FMT's can use good mage stuff (Vecna, SoMagi) early, so can kick butt. Besides, the amount of spell-emulating items is limited, and most of the spells you would want to cast you can't until ToB, and by then you've hit the XP cap. FMTs have the advantage of being able to cast a neat spell, hit a few people, then cast another, and another, etc. Once they run out of spells, they just run around a corner and hide, then backstab for 150+ damage. (on critical hit) Nothing beats the FMT's overall versatility. I have yet to encounter a situation he couldn't handle... alone.
