btw I dualed my kensai mage at level 12 and he hit better than my straight fighters like minsc or keldorn until ToB I think. those +1 to hit an damage every 3 levels makes a huge difference. Sure it doesn't compare to a straight kensai but when comparing to normal fighters you will have a mage with a thac0 equal to most everyone else in the party... On top of that you can wear robes if you go with a mage (or backstab abilities as a thief). I think by the time that your thac0 starts to lag behind the class that you dualed to really starts to pay off and you melee less anyhow. THis happened with my kensai/mage. I found once I got to ToB he was so killer as a mage I used his mage abilities in the hard fights and when I wanted to save spells I used his fighting abilities (and then his slightly lower thac0 did not matter as much)
