The fighter is probably glad to have him around, and the mystic theurge probably likes having a fighter around.It is worth noting though, that if you actually play this character at lower levels, he is not only not superior but is actually pitiful for a large portion of career. Thus goes the weirdness of caster multiclassing in 3e. Even if the endpoint was clear superiority, I've yet to see a player take a chance on the mystic theurge route.</blockquote>
