[QUOTE="FentonGib, post: 4488903, member: 77527"] Guillaume my Ravenloft player has now updated his sheet to your Swashbuckler conversion and he's happy as bunnies with it. He feels it's on par with the official core classes and really liked the fact that he lost some features he wasn't keen on (like the dodge+1) but can pick feats and talents that focus on acrobatics (he loves the idea of the Errol Flyn type of prancing Swashbuckler). He (like me) thought it was perfect that you swapped the Fort save for Reflex. He was always looking forward to level 7 to multiclass to Duelist, and for the first time he's now actually wanting to stick single-class because of the focus on concept. It's also making me seriously contemplate changing an NPC Duelist (his mentor) to just swashbuckler. The ONLY personal conversion I did was remove Survival from the list of class skills, since to me Survival is the purview of wilderness experts and trackers, neither of which fits the Swashbuckler. Especially since Pathfinder (beta) allows you to buy cross-class skills at normal cost, meaning a player who wants a more survival-savvy character can just buy it. The Ravenloft feat "Dabbler" which allows them to get a cross-class skill and make it class-skill is a good accompanyment now to max out points. Thanx for that. Will let you know how it plays out in game. [/QUOTE]
