Swashbuckler 1/ Cleric 6 wouldn't be that terrible. You'd get all the relevant abilities you need with just a one level dip.

Very very random (And probably very very bad) idea popped into my head randomly.. Halfling Cleric/Swasbuckler of Desna.. Mostly cleric with a few levels of Swashbuckler..

Not to sidetrack you with new ideas, but as it just came up in another thread...

Virtuous Bravo archetype for Paladin is pretty cool if the flavor you want is a holy swashbuckler with some healing ability--they keep their lay on hands and channels I believe.

As said above, your party has a lot of melee already, but you need to like your character concept to have fun, so that comes first IMO.

If it were me I'd have the most fun with the evangelist though--watching the melee guys demolish everything while I perform an oration on the error of the enemy's ways.

Second the motion on the virtuous bravo. That archetype is what you are looking for--specifically with the opportune parry and riposte deed if that wasn't clear--though you don't get that until level 4. Until then you could just try readying an action to attack someone who takes a swing at you.

I feel like people are going to tell you to try a kitsune sorcerer with the fey bloodline. I will say that my spirit walker mesmerist is a lot of fun--able to make a ghoul laugh with hideous laughter--able to force humanoids to save to successfully die (see continued animation). I even made an ooze laugh once--it laughed like a bowl full of jelly. I've run for a dream weaver before and the flavor is very very cool, but with a 15 as your highest stat pre racials, the kitsune's boost to charisma AND enchantments might be a life saver If you go sorcerer or mesmerist.

Actually retraining is allowed in Core according to this blog post.

You just can only retrain into core options.

Good call, thanks.

Yes it's a PFS term, but the question is do the people who sit at the other end of the office from the guys who write Paizo rules think that druids could get natural spell as their level 3 feat, the rest was just for context.

So apparently the level 4 PFS pregen druid (Lini) has Natural Spell. I have been given to understand that the earliest you can get natural spell without retraining is 5th level. I suppose the pregen could have retrained at some point, but I think those pregens were written before Ultimate Campaign created retraining rules. I'd chalk it up to designer error, but its kinda lame that the level 4 pregen at the table can have a feat that the level 4 core druid at the same table can't. Any elucidating thoughts and/or things to tell an unhappy player?
