Korgan is a superb fighter - easily the best in the game - and I'd go as far as to say he's a better fighter than any NPC in the original BG. He's a berserker, which means he tanks well, hits hard and can use enrage. He uses axes. Axes are, in my opinion, the second best type of weapon in the game. Go to the temple sewers and take that hatcheteer's returning throwing axe, give it to Korgan, and he'll be doing 15-20 damage with every ranged hit. I've never seen him miss, and he attacks so many times per round I lose count. Everyone I've ever met who has heaped shit on Korgan has, surprise surprise, never actually used him. Of course it's ultimately your choice: three rangers or one Korgan.
