In the kit description for the swashbuckler, it said:

Swashbuckler
This rogue is part acrobat, part swordsman, and part wit: the epitome of charm and grace.

Advantages:
Bonus +1 to AC.
Another +1 to AC for every 5 levels.
+1 to hit and damage every 5 levels.
May specialize in any weapon that a thief can use
May place three stars in two-weapon fighting style proficiency

Disadvantages:
No backstab multiplier.

Class: thief
starting: 161,000 lvl 8
Max: 2,950,000 XP lvl 23
so, there should be like -3 ac, and +3 and +3 damage & hit. I cheated, just to see if it worked, i added like 9000000000000000 exp, and reached max lvl 23.
i only got one ac bonus and didnt see any hit and damage bonus.

HELP!

/me shakes head

Perchance you should try levelling up normally... I assure you, they do get their bonuses.

Ah, now i understand it a bit better and can npw see where the prob. is.
It doesnt count from lvl 8, it counts from lvl 0. ->5 ->10 ->15 (everything is still correct and so) but when it hits lvl 20, nothing happens! did your swashbuckler get a base ac of 1 @ lvl 20? soa only, latest patch installed, etc. (not the fixpack thou)

A Swashbuckler will have an AC bonus of 1 at level 1

Level 05: -2 AC
Level 10: -3 AC
Level 15: -4 AC
Level 20: -5 AC

Assuming you wear nothing, your base AC will be 10.

With kit bonuses, 5 AC

With 18 DEX, 1 AC

My Swashbuckler was rather potent as he reached the higher levels and wore better equipment.

Just created a level 21 Swashbuckler. Her AC was 1. Baldurdash did not mention it, so I doubt installing it will help, but for the heck of it, go ahead and get it.

That's half-correct.

The AC bonus is indeed "initialized" at level 1.
However, the next bonus will be at level 6, as in, once every 5 levels.

So the AC/THAC0/Damage modifiers of the Swashbuckler starts from level 1, and, *gasp*, just like the manual claims, grows by 1 for every 5 levels:
1,6,11,16,21,...

He gets AC 2 at level 15 though. One way or another, he is having a bug.

Too tired now to try and create a level 19 Swashbuckler to level up to level 20.

oh, im getting so frustrated. I WILL not play this char if this bug will stay in the game. baldurash's fixpack did not solve this. I dont think re-installing the game will solve anything...

i dont got tob installed, could installing it solve this?And i checked if it was just somekind of error with the display of my ac, but they are still getting a hit on a roll of 12, not 13 as it should be (right?)

what can i do?
