Expert Swordman in King Legacy

Expert Swordman is the Saber target at Stone Arena in the First Sea. Players also use the name Shanks for this encounter, but Expert Swordman is the wiki entry used for the route and reward data here. Use the location and named boss together when comparing guides, because a sword nickname alone can lead to a different encounter.

The community wiki lists level 3000 for this boss. Being in the First Sea therefore does not make him a beginner quest target. Treat the island as the destination and the listed level as a separate preparation check. If you are still following early island quests, continue that progression before making a long session around this fight.

The same source gives a one-hour spawn interval and a twenty-minute despawn window. These are different parts of the encounter: the interval describes when another appearance is expected, while the window describes how long an appearance remains available. Neither number is a countdown from the moment you join a server. Record the appearance you actually find before planning another visit.

Saber is listed at a fifteen percent drop chance, alongside Beli and experience rewards. The percentage does not guarantee a sword after a particular number of defeats. For a collection route, check your inventory between attempts and keep the boss’s exact name in any farming notes. For progression, compare the benefit of Saber with your current weapon before spending the entire session waiting at the arena. This is a targeted weapon hunt rather than a substitute for the island quest chain. The source also lists 440,000 HP; that figure describes the documented encounter and should not be used as a universal damage benchmark for other First Sea bosses.
