Question Dueling wishlists

Yesterday went back to role up a new Character based on a p&p character i used to have - Human Ranger dueled to mage.

i finished the irenicus dungeon before i remebered that Rnager mage is not valid in BG2

so my question is (and this may have been discussed before but not scince iv'e been here) if all multi/duels were valid which classes would you like to play, which would be most fun and which most powerful

I would like to see a ranger mage of some sort because I realy enjoyed my original one and i would like to be able to play a ranger bard because the idea intregs me from a roleplaying perspective.

i cant realy see a monk dueling though it would be powerful.

anyway your thoughts?

Anything -> Sorcerer

Think about a Monk/Sorcerer. Can you say overpowered? And, I wonder if a Mage/Sorcerer would work. The ultimate spellcaster right there.

Without question: anything dueled to sorcerer. I can think about a barbarian/sorcerer (best tank) or a cleric(kit)/sorcerer (best caster). The (dual) monk/sorcerer is not an option, as a low level monk is not strong enough.

In BG2, monk/sorcerer isn't an option, but think about ToB. You have 8 million xp (I think) to work with. On top of that, the quests are going to give more experience than the BG2 ones so it won't take as much time either.

Thinking about TOB, it would be really nice to triple-class. What about a Barbarian/Cleric(kit)/Sorcerer (9/10/28?)?

Multiclass monk Sorceror would be cool.
100 percent magic resistant many many attacks per round and stoneskinned and mirror imaged. You go in with a greater malison and then turn on quivering palm. Or maybe let your simulacrum do it.
