Question, why is dualing at lvl 13 no good without ToB even when you're soloing? You can make a lvl 13/14 Kensage in SoA with 200 000 XP to spare. As a soloist, the 2 750 000 XP required can be accumulated well before even leaving for Brynnlaw and completing any of the five major chapter 2-3 subquests.

The XP cap is thus irrelevant. What there actually is to consider, is whether you want a stronger fighter or a stronger mage. The difference between lvl 9/17 and 13/14 for a Kensage is

13/14
  • gets a -5 THAC0 Bonus
  • gets a +1 Damage Bonus
  • gets +1/2 APR
  • gets a 2/2/2/3/2 Saving Throws Bonus
  • gets a -1 Speed Factor Bonus
9/17
  • gets an extra lvl 4,5 and 6 spell
  • gets two extra lvl 7 spells
  • gains access to lvl 8 spells
  • regains Fighter abilities at 500 000 XP rather than 2 750 000 XP
For me the choice is rather obvious, the vastly improved Fighter side is much more useful than a few extra spells.
