Int is absolutely important for enchanters. Even with breeze/clarity/c2, you need a mana pool.

And I mentioned Sta and str as bonus. Having a higher health is beneficial, being slightly less encumbered is beneficial.

Advocating strength on an enchanter? GTFO. You don't wear plate, and you're not a kiting class. Plus you have stacking STR buffs. No. Just no.

Also, max mana does not matter except when you're at 100% mana. C2 and ToT plus INT/mana buffs definitely marginalize the need to invest starting points into INT or even gear for it. That's not even considering outside mana sources like bards and rods. As an enchanter, you are guaranteed to hit the INT softcap on an accident. Unless you picked human.

With epic, planar and sky gear, my enchanter hits 220 INT and 255 CHA buffed. While using 2 BS Ears / 2 HP Rings.

With Skyshrine gear it's even better. The Planar drops are solid and the PoSky quest pieces like the shoulders are very difficult to replace though.

The shoulders are just so damned good. HP + CHA. That's all that matters.

Rest of sky pieces are pretty meh.

[Daldaen]

Neck is also quite good, though less so with 6 talismans. Mask is meh. Belt is good just cause most better options for belts cost a huge amount. Ear is meh.

This has been an interesting conversation.

I rolled HE for the cha, but I can't help but think that my character looks like my friend Steve. I often cast illusion: half elf for that ranger look.

People like dark elf since they can break charm with no mana, but you can break charm using taper enchantment which costs a whopping 5 mana.

Wait.. Taper Enchantment breaks charm?? At all levels?

if its on the top slot

So theoretically, if i'm fighting guards in oggok they shouldn't have any buffs on them, and I can just use Taper, instead of invis? that's kind of brilliant. I wonder why no guides i've ever seen have mentioned that.

yep!
