Giant's Hearts are one of the many different types of horizontal progression in Lost Ark. So, for those who are beginning to tire of the pay-to-win aspects of the game or all their failed honing attempts, focusing on Giant's Hearts for a while might be for the best. It's not like this is a fruitless endeavor either, as the rewards for these objects are pretty stellar overall; from Skill Point Potions to a Totoiki Transformation.

That said, they're not exactly a Collectable that players will be seeing constantly like Mokoko Seeds or Masterpieces, rather, there are only 15 of them in the game, and collecting even one requires a fair amount of work. This guide should help though, as it covers how exactly players are supposed to find all of the Giant's Hearts in Lost Ark.

The most realistic order in which these apparently lore-important Giant's Hearts should be collected doesn't necessarily match up with each heart's in-game number. The order does matter though, as even three extra Skill Points can make a huge difference for all forms of Lost Ark's content, from PvP to Abyssal Dungeons, and even Guardian Raids. So, getting to at least four collected is a big bonus. With that in mind, here's the best order for the types of Giant's Hearts to nab, listed from what to grab first to what to grab last:

  1. The 1st Giant's Heart: The "Five Scattered Brothers" quest line is one that shouldn't be skipped and is available right after completing Tortoyk's main story (thankfully one of the shorter region quest lines).
  2. The 10th Giant's Heart: It has a low Item Level requirement for getting to the 35th Floor of only 480.
  3. The 14th Giant's Heart: For the exact same reason as the 10th.
  4. The 5th Giant's Heart: There are a lot of Island Quests that give one-time Sea Coin chests to easily make it to 3,300 Gienah's Coins.
  5. The 8th Giant's Heart: For the same reason as the 5th.
  6. The 6th Giant's Heart: There are a lot of one-time Pirate Coin Island Quest rewards, but 33,000 is still quite a bit.
  7. The 4th Giant's Heart: Tarsilla isn't a difficult Field Boss, and all it takes is some time management.
  8. The 9th Giant's Heart: Calvasus has the lowest Rapport Point requirement out of the Rapport-related Hearts.
  9. The 2nd Giant's Heart: Simply because Beatrice only has to get to Friendly 1 instead of Trusted, putting her at the second-lowest Rapport requirements.
  10. The 11th Giant's Heart: Simple quest on a simplistic Island that requires 15 days of completing the "Ruffians In The Ground" Una's Task.
  11. The 12th Giant's Heart: Has a bit more involved in the pre-requisites, but is about as easy to complete as the 11th Heart.
  12. The 3rd Giant's Heart: Is an absurd amount of Rapport Investment, but Sasha's Rapport Quests and Dialogue options give a fair amount.
  13. The 14th Giant Heart: Nineveh's Quests and prerequisites are more demanding, but the difference in Rapport needed is only about 1,000 points.
  14. The 7th Giant's Heart: Sort of misleading, as this is the one that players should start on the earliest since it requires 30 days of investment.
  15. The 15th Giant's Heart: This last one is simple, it requires the reward from collecting 14 Giant's Hearts in order to even be completable.
