Bounty Hunters are extremely flavorful and powerful in their own right. To me a Swashie is simply a fighter with light armor. It's a great class if you don't care about backstab and want to just melee your opponent into the ground. I would just as soon pick a fighter class if this is the case. It gets mentioned a lot that backstab also becomes more and more useless as the series goes on. Well that's kind of true. It goes like this:
BG1 - Pretty sure every single opponent in the game can be backstabbed BG2 - Most opponents can be backstabbed ToB - The amount of backstab-immune opponents skyrockets
So if you're only playing though BG2 then backstab will be a part of your bread and butter basically the whole time. Anyhow back to the bounty hunter....This kit is extremely powerful and would work great in a party environment or solo. It will take more patience and tactical thinking but, to me, that's a plus. Game on!
