For quite some time, I've been wondering why there is both Pirate class and Swashbuckler class (not to mention why one is warrior and other weapon-specialist). After all, the term "swashbuckler" originated from pirates and it was then used to refer to pirates for quite some time... As for potential replacements, I would probably suggest "Swordsman", "Mercenary", maybe even "Duelist", but that is about as close to Swashbuckler as Pirate class is. =)

Then there are the Western European changes: Guardian and Paladin are basically the very same concepts, only one is church / belief bound, other than that, I cannot see the smallest of differences... Moreover, Cleric's replacement - Templar - is by most definitions far closer to Guardian than to any healing construct... I do not even understand what's wrong with Cleric in the first place, but even if I assume there is a need for replacement, how did it come to Templar instead of, let's say, Priest... that's just completely beyond me! =P
