before TOB comes out, the dominating class in dueling is all fighter based

the order is like this

conjunor dual to fighter at low level (mainly imported from BGI)
werwolf druid dual fighter
barb
berserker/any fighter dual to thief
berserker dual mage
inquister
mage/cleric
monk
mage

in mplayer games, paladins are generally the best tanks in good hands
they get many spells that a normal fighter does not
paladins have natual ability to turn undead (a bonus vs vampire)
certain kit is immune to many negative effect
inquistr has powerful dispel and VERY useful True Sight
paladins can use Holy Avenger
paladins can specialize in any weapon a fighter can (which means, -2 thac0 compare to a fighter at same level, not much difference)
paladins have a natual high ability score

generally, paladin kicks ass in mplayer
fighter owns in duel
mages suck all time (in comparison, of course.)
