I made a fighter/swashbuckler build based around wonky tactical decisions like intentionally provoking enemy AoO's so I can parry them and retaliate and so on. The high (relatively) charisma requiered for such a build is good synergy with the various combat intimidation feats. So I thought I'd take Cornugon Smash and Hurtful at level 6.
The problem is that the Riposte from the deed and the hurtful feat have mutually exclusive action economy. (Immediate and swift actions)
I was wondering if there was any way to set the action economy straight or somehow get two swift actions a round? If not, would there be any other decent alternatives for a charismatic two-handed build?
You're right that they don't work well together as they both use the same action
The point is that a immidiate action use the swift action for your *next* turn.
So its a every other turn scenario where you can use your swift action to set up during your own turn, then when its not your turn you burn your immidate and you are without a swift when its your turn again.
