Actually no, I'm not envisioning him at the Epic Levels.
For he won't get to the Epic Levels alive, if he takes the wrong Feats at lower levels.
It was always difficult, in my opinion, for lower level mages to survive (especially those under 5th level.)
Even with good Feats, I see a mage of low levels as being something that should be played prudently; with caution.
However, one does take Feats with an eye on the Feats to be taken in the future.
Thus, I use the term Feat Path.
One doesn't have to adhere to a Feat Path, but it's worth keeping in mind, in my opinion.
And in roleplaying terms, an academy of magic or arms might well start the character down a particular Feat Path, and if the character returns there repeatedly for study, tend to reinforce the Path.
