My mate gave me his skald to take a look at. They're not so bad, but I also found he was having trouble hitting things in melee. Try sticking to long-range. Use a crossbow. Forget his armour; use mirror image and stoneskin in replacement, then you'll also have him freed up to cast spells. As the swashbuckler is a mixture between a fighter and a thief, think of the bard as a cross between a thief and a mage.
And finish Haer'Dalis' quest. You'll get the armour Yorick was talking about as well as the bard stronghold.
