When your party levels up and monsters as well, your combat and strategies becomes much more dependant on magic. You can't just use your typical hack & slash tactic (which is pretty common in BG1) but have to cast some spells to protect your party or soften enemies defences. Usually mages/priests are characters which really decides if the battle is lost or won. For example one succesfull horror spell can win the battle for you at the beginning.
I was just wondering how could a level 30 fighter manage against level 30 wizard? Or a party of 6 fighters against 6 mages? I really can't see fighters winning that battle unless they are having godly gear. Wizard slayer class might be an exception...
Btw, are there any famous high level warriors in forgotten realms? I can find much information about some powerful wizards (Elminster, Khelben, Irenicus...) but not so much about epic warriors.
