Blox Fruits Tier Seventeen Weapon Farming Guide

Getting a Tier 17 weapon in Blox Fruits is one of the biggest goals in the game. These weapons are incredibly powerful, but getting them means you need to reach the final level, 17. That means you need to know the best ways to farm from the very start to hit that number. This is about the specific strategies you use to farm your way to level 17 so you can finally earn those top-tier weapons.

What does farming for level 17 actually mean?

Farming for level 17 isn't just about killing NPCs. It's a long-term plan. You start at a low level and use specific methods to gain experience points (EXP) efficiently until you max out at level 17. Once you're level 17, you can complete the final quests and challenges to obtain Tier 17 weapons like the Dark Blade or the Soul Guitar. The grind from level 1 to 17 is the longest part of the game, so your farming method makes all the difference.

When should you start planning your farming method?

The best time to think about this is right from the beginning. If you just grind randomly, you'll waste a lot of time. Having a plan from level 1 helps you avoid getting stuck in the mid-game. It's also crucial when you feel your progress is slowing down around levels 10 to 14, which is a common plateau for many players.

Common mistakes that slow down your progress

Farming low-level NPCs: Staying in an area too long after you've out-leveled it gives you very little EXP.
Ignoring quests: Many players just grind NPCs, but story and bounty quests often give bigger EXP rewards.
Not using a proper fruit: Your Blox Fruit ability is your main damage source. Using a fruit with poor area-of-effect (AOE) damage makes farming single targets much slower.
Solo grinding only: While possible, farming alone is often slower than using cooperative methods with a squad.

How to farm efficiently from level 1 to 17

The core idea is to always be fighting NPCs that are close to your current level. As soon as you can defeat the NPCs in a new island or area, move there. Don't get comfortable.

Use a Blox Fruit with strong AOE attacks. Fruits like Light, Ice, or Flame let you hit multiple enemies at once, clearing groups much faster than single-target fruits.

Always accept the highest-level bounty and story quests you can find. These give you a clear EXP target and often reward you for killing specific bosses or NPCs you should be farming anyway.

A practical example of the leveling path

Here's a straightforward route many players follow:

Level 1-10: Grind on Starter Island NPCs and complete the early quests.
Level 10-15: Move to the Pirate Village or Desert, farming the bandits and soldiers there.
Level 15-17: This is the final push. You'll need to farm in the Ice Castle or on the Volcano Island. At this stage, consider using passive leveling methods like auto-click setups if you're playing solo, to maintain consistent EXP gain.

Tips for the final push to level 17

The last few levels feel slow because the EXP requirements are huge. Here are a few ways to speed it up.

If you're struggling to find good NPCs, you might need to unlock and defeat the 17th boss. Defeating this boss isn't just for the weapon; it often opens up a new, high-level farming area with NPCs that give excellent EXP.

Turn on your double EXP boost if you have one. Save any EXP potions or game passes that increase EXP gain for this stage.

Play during server events if the game has them. Sometimes events increase EXP gains or spawn more NPCs.

What to do after you reach level 17

Once you finally hit level 17, the farming for EXP is over. Now your goal shifts to farming for the Tier 17 weapon itself. This usually means defeating the level 17 boss multiple times to collect the required rare drops or completing a long and difficult quest chain. Your farming skills will still be useful, but now you're farming for specific items instead of experience points.
