I'm on my first run through the game, and I chose to use Mazzy over Valygar. I've been using her as a tank. She levels up quickly, so its no problem to get her up to grand mastery soon enough with the short sword. I have her using a short sword of backstabbing +3 b/c it is the best I've found so far, but she's also got a sword that allows her to mirror image...a nice option that I haven't really used much. I boosted her strength with the gauntlets of ogre power. I suppose its all in the way you decide to outfit them. I've placed all my focus on her for low AC and improved strength to make her tank#1. I would imagine that as the game progresses there will be many opportunities to beef her up even more. Currently She and Keldorn lead the way, and she has had to bail him out a time or two. The idea posted above about using her as an archer is a good one. I used that strategy at first, but once I got her a decent shield I decided to stick with the tank method. Another plus for her is her magic resistance. It's very rare for spells to take effect on her, although I think I also outfitted her with some anti-magic amulet. She also has the infinite book of spells with spell turning in a quick item slot. A pretty tough cookie.
