Armored enemies, more the goblins than the dwarves, are too absorbent of punishment. I can do a dash-dash-light-then-up+fierce combo with my level 20 Drizzt on the hardest difficulty and kill goblins and goblin archers in one go, yet it takes me almost as long to beat an armored goblin/dwarf as it takes a verbeeg. Drizzt needs armor-penetrating or guard-breaking move like other characters have and/or the armored enemies need to have their armor softened.
