What is the best Swashbuckling Style?

There are three and within several skills, I wonder which one is "the best" and which skills are better within each.

I have no idea, ive only ever tried fencing

As every question involving a: "What is the best..." I can only answer:

Depends on your personal choice.

Some say Florentine because of it's great defensive abilities....

Me no likes Florentine as a Naval Officer - my Privateer has it

Fencing OWNS :p

Dirty Fighting ftw!?!?! Why? 'cause it's the coolest. Fencing is just pompous, and florentine is for girls! As soon as i saw my first fencing graphic, i grabbed a respec card and ate it. Needed gravy.

Dirty fighting is the best purely because everyone says it sucks i think. Besides, tanth acts about 90% Pirate, so it's only fitting really.

On a serious note though, for boarding combat, i'd say dirty fighting everytime, if you use:

Terrifying shot, and the other 2 mezzes that i forget the name of, and his garuanteed Bleed normal attack.
Dive onto a ship, mezz 3, and then just cycle targets bleeding everyone. In PvP Boarding, dirty fighting is like the shock+awe tactics. Balls to all this running around the ship, get my NPC's to fight his NPC's, i slice and dice whoever's nearest. In the end there's just Mr. Florentine left, crying in the corner as 6 grinning marines run at him.

Boarding combat is best done the same way you kill a circus: Go for the juggler. (read: Jugular, for those who don't get it)

For dueling? any but Dirty fighting, no doubt =)

99% personal preference really, same as with "what's the best ship"

Yup Dirty Fighting got a bad rep for some reason, im a Dirty Fighter and loving it, in avatar missions, when three run at you, blam terryfying shot one dosnt move for 15 secs, Flash powder another dont move for thirty secs and then you kill them one at a time.
In bording combat, with a well placed grenade you put a whole enemy attack down to 10 hps and then you just clean up, its a cool fighting style that takes a damn long time to master, i began to kick ass at 25, before that i sucked
