Depends on the situation. Using best weapons available for the class? For quick, devastating attacks the Kensai-Mage has to take the cake. Stoneskin, Mirror Image, Haste, Spirit Armor and Tensers dual-wielding Celestial Fury and the Zerthblade will make him unbeatable in any one battle but you can only use those spells so often before you have to rememorize. And you will spend a lot of the early part of the game being shielded by others because your AC is just shithouse without those spell buffs. So you have to be selective with who you attack and you better make damn sure that you kill whatever you attack in the first couple of rounds. For overall versatility through the game the Berserker is pretty tough, put Armor of the Hart +3 or Gorgons Plate, make him dual wield Crom Faeyr(best weapon in the game) and Stonefire +3 and he can kick ass from the early levels, and no external buffs needed. Plus he can enrage which makes him immune to confusion etc.
