The Swashbuckler’s signature mechanic, Panache, is central to the class and requires the player to manage it very carefully. Blue: Fantastic options, often essential.Red: Bad, useless options, or options whichĪre extremely situational.RPGBOT uses the color coding scheme which has become common among Pathfinder build handbooks. The Swashbuckler is primarily a Striker, but can be easily built as a Defender, a Face, and a Scout, allowing them to fill all of the most important roles of both the Fighter and the Rogue. Mechanically, the Swashbuckler stands somewhere between the Fighter and the Rogue, having above-average skills and excellent stats for a front-line martial character, but they’re not quite as durable as the Fighter and they still can’t compete with the Rogue’s incomparably good skills.
The Panache mechanic encourages you to do things other than hitting things, and the subclasses really encourage diverse tactics between swashbucklers.
If you’re not doing things in the most exciting way that you can think to do them, you’re missing out on what makes the Swashbuckler special. Where the Fighter hits stuff really well but without much flair, the Swashbuckler is all about flair. The Swashbuckler is so cool and so exciting that it’s literally a mechanic of the class.
