    Default Re: looking for race+class help for swashbucker

    The best class advice I can give you is to not play a Swashbuckler past level 3.

    QFT'ed, brotha.

    Factotum does a tremendous job of representing a swashbuckler, and it has good synergy. If you go for it, though, DO go to swash 4 for the extra attack.

    A Daring Outlaw rogue is also good to continue in swash.

    Pixies are fun. Continuous greater invisibility makes everything better. And something like +8 Dex and +4 Wis, if I remember right.

    I'm curious. Do you only play races with level adjustment?

    I think it's because his DM gives free LA buy-off.

    Then grab an elf with the correct stat benefits and grab the Half-Celestial template (+4 LA).

    what book is pixie in?

    we already have the folowing
    Vroot
    Petal
    Half Dragon Goliath with biomancer alterlife enhancements due to cloning
    toric human/gold dragon
    Half Celestial human

    we like to keep the variety up and since the biomancer keeps altering people as they die the free buy off keeps going up for new chars

    since u dont sugest sticking with the swashbuckler what do you sugest for a fairly straight forward melee class that would not be found vanila this is for a first time player so i was trying to do a simple melee class that could still do some crazy stunts

    we already have
    main secondary
    Barbarian15(goliath) fighter2psychicwar2monk2tribalwar2NordicChampion7
    DragonShaman16(petal) monk2warlock14
    Paladin7(Toric) favordsoul7
    Warmage/factotum/incantrix/warwizzard/sorc/weaver/ardentdeliniate(vroot) this guy is our skill swiss army knife
    Healer16/cleric16 (half celestial)

    me personally I play Goliath almost every time I love the race and it always keeps the dialogue going with quick bets and keeping count of the bodies

    Githzerai with a +1 LA or +2 LA template would be my suggestion.

    Dark Githzerai or Half-Fey Githzerai. Actually, the latter sounds pretty awesome.

    Edit: I can't remember (since it's not in the SRD) if Githzerai (as a PC race) are in the MM1, or the Expanded Psionics Handbook. One of the two.

    Dark Creature is from Tome of Magic.

    Half-Fey Creature is from the Fiend Folio, I believe (but you can look it up on Crystal Keep).

    Half Fey Template is +2 dex, +2 wis, +4 cha, -2 con. (Fey type, low light vision, immunity to enchantment, a ton of SLAs including Charm Person at will, wings for flight at double your land speed with good maneuverability), for a measely +2 Level Adjustment.

    Now, assuming you're allowed to remove a whole lot of level adjustment, if you stick that onto another +1 or +2 level adjustment race, like catfolk, you end up with +6 dex, +2 wis, +6 cha, -2 con, with a flight speed of 80...for +3 LA....and a whole lot of spell like abilities.

    Of course, the sheer silliness of a half-fey catfolk would make me want to stab the character with a brick.
