There is no substantial reason why they're *better*, because they're not, but they are /necessary/. Spells aren't the answer to everything.
The Naga Xydusa, for instance, in the Serpent Temple, is affected by almost no spells; far and away the best solution for her is to cast a bunch of defensive spells (here's where the casters come in) and rush her, hacking her to pieces.
Likewise the big guy, Cet: only the Mavin & the Staff of Death work on him, so *someone* has to be strong in sword and staff. Incidentally, the only person who was strong in staff was my Oomphaz Warlock (ex-Monk/Priest), so those casters came in useful once again -- as fighters
Incidentally, the Wizard's Dagger is awesome, I found two of them -- one for my Pixie Warlock & one for my Assassin. In other words, the Wizard's Dagger isn't limited to Wizards (curious, huh?)
