I'm playing as a monk and if you look at the advantages they make up for the deficiencies quite well. Magic resistance, charm and poison resisitance. Alot of damage dishin', Stun hit, Quivering palm. Also no armour means more for the rest of your group. Besides he can wear braces and stuff so in a way he excells Kensai's in that fashion. And you can still equip him with weapons that give him bonuses, just don't use em. Just use the cheats to get him to full lvl and just try it. Then take the cheats code out and play a new game. Thats how I check out kits.
But for wholesale slaughter just go for half-orc barbarian. Only prob I had with mine was the speed bonus meant he left the rest of the group behind and ended up in fights on his own. Not a problem except they bad guys were illithids and elder orbs.
By the way. I played as a Half-orc cleric (Lathanda I think) and I romanced Vicona for a while before I realised I'd gone to the underdark far to early. I was a lvl 11 cleric. The rest of the group were lvl 10. Not a good idea.
