This is from the solo perspective of couse, where survival is key, as opposed to a raw offensive( unless you are talking about Mages/Sorcerers).

Maybe it is because I play on Insane Difficulty, but most people do nowadays anyway, thus I would want to avoid getting hit at any point of time. When an enemy can hit for 40+ damage and attacks 4-5 times per round with fantastic THACO, damage will not seem so important after all and you will want to look into ways on how to improve your AC/Defense.
erm so what did your cavalier wield? coz i wanted to gather enough information on weapons as so i won't put on the wrong proficiencies... i m currently soloing on berserker/cleric.. dual wielding.. but sometimes when i come across good weapons i feel kinda of upset that i had to sell it or leave it as i can't use them. I m using flail of the ages and defender of easthaven with insane difficulty(not that difficult in SoA, have not gone to ToB yet).

i intend to start a solo cavalier on my next game so.. pls help..
