"Like the Seafolk, Swashbucklers come from somewhere beyond the endless waters of the west. Due to the great pragmatism of your kingdom, their dubious origins remains uninspected, so long as they put their fancy footwork to use in dungeons."

The Swashbuckler is a special Tier 4 class from the Desktop Dungeons: Extreme Edition mod, unlocked by paying 3000 gold at the Guild. The class specializes in building up temporary dodge percentage.


Strategy

Races

Human Swashbuckler.png Swashbuckler can become a great striker with the Race: Human Human or Race: Orc Orc race. Both races add raw power and make his dodges and Glyph: GETINDARE GETINDARE more valuable.

Since Human Swashbuckler.png swashbuckler needs casting spells for dodge buildup, spellcasting approach with Race: Elf Elf or Race: Gnome Gnome (preferably with God: Mystera Annur Mystera Annur or God: Jehora Jeheyu Jehora Jeheyu) can be extremely powerful. Other races are also suitable for spellcasting or hybrid builds.

Deities

God: Tikki Tooki Tikki Tooki is a fantastic choice for a Human Swashbuckler.png swashbuckler. Since he loves to constant dodging, piety can accumulate very quickly. Moreover he gives permanent dodge chance, poison, God boon: Learning Learning, and a powerful potions to get free hits on bosses.

Since you plan to cast spells a lot to build up your dodg chances, then gods that reward spell-casting like God: Mystera Annur Mystera Annur or God: Jehora Jeheyu Jehora Jeheyu can become decent choices. God: Mystera Annur Mystera Annur gives extra mana points, mana restores, situational boons, and she's a very good and safe option. However, it is not recommended to get God boon: Mystic Balance Mystic Balance. It makes Glyph: GETINDARE GETINDARE glyph becomes less mana efficient. God: Jehora Jeheyu Jehora Jeheyu is a wonderful god for spellcasters and everyone in general, and he often reacts to constant dodges.

For the most part, God: Taurog Taurog is a poor choice for the Human Swashbuckler.png swashbuckler because of his hatred of glyphs.

Other gods might be a good choice for the Human Swashbuckler.png swashbuckler due to their boons, which help complement his strengths.
