DM is considering reworking the campaign to more of an aquatic/seafaring bent. Our current party consists of a warlock, a mountless paladin, a crossbow fighter, a psion/pyrokineticist, and me, the bronze dragon shaman. We are (mostly) level 4. If the campaign change goes through by party vote, the DM is letting us rework/reroll characters.
Now, I love my character deeply. She is a lot of fun and would be awesome in an aquatic campaign. However, I've had a character concept waiting for a campaign for it to shine in for some time. Which do you think makes a better seafaring support, a tanky dragon shaman geared towards healing, or a bard/swashbuckler/honorable dread pirate with decent cha int and dex (in that order)?
The pirate loses out on healing capabilities but can cover our lacking trapfinding abilities with a rogue dip and can fill in fairly well as a skill monkey.
The shaman will eventually grant allies waterbreathing for free, has decent healing that gets better with vitality, but few skills and took heavy armor proficiency so she's walking around in full plate.
