I'm tinkering a little with a swashbuckler build (CW), wanting to play a piratey character in the next campaign (whenever it starts). I was thinking about adding a level or two of Dervish, both for flavour, cruchy syncronicity and fun.
build would be (reace, class and feats):
dex17, int 13
human: combat expertise
swshbckler 1:w.focus-scimitar, w.finesse(class ability?)
swshbcklr2:
swshbcklr3:dodge
ftr1:twf
ftr2:mobility
dervish1:ITWF
dervishx:
at lvl6: 2 attacks at -2 and 2 attacks at -7.
Yes it's a min/max build, though not an uber build by far. But i expect it'll be fun playing it with a lot of possibility for piratey goodness.
I have a few questions regarding dervish abilities though:
The dervish dance requires (and makes it possible) stepping 5' between each attack during a full attack routine. How many AoO does the dervish dance provoke, if say you had four attacks w. two scimitars (ITWF...)at lvl.6 as the build above, circling an oponent during the dervish dance. Three? two? is the first 5' step free?
The dervish movement mastery ability makes it possible to take 10 on tumble checks under stress. Does this include combat? How far can he move if he had 30 base move? 15'/three 5' steps? dc would be dc15 first step, dc17 step two and dc19 step 3?
