I recently saw a good number of ID fights and not once did they fail to cast Quickness/BoW before fighting.

I have. Although I've yet to see an ID die because of this, I've seen a KOEF bite the dust once because of his own Hell Sword (he failed to cast Phoenix Pyre, which was his main objective). As long as your IDs aren't immune to everything, expect your ennemies to trigger their berserking with AOE or 100 prec damage spells they're not resistant to, or heavy missile fire, or fliers.

Sometimes they were killed before (by spells) but the sword wasn't in the equation  .

I note the 'before' - so indeed it would have been in the equation if these spells had only damaged them. QED

But I now wonder if a combo Athame + MageBane, or Faithful, or Firebrand isn't better, at least against other SC (not against hordes of chaff dying to BOW alone ..)

Different situations ask for different answers, but I never take for granted the unique artifacts will be mine.
