New player trying to start, confused on swashbuckler state
So I've been looking around an MMO to try to get immersed as an character that I made for an ttrpg a few months ago, I've found two that could get me what I want, LOTRO (Mariner) and EQ2 (Swashbuckler or maybe Brigand?).
It's just an simple fencer, really, nothing exceptional, but once you start digging on mmo... there almost no class that appeal to a single sword/rapier class fantasy (rip New World).
LOTRO Mariner NEEDS to hold an dagger (which is weird, since it's never used, and it's just a stat stick lol), so I just downloaded EQ2 to make a cool ratonga swashbuckler and go around doing quest and discovering the game... but I've found out that Swashbuckler in EQ2 don't have the "single hand" advancement anymore, but I need to confirm on this, since infos on this game is a bit hard to find t.t
TLDR: Is Swashbuckler still able to play as a single handed (no dual wielding/shield) class?
Sorry if I couldn't explain well, english is not my native language
