Farming Santa in Grand Piece Online can feel impossible if you don’t have the rare Mega Pow item. Many players think they need to trade valuable fruits or spend hours grinding for this expensive gear just to get decent presents during the Christmas event. But the truth is, you can farm over 1,000 presents per hour without Mega Pow at all. This guide shows you the proven Cyborg-based method that works even better for solo players, using easy-to-get requirements and simple steps that anyone can follow.
Key Takeaways:
- Best Race: Fully upgraded Cyborg is required for this method to work
- Optional Fruit: Pika V1 helps trigger sleep faster, but you can skip it
- Optimal Stats: 491 Devil Fruit points (if using Pika V1) or all points in Fighting Style
- Core Ability: Missile Shower (Cyborg skill) farms presents while Santa sleeps
- Farm Rate: 1,000-2,000 presents per hour solo, even more with friends
- Location: Christmas island appears in First Sea or Second Sea near Skypiea
- Key Tip: Stay slightly below Santa when using Missile Shower to avoid knockback
What Do You Need Before Farming Santa in GPO?
Before you start farming, you must have the right setup. Without these requirements, you will not get good results.
Race: Cyborg (Fully Upgraded)
You need the Cyborg race at max level or close to it. This is not optional. The Missile Shower ability that makes this method work is exclusive to Cyborg. If your Cyborg is not fully upgraded, you can still try the method, but it will be less effective.
Devil Fruit: Pika V1 (Optional but Helpful)
Pika V1 makes Santa fall asleep much faster, but you can farm without it. Pika V2 does not work well for this method because its moves are different. If you do not have Pika V1, just put all your stat points into Fighting Style and use Cyborg attacks only.
Stats Setup Explained
- If you use Pika V1: Put around 491 points into Devil Fruit and the rest into Fighting Style
If you do not use Pika V1: Put every single point into Fighting Style
- This build focuses on dealing fast damage to trigger Santa’s sleep mechanic as quickly as possible. The sleep mechanic is a special feature where Santa stops moving and starts dropping presents when you deal enough damage.

Where Can You Find Santa in Grand Piece Online?
Santa spawns on a special Christmas island that appears during the holiday event. This island location changes between the First Sea and Second Sea.
Steps to Find Santa:
- Travel to either First Sea or Second Sea
- Look for a small island with Christmas decorations
- Use a Log Pose to help locate islands, or simply look up at the sky
- Spot Santa flying around above the island
The Christmas island is a repurposed version of Skypiea with holiday decorations. You will see presents, snow, and festive lights everywhere. Once you see Santa flying in circles, you are ready to start farming.
Event Duration: The Christmas event typically runs from late November to early January. Check the official Grand Piece Online events page for exact dates each year.

How Do You Make Santa Fall Asleep Fast?
The key to this entire method is forcing Santa into his sleep state using damage. When Santa sleeps, he drops presents rapidly. Here is how to trigger it quickly.
Step-by-Step Sleep Process:
- Walk or fly up close to Santa until you are touching him
- If you have Pika V1, use the Jewels of Light move repeatedly
- Mix in Cyborg basic attacks if Santa is not falling asleep fast enough
- Keep attacking without stopping – the more damage you deal, the faster he sleeps
Jewels of Light is the best move because it hits many times quickly. But if you do not have Pika V1, just spam Cyborg’s basic attacks. The sleep mechanic activates after you deal a certain amount of damage, so never stop attacking until you see Santa’s eyes close and he stops moving.
Important Note: Santa can wake up if you stop attacking. Keep your damage going constantly during the setup phase.
What Is the Core No-Mega-Pow Farming Method?
Once Santa falls asleep, the real farming begins. This is where you will get hundreds of presents quickly.
The Farming Loop:
- Switch to Cyborg race immediately when Santa sleeps
- Use Missile Shower directly on Santa’s body
- Presents drop rapidly in a circle around you
- Stay close and spam the open button to collect them
Missile Shower is a Cyborg ability that launches many missiles at once. When Santa is asleep, each missile makes him drop 2-3 presents. Since Missile Shower lasts a long time, you can collect 50-100 presents per sleep cycle.
Solo vs Group Farming
- Solo: You get all presents to yourself, easily 1,000+ per hour
- Group: More players using Missile Shower means even faster farming, but you share the presents
This method works extremely well for solo players because you do not need to coordinate with anyone. You control the entire process from start to finish.

