New player, Melee class help.

[Ncimli]

Hi.

Im currently DLing the game and i wanted to find the class i want to play while im waiting, i've gotten so far to know that i want to be a Dwarven melee class, and i love Dual-Wielding so i was looking on 3 classes that seems pretty much the same in play style and stats, so i wanted to know if there was any advice on any of these 3 classes?.

Class:
Barbarian - Storm of Kargon
Fighter - Whirlwind Fighter
Monk - Two-headed Heron

They seem to be pretty similar to eachother however they got a few small diffrences from what i can see, is there 1 of those 3 classes theres better than the others for grps / solo?

Of those three, the barbarian will probably be simplest to learn the game with. Monks are hard to get the most out of (have to get the timing just right to get their special attacks off), and fighters have to pick the right enhancements to go with the feats automatically chosen by their path to get the most out of it.

Thanks.

So Barb if i want an easy time to begin with . what got the most potential at higher levels?, and would you rather suggest another melee class?

Rangers are excellent dual-wielders too.
