How to Level Up Characters

In One Piece: Pirate Warriors 4 leveling up your characters is done via the Growth Maps of which there are two, character-specific and general. Check out our How to Level Up Characters guide to find out how you can strengthen your characters.

Character Specific Map

Using the character specific Growth Map you can level up attributes of your character to raise their Power, Defense, Health, and Stamina stats. It is recommended that you do so before you start a new stage as One Piece: Pirate Warriors 4 gets more difficult the further you progress. As you increase your characters stats in the various categories your character will learn more actions through the growth markers and can gain new special moves through spending a certain amount of coins and berries.

General Map

In One Piece: Pirate Warriors there is a second map that affects all the characters, this general map unlocks when you get a character’s crew level up to Level 4 by using them in stages and defeating enemies with special moves. At certain points in the story you will notice some question marks on the map, these become unlocked after you clear these parts of the story.
