Fuse Styles feat

[thecrimsondawn]

Fuse Styles (Combat, Style)

You are capable of mingling mundane and martial combat styles.

Prerequisite(s): One style feat, one stance known.

Benefit(s): You can enter a fighting style and a martial stance with the same swift action.

By this wording, can I be in a stance and a style at the same time normally? Its looking like I can just do it faster with this feat - thus making it useless since I start combat in my combat forms as I only plan on grabbing one style feat.

Yeah, they're two different effects so you can combine them without this feat and the normal stacking rules apply. (i.e. as long as they don't have the same name or provide the same type of typed bonus with some exceptions, they stack with one another.)

A better option than this feat might be Combat Style Master, which lets you start combat with a style active and change styles as a free action. That way you don't need any actions at all to start or switch styles, and can use your swifts exclusively for PoW stuff or items instead.
