Grand Blue Stats Guide: All Six Stats & Best Builds

Overview

Level-ups in Grand Blue grant stat points across six attributes, and milestone levels (level 5, 10, and beyond) apply an across-the-board bump on top. The trap is that the game never tells you which stat powers which damage source — players found out the hard way that a fruit user pumping Strength is functionally playing without a build.

Verified by Daniel Brooks on August 31, 2026 at 17:30 UTC: I compiled the six-stat list from a recorded full walkthrough of the in-game stat menu (August 30, 2026) and cross-checked scaling claims against two additional playthroughs, including one where the player explicitly identifies Energy as the fruit-scaling stat after reaching the third island. Menu-visible descriptions are stated plainly; anything inferred from gameplay is marked as reported, with the breakdown in Notes.

The Six Stats

Build Directions

• Fruit build: primary Energy, secondary Health or Agility. Fruit skills are your damage, and Energy is the reported scaling stat — one third-island player described re-speccing into Energy specifically after noticing the difference. Fruit options and mastery rules are on the Cursed Fruits page.
• Melee build (fist/sword): primary Strength, secondary Agility for dashes. Fighting-style training (Brawler or Swordsman in Anchor Town) layers skill damage on top of your M1 scaling.
• Gun build: primary Precision — flintlocks and cannons both feed off it. A sniper trainer exists on the third island for players committed to this path.
• Hybrid companion build: if you are raising a companion, its stats level separately, so you can afford a selfish personal build while it covers your weak side.

Haki Status in Early Access

Everyone searching "how to get Haki in Grand Blue" hits the same wall: Haki is not obtainable in the current build. The evidence trail looks like this:

• The Willpower stat description explicitly references Haki strength and reserves — the system is designed but not switched on.
• Creator walkthroughs asked about Haki directly and had no unlock path to show as of August 30, 2026.

Practical advice: do not dump points into Willpower today expecting a payoff. If and when Haki ships, this page will be updated with the unlock method — and unspent points are cheaper than regret.

Notes

• Menu-confirmed: the six stats and their text descriptions (from a recorded stat-menu walkthrough).
• Player-reported: Energy as the fruit-scaling stat (one source, consistent with how the stat is positioned); milestone-level across-the-board stat bumps (seen at levels 5 and 10 in a recorded session).
• Not yet verified: exact scaling ratios per stat. Treat build directions as directional, not mathematical.

FAQ

What are the stats in Grand Blue?

Six: Strength (melee), Willpower (Haki and status protection), Agility (speed and dashes), Precision (guns), Energy (stamina, reportedly fruit scaling), and Health.

What is the best stat build in Grand Blue?

Match stat to damage source: Energy for fruit builds, Strength for melee, Precision for guns, with Agility as the common secondary for mobility.

How do I get Haki in Grand Blue?

You cannot yet — no Haki ability is unlockable in the Early Access build as of August 31, 2026. Willpower already references it, so expect a future update.

Do Cursed Fruit skills scale with a stat?

Players report they scale off Energy, making it the primary stat for fruit-focused builds.

What does Willpower do?

It strengthens Haki, increases the Haki reserve, and protects against negative status effects — but with Haki not yet obtainable, its practical value today is limited.
