A fighting style compliments your martial capabilities in combat. A champion gains a style at 1st level, and can also gain additional styles at 3rd, 7th, and 11th levels. A character of any class can gain one fighting style by taking the Stylist feat, or sometimes through class features. You can never gain the same style multiple times.
     Some styles have a prerequisite. You must meet the prerequisite criteria before you can take the style. If you lose the criteria you also lose the benefit of the style until you regain it. Each style is summarized below. Click a style's name for the full effect.
