#64078, "Well, one can make your argument for any class and edge set"
|
No one really needs any edges to be effective. But, people take them and consider some must haves since they are there.
I think if you look at the edge set and the bard builds I mentioned - most would take them because they are there and they would consider them high priority for that build. I think that's more what we are talking about.
I have no doubts you could play an edgeless bard and do very well.
One can play a sword spec without seven winds of Hamsah. Or an assassin without a buki edge or master edge. But most won't.
And you are right that they do narrow down how people fight. Your skullcrusher example shows that and shows we are kind of talking about the same thing. If you disagree with the bard edges - that's cool. I'm speculating on what I think are going to be the "skullcrusher" edges for bards. I guess one could go through recent bard PBFs and see.
Although, I absolutely think anyone playing human/halfie would see swashbuckler as a must have. How could you not? 23 dodge/evade over 20 when you only already parry with one hand?
