Weaknesses to exploit or reason said PC won't be great for long...d8 HD. Not great vs. long combats. Couple rounds vs trolls, giants, or high damage monsters and the PC will start hurting...Both classes are restricted to light armor. AC should be lower than true melee warriors. Again, strong monsters should bust that AC like nothing. If the PC invests heavy in defense, he loses in other areas (skills, offense)You need to flank or catch flat-footed. Not always easy to do. Swarms of critters, Uncanny Dodge, Fortifcation, and immune critters are all fair game. To get a full attack, you can't move more than 5 feet. Monster multiple attacks outstrip PC multiple attacks. Open a can of whoop on that free, open target.Alternately, very mobile monsters can avoid the PC and cause him to run around the room. Sneak Attack does not apply to tertiary attacks (bite attacks, etc) So that final hit is never a SA.Lots of monsters have DR. Use them. 10 or 15 off each SA makes that more bearable at higher levels. Same goes with Regeneration.He's gonna have a poor will save. Skip the NPC wizard fireball and go for dominate person. Then turn the ginzu-of-death on his friends...Personally, I'd worry more about a sorcerer/monk, a paladin/cleric, or if your ranger/rogue realizes its cheaper, easier, and more survivable to skip the TWF and go Archery...</blockquote>
