I duelled my kensai at level 18 to a thief, which could then gain the ability "use any item", which allowed him to not only wield the Carsomyr+6, but also to wear any armour (the white dragon scale is AC-2 and doesen't hinder thieving skills). Result? A tank with an AC of -14 (with ring of gaxx, cloak of Montolio, amulet of the master harper, white dragon scale bonus +2 AC for being a kensai), strength of 23 (girgle of fire wearing symbol of lathander), grandmaster in 2-handed swords and katana, two solts in 2-handed weapon style wielding Carsomyr+6 and attacking 4 times per round (with help from boots of speed and gauntlets of extrodainary specialisation - previously unusable by a kensai), bonus + 6 to hit + 6 damage, -4 speed factor and can backstab for around 200 damage (hehe, you aint seen nothing until you've seen a grandmaster kai critical quintituple backstab with 25 strength and a +4 katana, and oddly, the staff of the ram+6 lets you backstab??)

This guy just seems a little over powered, mainly due to the use any item ability that allows a kensai to use equipment he was previously unable to. Any opinions?
