Personally I would buy Warblade +4 and forge Warlord's Blade asap. It's immunity to charm and confusion is crucial, and thanks to god, I chose 10 % weapon resistance wich is very valuable also. My F/T dual uses this sword when he needs imminity or weapon resistance, and I am using Staff of the Ram or Poseidon's Wrath when he needs higher damage output.
Regarding instant kill efects: My blade is using Axe of the Unyielding+5 now (among many other weapons
) and those instant kills are quite rare... There is a saving throw against this effect, it's proc is lowered etc. Not totally bad, but if you are low in gold I would chose Warlord's Blade...
