Any way we can get another option that grants panache or swashbuckler options?

So far I'm loving the concept of the vigilante but I gotta say I'm a little disappointed we don't have a swashbuckler like option. Any way we can get something that grants us panache and other swashbuckler like abilities so we can build something like Zorro or the Scarlet Pimpernel? Or even as some options in one of the other builds like say the Avenger?

Amateur Swashbuckler. Other than that, it is a dip into another class or an archetype.


Personally I am advocating this as a fix for the Melee side of things. People keep saying that they should nerf down the Warlock side of things because the martial side of things are kinda weak, well I say buff up the martials with a Grit mechanic.

With you. I really dig what the warlock gets in particular as they feel like strong choices AND fun to play with things like mystic bolt and the elemental shroud giving me cool things to play with that might even convince me to skip a spell list buff to grab. Meanwhile the martial options are really cool but need a bit more to make them more diverse especially the avenger which has some cool stuff but most seems to ape the brawler or fighter side of things. Now don't get me wrong those are cool but I'd love to be able to go Zorro with this build or masked gunman. Maybe even give us some new options we didn't have before like ranged maneuvers with the stalker or something to go with it.

Also for the love of god some interesting stuff with non bow ranged weapons. Seriously the Vigilante screams exotic weapons and esoteric training, I'd love to see some options for the stalker that make say the hand crossbow terrifying.

Wait, people want Warlock nerfed? That's stupid. Warlock is the only specialization that's actually good at the moment.

Eh, it's ok. You have to choose between spells and talents, if you get spells, your spells per day are almost as bad as a bloodrager, and the really cool power of mystic bolts is not as good as it appears due to dev fiat stopping most feats from working with it.
