Sand is an Uncommon Elemental-type Blox Fruit that allows users to create, become, and manipulate sand. With its sandstorms, sand traps, and versatile attacks, Sand has established itself as a powerful choice for both PvP and grinding.
Priced at $420,000 or R$850 from the Blox Fruit Dealer, this fruit offers excellent value for its control capabilities.
Originally released in Update 4, Sand has undergone significant updates, including a complete rework of its model in Update 20. Its awakening transforms it from a decent grinding fruit into a PvP powerhouse.
Sand is classified as a Logia-type fruit, providing elemental intangibility against basic attacks from lower-level players or those without Haki. However, it has a unique disadvantage - Sand users take twice as much damage when immersed in sea water compared to other fruit users.

Final Awakening Step
Awakening the Sand fruit significantly enhances its combat capabilities for both PvE and PvP:
To awaken Sand, visit the Awakening Expert and complete a series of Raids to earn Fragments. Team up with other players for more efficient raid completion.
Start with X to stun the opponent, follow up with C for additional control, use V for high damage, and finish with Z. This combo maximizes crowd control while dealing significant damage.
For awakened Sand, use X for extended stun, V for massive damage, C for area control, and Z for finishing. The improved abilities allow for more devastating combinations.
Use X to stun the boss, follow with V for high damage, and use Z for additional damage. The stuns prevent the boss from attacking while you deal damage safely.
Awakened Sand is considered one of the best fruits for ground PvP due to its multiple stun abilities and combo potential. Its wide-reaching and reliable stuns make it particularly effective against various playstyles. The key to mastering Sand in PvP is timing your stuns to lock down opponents and create openings for devastating combos.
While Sand remains somewhat viable in aerial combat, it truly excels in ground-based engagements. Use your abilities to control the battlefield and force opponents into unfavorable positions.
Leverage your elemental immunity against players without Haki. Against NPCs, your immunity works unless they are higher level, making it excellent for grinding safely.
Sand is extremely powerful for PvP due to its multiple stun abilities. Use your stuns to control the battlefield and create openings. The X move (Desert Funeral) is particularly effective for initiating engagements.
Remember that Sand users take twice as much damage in water. Avoid water-based combat whenever possible, or use the F move (Sand Flight) to traverse water safely from above.
Focus on awakening at least one move first to unlock the "Desert Prince" title. Then prioritize the X and V moves for maximum stun and damage potential in PvP situations.
The Z and X moves' range increases depending on mastery. Focus on increasing your mastery to extend your effective combat range.
While Sand Flight is the slowest in the game, it's still useful for reaching high places and avoiding ground-based threats. Use it strategically for positioning rather than rapid mobility.
