Great players of IA who can rule the game on insane with ease, please let me know which melee person you consider best to wield 2H weapons (particularly halberds) and why. My thinking is kensai or barbarian. The kensai should be able to Greater Whirlwind and hit just about anything but his defense will suck without potions or Spirit Armor. The barbarian has much better defense (rage, resistance, good armor), but he may be using Critical Strike rather than Greater Whirlwind - not sure which would be optimal. But these are the thoughts of a lesser player. What do you think?

Chaser, have you played these classes on insane? I am skeptical that they would fare well vs a pure kensai on the second rank doing GWW. I may consider a high level dual in ToB. Maybe Kensai 21-thief? I do like Bards, particularly with summons. However, I like Bards in my heavily modded SCS game much more than in IA.

Does Sparrowjacek have some wisdom to share?
