It is? I am a bit of a bard noob, but I always felt that a Blades thaco was too low to compare to a fighter/mage. The 1 proficiency only and level 6 spells max sucks too. Their offensive spin isn't anywhere near as damaging as GWW either. [/QUOTE]Someone could make a calculation:
GWW and average damage with FOA - Fighter - 10 attacks
Improved haste + (dual wield for ex. FOA + Scarlet Ninja-To (for extra attack)) + Offensive Spin (Max. Damage) - 8 attacks

I don't think it's such a big difference and Blade can protect really well (Stoneskins, PFMW, ...) while fighter will usually need to be healed somehow.

BTW - I never ever used Tenser's Transformation except with Kuroisan fight in my entire solo run through SOA - THAC0 was good enough.
