Even with tweaked experience tables and delayed HLAs, I believe a f/m is still the best melee/tank character. Infact, I believe a F/I can take on a berserker and kensai at once. Lets say all characters have 3.2-3.5 million xp, even with GWW, 2 pure fighters cannot damage the f/i enough before the f/i decimates them with spells and improve haste. What do you guys think?

But what if we pit 2 f/m against a berserker and a sorcerer? At 3.5 million xp, the sorc will have gotten level 9 spells! Sikret has stated his preferance for the 2nd team. What about you guys?

Imho it depends on items and prebuff. Without prebuff and with good items, F/M-s would be the winner. Both would start with Stoneskin/PfMW, then hit berserker 1-2 times. Before their aura cleansed both move to sorcerer, 1 Breach the sorcerer, and they kill sorcere very fast. After this the berserker is a piece of cake.
If both are prebuffed, I think berserker and sorcerer would win. Sorcerer with SI: Divination. + Impr. Invis and and his PfMW is not dispelable by lower level F/M-s. So Sorcerer would bomb Fighter mages with spells. Sorcerer can easily dispel SI: Div from lower level mages, so they should use SI: Abj. If I would the sorcerer I wouldn't bother to bring down their defenses. I would use Greater Malison + Emotion+Slow combo from Spell Sequencer and some kind of stun/disable combo from Spell Trigger. After this I would spam Power Word: Stun, Chaos, Bigby etc. I am sure F/M-s would be down very fast after they are stunned or confused. I am not sure if Spell Sequencer from F/M-s could cause problem for sorcerer. Berserker would be immune to Emotion cause of rage.
