My fighter's thaco is -3 but Minsc's is still 4 and 6. Dual-wielding is much better than 2 handed sword but Minsc can be only specialized thats why 2 handed works better for him.

ahhh, Two handed weapons are also just awsome, so it works out.

I have Minsc at 2 stars for dual wielding and two handed. I also have him 2 stars proficency wit the mace, two handed sword and long bow. Give him the Mace of disruption +2, Boots of Speed and the Mace +3 and he's a vampire blender.

Minsc can put 3 points into dual wielding however and any more than 2 points in a weapon only increases his THACO0 by 1. so his offhand will be a slightly worse thaco0 but that is offset by the fact that the selection of 1 handed weapons is far superior to the 2 handed weapons. I fill up tons of space in my bag of holding just carrying all of the cool weapons that I like to swap in and out of my dual wielders hands depending on the fight.

Minsc is a Ranger and thus a natural Dualwielder

you want to give any high str character as many chances of hitting as possible, thus dual-wielding minsc is the way to go.
