    Default Best build to use SWF/Swashbuckler?

    So since we seem to have more or less the final version of SWF and Swashbuckler, now...what do you think is the best build to take advantage of a SWF Swashbuckler?

    Assuming pure Bard is still not a very attractive option...Bard 10 gives you CCW and Otto's Sphere, past that the returns get very minimal.

    I was thinking Rogue 10; gets you Imp Evasion, sneak die, Improved Uncanny, and a couple active-attack +[W] enhancements low in the TA and Assassin tree, since Swash is probably going to take up most of your AP.

    I looked at Sorc and FvS too for the CHA synergy, but Bard already has a lot of the Arcane buffs, and already has healing from the divine side, and I didn't know how useful L10 Sorc SLAs would remain through endgame, if you were already stacking Sonic SP on top of another element. But maybe an Air Savant is useful since its Sonic as well as Electric? Kinda weak SLAs, though, and probably wont have the AP to do much with it...

    I also looked at Arti for a "Cannoneer" build...but again, not a lot in Arti 10 for a fleshie with Sonic SP, that already gets CHA-to-dmg.

    Dark horse possibility: Bard 14/Ranger 6, pretty much just for Exposing Strike (and 3d6 sneak die) as a spammable rotation attack. With all the doublestrike, active +[W] or +crit attacks should be pretty useful.
