How to Get Garp’s Melee (Galaxy Punch)
Garp’s Melee, also known as the Galaxy Punch, is the crown jewel of Horizon Legacy’s latest update. This devastating melee weapon requires completing a series of quests tied to legendary One Piece characters on Marineford Island. As someone who’s gone through this entire process, I can tell you it’s worth every minute of effort.
Prerequisites Before Starting
Before you embark on this epic quest line, make sure you’re properly prepared:
Level Requirement: At least level 15,000 (recommended 20,000+)
Equipment: Bring your best ranged weapons and mobility items
Time Commitment: Set aside 2-4 hours for completion
Server Strategy: Have a plan for server hopping during boss spawns
Step 1: Complete Luffy’s Quest
The first quest in your journey to obtain Garp’s Melee comes from everyone’s favorite rubber-bodied pirate.
Objective: Defeat two ghost ships
Location: Marineford Island waters
Strategy:
Ghost ships appear periodically around Marineford Island
Each ship has cannons and NPC mobs that can quickly overwhelm unprepared players
I recommend using ranged abilities to pick off enemies from a distance
Mobility skills are crucial for dodging cannon fire
The ships have approximately 500,000 HP each
Pro Tips:
Time your attacks between cannon volleys
Focus on the ship’s mast first to reduce their accuracy
Bring healing items as the mobs can deal significant damage
Consider teaming up with other players for faster clears
Spawn Timer: Ghost ships spawn every 20 minutes Completion Time: 15-30 minutes per ship
Step 2: Complete Sabo’s Quest
After proving yourself against the ghost ships, Sabo will task you with a more challenging objective.
Objective: Defeat the Marineford boss five times
Location: Marineford Island (central area)
Boss Details:
The Marineford boss is a formidable foe with 2 million HP
Uses a combination of melee attacks and area-of-effect abilities
Has three phases that trigger at 66% and 33% health
Drops various materials and occasionally rare weapons
Strategy:
Learn the boss’s attack patterns to avoid taking unnecessary damage
Phase 1 (100-66% HP): Basic melee attacks and occasional cannon fire
Phase 3 (33-0% HP): Unleashes devastating ultimate attacks that can one-shot unprepared players
Pro Tips:
Use hit-and-run tactics to minimize damage taken
Save your strongest abilities for phase 3 when the boss is most dangerous
Consider playing in public servers to find other players helping with the fight
Server hopping can help you find instances where the boss is already spawned
Spawn Timer: Every 20 minutes Completion Time: 5-10 minutes per defeat (45-50 minutes total)
Step 3: Complete Whitebeard’s Quest
The final quest in this trilogy comes from the legendary Whitebeard, testing your patience and map awareness.
Objective: Activate map buttons that spawn every 10 minutes
Location: Various islands (front areas)
Mechanics:
Special buttons spawn randomly at the front of different islands
When a button spawns, the game displays a chat message: “Traces of the pirate has spawned”
You have 2 minutes to reach and activate the button before it disappears
Need to activate 5 buttons to complete the quest
Strategy:
Stay near island fronts to maximize your chances of being close when a button spawns
Use mobility skills to quickly reach spawn locations
Pay attention to chat messages for spawn notifications
Coordinate with other players to cover multiple island fronts simultaneously
Pro Tips:
Create a route that covers multiple island fronts efficiently
Use speed-boosting items or abilities to reduce travel time
Consider playing during off-peak hours when there’s less competition for buttons
Some players report better spawn rates on certain servers – experiment to find what works for you
Spawn Timer: Every 10 minutes Completion Time: 30-60 minutes (depending on luck and competition)
Claiming Your Reward: Galaxy Punch
After completing all three quests, return to the Garp NPC on Marineford Island to claim your well-deserved reward: the Galaxy Punch.
