I am just wondering the pro's & con's of Swashbuckler's???

And the best proficiencies and the best item's?

Aren't those listed in character generation period?

Yea there in character generation, but I just wanted to now from someone that played the game with a swashbuckler what the best item's are and stuff like that.

Are you playing with a party, or are you soloing?

I was thinking a party with Swashbuckler a wild mage and a cleric.

If you are creating the cleric, I recommmend the Priest of Talos. Its one of my favorite classes: massive lightning bolt damage at high levels, and very easy elemental immunity.
