Dueling Swashbuckler

The idea was to make a great one vs one fencer and a viable PvE combatant. Is there something I have missed or that can be improved upon?

SD needs dex 19 base I think. Weapon Master might be too much.

I went with a copy of this http://nwn2db.com/build/?265849 and it works well, but for the will saves.

Thanks, I knew I missed something. Lowered intelligence forgoing some damage and got 20 dex, I think I needed the Ab any case. As for the weapon master, the benefits from better crit chance and multiplier gives me around 30 to 40 percent more damage against crittable targets between targets with AC of 45-55 which I think would be the numbers I would face apart from people who build for very high ac as their main goal. I thought it was a a good trade off?

Apologies, I forgot to change that it was a placeholder, I have put deadly defense instead. And apart from applying insightful strike damage to crit immune targets what am I losing? Is it gonna make that much of a difference?

Edit: I realized that I lose things like weakening strike and such which looks very good for a duelist.
