant slowing effects, so having a build with strong DPS and solid HP is essential. Check our Sailor Piece Titles Guide for damage-boosting title combos.

Pro tip: If you’re low on Frost Relics, wait on Boss Island for another player to spawn the Ice Queen. You can collect drops from a kill you didn’t pay to summon, free runs count toward pity.

Run Normal difficulty until you can clear Hard in under 2–3 minutes. More kills per hour beats higher per-kill drop rates at lower efficiency.

What Is Ice Core Used For?

Ice Core has two uses in the Ice Queen progression chain, and you’ll need both.

1. Ice Queen Sword (1Γ— Ice Core)

To purchase the Ice Queen Sword from the Esdeath NPC on Boss Island, you need:

MaterialQuantity
Ice Core1
Frozen Brand4
Glacier Remnant9
Battle Shard17
Frost Relic25
Frost Empress TitleRequired
Gems40,000

The Frost Empress title drops from the Ice Queen boss itself (check our Sailor Piece Bosses Guide for boss strategies). The NPC is located northeast on Boss Island, under the hand statue.

2. Ice Queen F Move Mastery (2Γ— Ice Core)

Unlocking the sword’s ultimate F Move requires visiting the Ice Queen F Move Mastery NPC β€” located on top of the hand statue tree on the right side of Boss Island, alongside other Mastery NPCs.

MaterialQuantity
Ice Core2
Frozen Brand10
Frost Relic85
Ice Queen SwordMust own
Frostbane ClanRequired

The F Move summons a blizzard that deals 100 billion damage over an extended AOE and adds a permanent +30% damage bonus to the sword. Frostbane is a Mythical clan requiring 500 clan rerolls to trigger pity, use Sailor Piece codes to stockpile free rerolls. See the Sailor Piece Ascension Guide for ways to boost your overall power before taking on this grind.

Farming Tips to Speed Up the Grind

  • Stack Luck β€” use Luck-boosting titles, clans like Monarch (+10% Luck), and Luckborn race (+35% Luck, added in the Ice Update)
  • 2x Luck events β€” the 2x Luck event ran April 9–10 after the Ice Update; watch Discord for future events
  • Kill fast, not slow β€” efficiency matters more than difficulty when you’re still building damage
  • Pity tracks toward Mythical β€” any Legendary drop before 25 kills does NOT reset your pity counter, only getting a Mythical does