How Can You Maximize Presents Per Hour?
These pro tips will help you reach 2,000 presents per hour or more.
Positioning Secrets:
- Stay slightly below Santa when using Missile Shower. This prevents his knockback from pushing you away.
- Stand in the center of the present drop circle so you collect faster
- Move in small circles while collecting to grab presents more efficiently
Timing Tricks:
- If Jewels of Light is on cooldown, use Cyborg’s basic attacks to keep damage going
- Missile Shower lasts about 8-10 seconds – start collecting presents immediately
- Do not wait for perfect timing. As long as Santa is asleep, the method works
Common Mistakes to Avoid:
- Do not use Pika V2 – its moves do not trigger sleep as well
- Do not stop attacking before Santa sleeps completely
- Do not stand directly above Santa (you will get knocked away)
- Do not forget to switch to Cyborg after sleep triggers
Many players report getting 1,680 to over 2,000 presents in one hour using this strategy consistently.
Why Is This Method Better Than Using Mega Pow?
Mega Pow is a rare item that many players think is required for good Santa farming. But this method is actually superior in several ways.
Advantages Over Mega Pow:
- No expensive trades: You do not need to overpay or trade valuable fruits for Mega Pow
- Easy setup: Cyborg race is easier to get than Mega Pow
- Solo friendly: Works perfectly alone, while Mega Pow often needs a group
- Higher present rate: Many players get more presents with this method
- Accessible: All requirements can be obtained through normal gameplay
Mega Pow can be fun to use, but it is not necessary for efficient farming. The sleep mechanic with Cyborg and Pika V1 is currently one of the strongest Santa farming methods available in Grand Piece Online, even for players with no rare items.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can You Farm Santa Without Any Devil Fruit?
Yes, absolutely. The method works with just Cyborg race and Fighting Style stats. The Pika V1 Devil Fruit only makes Santa fall asleep faster. If you do not have any fruit, simply put all your stat points into Fighting Style and use Cyborg’s basic attacks to trigger the sleep mechanic. It will take slightly longer to make Santa sleep, but the Missile Shower farming works exactly the same.
Without a fruit, expect to spend 30-60 extra seconds making Santa sleep, but you will still get the same 1,000+ presents per hour once the farming starts. Many players successfully use this method fruitless and still get amazing results.
How Many Presents Can You Get Per Hour Without Mega Pow?
Most players report 1,200 to 2,000 presents per hour using the Cyborg method. Your exact rate depends on:
- How fast you trigger the sleep mechanic
- Whether you farm solo or with friends
- How efficiently you collect the dropped presents
- Your ping and reaction time
Solo players easily get 1,200-1,500 presents per hour. With a group of 3-4 players all using Missile Shower, rates can exceed 2,500 presents per hour because you trigger sleep faster and have more missiles hitting Santa simultaneously.

What If Santa Doesn’t Fall Asleep?
If Santa is not falling asleep after 1-2 minutes of attacking, check these common issues:
Stat Problems:
- You might not have enough Devil Fruit or Fighting Style points
- Your Cyborg race might not be fully upgraded
- Try adding more points to your damage stats
Technique Issues:
- You need to be touching Santa or extremely close
- Your attacks might be missing – watch for damage numbers
- Some Devil Fruits (like Pika V2) do not work well for this method
Server Lag:
- On busy servers, the sleep mechanic can be delayed
- Try switching to a less crowded private server
If problems continue, reset your character and try again. Sometimes the game needs a fresh start to recognize the damage properly.
Is Cyborg Race Required for This Method?
Yes, Cyborg race is absolutely required. The entire method depends on the Missile Shower ability, which only Cyborg race has. No other race can use Missile Shower, and no other ability farms presents as efficiently while Santa sleeps.
If you do not have Cyborg yet, you can reroll your race at the in-game store. The race is not super rare, so you should get it within 10-20 rerolls for most players. Once you obtain Cyborg, make sure to fully upgrade it by completing the race’s progression tasks until you unlock Missile Shower.
When Does the GPO Christmas Event End?
Based on previous years and the current 2025 event data, the Christmas event typically runs from late November to early January. The 2024-2025 event started around November 22nd and is expected to end on January 8th.
Important Dates:
- Start: Usually the week before Thanksgiving
- End: First or second week of January
- Peak Time: December 20th – January 5th when most players are active
Always check the official Grand Piece Online social media or the in-game event board for exact dates. The event ends at a major update, not a minor patch, so you usually have plenty of warning.
Can You Use Other Devil Fruits Besides Pika V1?
While Pika V1 is the best choice, other fruits can work with adjusted strategies:
Good Alternatives:
- Magma: Deals good damage over time to trigger sleep
- Flame: Fast attacks work similarly to Pika V1
- Light: Quick damage but less effective than Pika V1
Fruits to Avoid:
- Pika V2: The moveset is different and much less effective
- Zoan fruits: Transformation can make positioning harder
- Slow-attack fruits: Take too long to trigger sleep
If you have a fruit that deals fast, consistent damage, try it. The key is hitting Santa many times quickly, not necessarily dealing huge damage per hit.
Does Group Farming Give More Presents?
Yes, group farming increases your presents per hour significantly. Here is why:
Benefits of Group Farming:
- Multiple players can trigger sleep faster with combined damage
- More Missile Showers hitting Santa simultaneously = more presents per second
- Friends can cover different positions to collect presents faster
- You can take turns setting up the sleep mechanic while others rest
Best Group Setup:
- 3-4 players all using Cyborg with Missile Shower
- At least one player with Pika V1 for fast sleep triggering
- Spread out around Santa to collect presents from all angles
However, you will share the presents that drop. In a group of 4, each person might get 800-1,000 presents per hour instead of 2,000 solo. But the setup is easier and more consistent, making it better for casual farming sessions.

Final Thoughts on GPO Santa Farming
Farming Santa in Grand Piece Online without Mega Pow is not just possible – it is actually one of the best methods available in 2026. The Cyborg race and Pika V1 combination creates a simple, repeatable process that any player can master within a few tries. You do not need rare items, expensive trades, or a large group to succeed.
The key is understanding the sleep mechanic and positioning yourself correctly during the Missile Shower phase. Once you get the timing down, you will easily collect 1,000-2,000 presents per hour, letting you buy all the holiday event rewards before the event ends in early January.
Remember to check for active GPO codes before farming to get bonus drop rates or experience boosts. These small bonuses add up over hours of farming and can make your sessions even more profitable.
