Nalia or Cernd, Jan was one of my best NPC's he never died and he hurt my enemies so badly with his spells and crossbow that Minsc and any other fighter I had could easily kill them.
Aerie CAN be good in close combat if you give her the Robe of the Good Archmagi, Shield Of Reflection, Ring of Earth Control, Mace Of Disruption, and Bracers of AC 3(Or 4, maybe even 5), kinda expensive, and a bit overkill just for one NPC, but if she has it, then she is TRULY powerful.
Valygar is also pretty strong, he slashes foes to shreads easily enough for me and he never dies on me, maybe you picked him up in Chap 6 where he will be weak and everyone else in your party strong and the enemies too strong for him?
As for Haer'Dalis, the one time I tried having him in my party he wasn't too weak, however there are so many NPC's that are better.
