What can Korgan do against that vorpal hitting dwarf who is one of Kangaxx's guardians? Die. 
Haer? PFMW and yawn while hitting the bad guy. Or he can cast Mislead just out the sight and chop him again with no trouble.
What can Korgan do against Firkraag? He WILL be hit for sure and that's around 60-70 damage. Who do you think will last longer. Korgi or the big Red? Haer can go under PFMW and SI:Abj and keep all his protections on while hitting Firky and the big Red can wait for merciful death.
I've beaten Improved Irenicus solo on Insane with a Blade. I don't think it can be done with a Berserker dwarf fighter.

how do all these prove or disprove Korgan's value as NPC? Do we solo Korgan or put him into a party? With a party, that vorpal hitting dwarf will be backstabbed to death by misled Jan or Imoen while Korgan flirting with Mazzy elsewhere. Firkraag wouldn't be able to hurt Korgan after three wizards and Jaheira render him moral failure while Korgan and the other fighter just whack him for free.
I've never played on Insane, let alone hard; so I need help here, honestly nobody ever played Korgan on Insane? I used to beat Improved Irenicus (on core of course) with this party: Mazzy, Korgan, Jaheira, F/M (PC), Edwin, and Aerie. In my victory, the imp. haste + potion of heroism Korgan definitely contributed and survived well. Now my question: does this party have no chance surviving the Insane improved Irenicus?
