The Duelist
I'm looking to get a few ideas and opinions on this concept. For in depth detail on the archetype I am referring to see the Duelist and Fencer links in my sig.
In brief, the "Duelist" concept is the classic light or no armored swashbuckling, fencer, musketeer, Inigo Montoya, Errol Flynn archetype. Currently in 5E thematically and mechanically is a mix of Fighter, Rogue and Monk/Barbarian (unarmored defense, special movement). However, as of yet, I have not been able to narrow it down to a single subclass of any one of those classes. To boot it has various "archetypes" or paths the concept could follow.
Thus my first question is should this be a new alternate "Light Fighter" class? Or should it be a series of "subclasses" attempting to fit the concept to multiple classes? Or dies this really fit under the Battle Master and just needs a Feat that gives the fighter "Unarmored Defense"?
Thoughts?
