Fighting styles are your primary damage source when your fruit is on cooldown. This guide ranks every fighting style by performance in PvP, grinding, and boss fights, with recommended fruit combos.

Electric Claw is the best for grinding. It has fast attacks, good AOE, and works perfectly with Buddha fruit. If you don't have access to Second Sea yet, use Water Kung Fu.
Godhuman is the undisputed king of PvP. Its moves have incredible damage, stun-lock potential, and combo extension capabilities. Pair it with Kitsune or Dough fruit for the most powerful combos in the game.
Dragon Talon has the highest DPS against single targets. Use it with Magma or Buddha to melt bosses quickly.
Most styles require defeating specific NPCs, completing quests, or reaching certain levels. Check the style teacher's location in each sea for upgrade requirements.
