One other thing: I believe Slayer mode sets your attacks per round to 5. While a warrior can achieve very close to this in unmodded SOA (4.5 for 13+ lvl warrior specialized and dual-wielding with either Belm or Kundane, or warrior specialized with Tuigan Bow... and hey, 5.5 if you dual-wield Belm AND Kundane) it takes pretty specific character planning to accomplish.
Do there exist individual character abilities, spell abilities, scrolls and potions that can together add up to equal or better bonuses than the Slayer? Absolutely. Can every battle in the game be accomplished without it? Absolutely. Does that make the Slayer useless? Absolutely not. Slayer mode means any PC can, for a short time, become an absolute melee monster with a fair shot against anything in the game... and without knowing every character, ability, item and monster in the game inside-out.
