Shattered Kingdoms

Swashbucklers used to get whip. As a matter of fact the diamond whip from the old seaside was awesome in their hands (this was before sub types)

Remove shield block from barbs, see where that goes =P, could probably also remove enhanced parry from mercenaries.

Delf swashies can hit 25 str under certain circumstances dictated by them being in a certain one of the 4 or so groups available to them.

Why are we bringing cabals, and tribunals into the equation? This is a discussion about swashbucklers, not cabal abilities. If you require cabal abilities for your character to be playable, then the character is just a straight up failure to begin with, and has no merits of his own.

rofl, delf swashie is a ridiculous combo, and anybody who rolls one clearly has no intention of actually participating in PvP

elf at least gets 24 cha, and the chance to join the Hammar

Deep-elf swashbuckler is great, especially for the higher int that you'll end up with.

It's not in yet.

Okay good. I'd have roffled if it was. Anyway, since that fly change isn't in yet, I think we all need to chill out on the subject of swashbucklers.

I use dirt kick all the time

The lag on taunt should be reduced slightly. That would be a start.
