Hi Folks,
I'm considering rolling a Tabaxi Swashbuckler / Hexblade PC. I'm pretty set on the Tabaxi/Swashbuckler and Warlock part (hexblade is in the air still). Our DM gives us a 15 and 16 and then we roll the rest of the stats (4d6). I was fortunate to roll an 18 for one of the stats, 13, 11 and a 10. So stats are 18, 16, 15, 13, 11 and 10. I'm kind of playing the mobility aspect of the Tabaxi Swashbuckler and also the 'luck' type of notion for a cat. Obviously the feat "Lucky" but also the Warlock (especially Hexblade) has some 'luck' type things like Hexblade Curse/Hex and then some spells (like mind sliver). I was thinking starting as Rogue and then at level 2 take Hexblade, then 3 straight in Rogue. For cantrip, Booming Blade would be a nice pick I would think at 2nd level along with Minor Illusion - I don't really see this guy using Eldritch Blast. I would take Armor of Agathys and Hex (getting Shield/Wrathful Smite as a Hexblade). I was looking to keeping them fairly close (no real 'dip') - maybe 12 Swash/8 Warlock.
I was wondering if anyone has any advice - especially on the Warlock side as I haven't played this class but looks to be a fun class to couple with Swashbuckler. The campaign will probably go to around 12th or so but may continue after. Any input / thoughts would be greatly appreciated! Thanks.
