I usually play as a Kensai and dual him to mage later on. I can't speak for the other fighter kits as I don't play them. But due to his inability to wear armor and bracers, he gets incredible THACO and damage bonuses as he levels up. At least in the Kensai's case, The Grand Mastery bonuses are pure "Icing" on an already incredible THACO+damage cake! With a good 2Handed sword, it is not uncommon for him to 60+ damage per hit and with the speed bonuses and that incredible THACO, you don't even worry about the fact that he can't wear armor and bracers anymore.
