How to Obtain Gilgamesh
Unlocking Gilgamesh requires players to gather specific materials, craft a rare summoning item, and defeat the Gilgamesh boss. The entire process begins at Legends Arena, where the Gilgamesh Seller NPC displays all current requirements.
Step 1: Reach Legends Arena
Travel to Legends Arena. This island houses all the essential NPCs for the Gilgamesh questline, including the seller, the crafting NPC, and the mastery trainer.
Step 2: Craft the Holy Grail
The Holy Grail is the mandatory item to spawn the Gilgamesh boss. You cannot access the fight without it.
| Requirement | Details | Drop Source |
|---|---|---|
| Golden Dust | Core crafting material | All mobs in the game (low chance) |
| Holy Grail | Summons Gilgamesh boss | Crafted via specific NPC |
| Gilgamesh Boss | Must be defeated to unlock unit | Legends Arena summon |
Golden Dust drops from every mob in the game but at a very low probability. Focus on farming high-density mob areas or bosses that can be killed quickly to maximize your chances per hour.
Step 3: Defeat the Gilgamesh Boss
Once you have the Holy Grail, interact with the summoning mechanism in Legends Arena to spawn the Gilgamesh boss. Defeat it to collect the items needed for the Gilgamesh seller to unlock the unit for your character.
Farm Golden Dust
- Kill mobs rapidly
- Target high-density zones
- Party farming recommended
Craft Holy Grail
- Visit crafting NPC
- Submit Golden Dust
- Receive Holy Grail
Summon & Fight
- Go to Legends Arena
- Use Holy Grail
- Defeat Gilgamesh boss
Gilgamesh Mastery Questline
Obtaining Gilgamesh is only the beginning. To unlock the unit's full potential and complete its mastery, players must complete a grueling 10-quest chain. The mastery NPC is located at the back of Legends Arena.
Deal 850 Million Damage
Use the Gilgamesh unit to deal a total of 850,000,000 damage. This quest tests your commitment to learning the moveset and farming efficiently.
Obtain Mythical Demigod Race
Acquire the new Mythical Demigod race through the race reroll system. This may require significant luck or reroll tokens.
Kill Shanks Boss (50 Times)
Defeat the Shanks boss 50 times. Focus on learning his attack patterns to speed up runs.
Kill Mihawk Boss (50 Times)
Eliminate the Mihawk boss 50 times. Similar to Shanks, pattern memorization is critical for fast clears.
Kill Ichigo Bankai (35 Times)
Take down the Ichigo Bankai boss 35 times. This boss is typically more aggressive, so maintain proper spacing.
Kill Saber Boss (25 Times)
Defeat the Saber boss 25 times. Saber can be highly mobile, so use tracking abilities from Gilgamesh's kit.
Kill Sung Jinwoo (2 Times)
Defeat Sung Jinwoo twice. This is a high-difficulty encounter requiring optimal positioning and dodging.
Kill Rimuru (1 Time)
Eliminate Rimuru once. A single-target challenge that tests your maximum damage output.
Kill Aizen (2 Times)
Defeat Aizen twice. Watch out for area-of-effect attacks and illusion mechanics.
Kill Gilgamesh on Hard/Extreme (10 Times)
Defeat the Gilgamesh boss 10 times on Hard or Extreme difficulty. The ultimate test of mastery preparation.
If you prefer to skip the grind, purchasing the relevant gamepass instantly unlocks Gilgamesh's mastery. This is a viable option for players who want to focus purely on endgame content without the repetitive boss farming.

Combat Strategy & Loadout Tips
Maximizing Gilgamesh's effectiveness requires understanding the moveset and pairing it with the right setup. The unit shines in sustained damage and burst scenarios, making it ideal for both the mastery quests and general PvE content.
Offensive Strategy
- Maximize DPS windows during boss stun phases
- Use ranged Gilgamesh attacks for mobile bosses like Saber
- Prioritize area-of-effect moves for mob clearing
