Sorry. No single classed warrior can hold a candle to the Monk. A Monk is capable of killing anything in the game in one shot. Monks gain better magic resistance then the Wizard Slayer, have more bonuses then a Berserker in his berserk state, and, can do more damage and make more attacks per round then a Kensai. Not to mention they move incredibly fast, quickly closing the gap between the party and the enemy.

At high levels, a Monk becomes pretty much immune to everything. Arrows, weapons, magic, almost anything you throw at them, they can soak it up and ignore it for the most part.

Quivering Palm is the cheesiest attack in the game. It by passes stoneskins, kills instantly, and makes the Monk a fearsome figure in combat.

Sorry, but, all of the fighter kits in BG suck eggs. Big time. However, as I have stated many times, dual classing changes the dynamic considerably.

Monks and Blades both are the supreme force on the battlefield. In the hands of a skilled player, nothing else comes close.