Weapon Stats:
Base Damage: 15,000-25,000 per hit
Special Ability: Galaxy Impact (area-of-effect punch with knockback)
Attack Speed: Medium (1.2 seconds between attacks)
Range: Short melee range with extended AoE
Special Effects: Black lightning effects on critical hits
Combat Tips:
The Galaxy Punch excels at crowd control with its wide-area attacks
Use the special ability when surrounded by multiple enemies
The weapon scales well with strength and attack speed stats
Consider pairing with mobility items to close distances quickly

2026 Advanced Strategies and Pro Tips
Boss Farming Optimization
After spending dozens of hours farming these bosses, I’ve discovered several optimization strategies:
Server Hopping Technique:
Join a server and check if the boss you need is spawned
If not, leave and join a different server immediately
Repeat until you find a server with your target boss active
This method can reduce waiting time by up to 80%
Group Coordination:
Form parties with other players working on the same quests
Coordinate attacks to maximize damage output
Share information about spawn locations and timers
Use voice chat or in-game communication for better coordination
Time Management:
Create a schedule around boss spawn timers
Set alarms for 5 minutes before expected spawns
Use downtime between spawns to farm materials or complete other quests
Consider playing during off-peak hours for less competition
Equipment Recommendations
For Garp’s Quest Line:
Primary Weapon: Long-range weapon for ghost ships
Secondary Weapon: High-damage melee for boss fights
Armor: Balanced defense and mobility
Accessories: Movement speed and attack damage items
For Takamura Boss Fight:
Primary Weapon: Fast-attacking melee weapon
Armor: High defense with damage reduction
Accessories: Attack speed and critical hit chance items
Consumables: Healing items and damage boosters
Stat Prioritization
Early Game (Levels 1-10,000):
Focus on basic stats: Health, Attack, Defense
Unlock basic movement abilities
Save currency for important equipment upgrades
Mid Game (Levels 10,000-25,000):
Prioritize weapon-specific stats
Invest in mobility and utility abilities
Start farming for better equipment
Late Game (Levels 25,000+):
Max out your primary weapon’s scaling stats
Focus on optimization and min-maxing
Farm for rare and legendary equipment
Common Mistakes to Avoid
1. Underestimating Boss Mechanics
Many players rush into boss fights without understanding attack patterns, leading to unnecessary deaths. Take time to learn each boss’s mechanics before going all-in on damage.
2. Poor Time Management
Boss spawn timers are crucial. I’ve seen players waste hours waiting for spawns because they didn’t plan around the 20-30 minute intervals. Use the downtime efficiently.
3. Ignoring Server Hopping
Sticking to one server and waiting for spawns is incredibly inefficient. Learn to server hop effectively to maximize your farming efficiency.
4. Neglecting Equipment Preparation
Entering boss fights with inadequate equipment is a recipe for frustration. Always ensure you’re properly geared before attempting challenging content.
5. Going Solo When Grouping Would Help
While it’s possible to complete these quests solo, grouping with other players can significantly reduce completion time and difficulty.
Frequently Asked Questions
How long does it take to get both weapons?
Based on my experience, getting both weapons typically takes 3-6 hours total, depending on your skill level, equipment, and luck with boss spawns. Garp’s Melee takes longer due to the three-quest requirement, while the Takamura weapon can be obtained relatively quickly.
What’s the best level to attempt these quests?
I recommend being at least level 15,000 before attempting Garp’s quest line and level 10,000 for the Takamura weapon. However, being level 20,000+ will make the process much smoother and faster.
Can I get these weapons solo?
Yes, both weapons can be obtained solo, but it’s significantly more challenging and time-consuming. I highly recommend grouping with other players, especially for the boss fights.
Are these weapons worth the effort?
Absolutely! Both weapons are among the best in the game for their respective roles. Garp’s Melee excels at crowd control, while the Takamura weapon is fantastic for single-target damage. They’re both significant upgrades over most standard weapons.
Do I need to spend real money to get these weapons?
No, both weapons can be obtained entirely through gameplay without spending any real money. While some premium items might make the process easier, they’re not necessary.
What happens if I die during a boss fight?
If you die during a boss fight, you’ll respawn at the nearest safe zone. The boss will remain at its current health percentage, so you can return to continue the fight. However, if the boss despawns due to timer expiration, you’ll need to wait for the next spawn.
Can I trade these weapons with other players?
Currently, both Garp’s Melee and Takamura weapons are soulbound, meaning they cannot be traded with other players. This ensures that everyone must complete the quests to obtain them.
Are there any daily or weekly limits on obtaining these weapons?
There are no daily or weekly limits. You can attempt the quests and boss fights as many times as you want. However, you can only obtain each weapon once per character.
What’s the best time to play for less competition?
I’ve found that playing during early morning hours (2 AM – 6 AM server time) typically results in less competition for boss spawns and quest objectives. Weekdays are generally less crowded than weekends.
Do these weapons work well together?
While you can only equip one weapon at a time, having both weapons in your arsenal gives you flexibility for different situations. Use Garp’s Melee for crowd control scenarios and the Takamura weapon for single-target boss fights.
