I created a fae swashy, and WOW I really love it. I can sneak around and use sneak attacks, back attacks. I killed a yellow with only a few hits. (ok, ok, i know... im still only level 5 and it will probably get a butload harder lol) Just wanted to share my enthusiasm. Any tips from elder swashys for when I get higher level?
I've played a lot of different classes and so far my highest level char is my 33 swashie. he's a lot of fun.

The easter bonnet that female swashies get as a class hat instead of the swashy hat? that said, my swashy is my favorite
Plus I like being able to use 1 sword and no offhand sword and still do uber dps. Mmmm completes swashiness for me.
Actually, it won't get a buttload harder. IMHO, my Swashie (level 62) is almost retardedly easy to play, solo or group. I love my Swashie. What's NOT to love???
I made a fae swashy too! Loving her, the dps is fantastic and I can solo quite well. I usually only get hit once or twice before the mob is dead at my feet:smileyvery-happy:
I have a halfling Swashy, and I love it. Little guy can do some massive damage. The funny part is that I originally created him because a guild leader asked me to for raiding purposes. I didn't think I was going to like it, but I love him! lol
Far and away Swashy is my fav class to play.Very versatile, and deadly. While I'm only 5 times your stated level at 25, I've found that what I could do at 5, or 15, I can still do at 25 (although I will admit, having most of my current CAs at Master level really helps a bunch...)

I created a new fae swashy as well. I'm really enjoying him. I stopped playing my ranger back at LU19 - switched to my Fury then. Now, I'm not side-lining my Fury - he's finally closing in on T7. But I have a feeling that my fae will be my favorite alt - for the swashy portion, and for the EoF portion (love that). Very glad I chose swash for my fae...
Most balanced? eh? Swashys are the best scout in game right now... easily one of the top 3 classes in game. Im suprised more people dont roll them. When I ask people who box, what do they use for a tank, they say "Swashy" Why? Because its DPS, its super easy to play (easy to box), they tank AND they are good in all positions in the game (solo/group/raid/duo/trio/mini raid/mentoring/harvesting/quests etc etc etc). I think ill roll one actualy, [expletive haxx0red by Raijinn] they are good.
"One of"???? No. We Swashies ARE the top class in this game. I can't even bring myself to play my Conjuror any more. He's just nowhere near as much fun as my Swashie.
Started as a guardian but guild had to many tanks and needed some good scouts so I decided to level the swash. At first I was ug why me but as the levels progressed I grew fond of the class and would never go back. Swash > all. Now shh before the nerf bat is pointed our way first brigs so we might be next:robotmad:
You guys trying to speed up getting nerfed? Just stayin' I think we're perfect the way we are, and not overpowered. I hate bumping this, but it has to be said, stop making these useless threads. This wasn't intended for OP, more the people who commented on how incredibly awesome they *think* they are. -Symbolic
Oh yeah...one more thing. If you didn't play a swashbuckler pre lu-13 then you have no idea how overdue this was
