Strength
Strength directly effects your dps immediately and throughout your entire leveling experience. p99 eq is trivial, raid min/max is silly (my opinions), str helps immediately. | ||

INT only if you're taking this char all the way, total mana pool means basically nothing unless you're doing some big solo artist stuff and need every last bit
STR gets my vote for the OP - seems like he wants to just mess around and do greenmist...you'll be benefiting from STR the entire time and if you happen to reach 60 and get raid gear your starting stats won't matter anyway | ||

STR is really easy to get with EC gear. If this was OP's first character, or an SSF character, STR would be a good option. OP has multiple level 60 characters, so they aren't going to be hurting for cash. INT is still better for OP.

Again, INT does absolutely nothing to help with the fact that OP is going to be using more mana unless he's spiking from 100 to 0 which should be quite rare Like, 90% chance this dude just ends up being a lvl 41 iksar SK with 142 STR, 158 STA, and all his points in INT lol. Long, long ago somebody compiled a distribution of all the classes at various levels over a long period of time. Something like 80% of all hybrids abandoned their class in the 40's/low 50's, far higher than other classes. When the reality of what the class is sets in, and the breezy leveling experience tapers off, very few stick with it. Meanwhile he's gonna be encumbered all day and killing more slowly because he went INT for the very specific situation of being 60, raid buffed, and raid geared. Cmon Go int on ogres/trolls, not iksar unless maybe you're specifically leveling the class for high end raiding-- in which case, what are you thinking being an iksar? | |||

For the long term, put your points into INT because it will help you at all levels, including level 60 with BiS gear. STR is very easy to get with EC gear. There is no reason to assume OP cannot get more than enough STR for carrying everything and doing good DPS when they have multiple level 60 characters. Having 140+ STR as a level 41 Iksar SK is already good enough. That plus Shralok Packs will allow you to carry everything you need, while having good DPS. I am really not sure where people got the idea that you need to have 200+ STR while leveling to thrive. This simply isn't true.

OP isn't going to have access to Blood Ember Clickies as an Iksar, so mana is even more important to them. Iksars have the least amount of ways to save mana. INT is the best choice for SKs as a starting stat in Velious, where STR and STA are common on cheap gear. Quote:
Your posts are also generally just trolling, so I am not sure why you think you have any upper hand here.

How about: When you are soloing, the higher your strength the faster you kill. The faster you kill the less mana it takes to get a kill. The less mana you use, the less time you have to sit on your ass getting mana back. Or how about: The more strength you have the more loot/coin you can carry before making a bank and vendor run. The less you have to make that run the more time you can spend killing and otherwise enjoying the game. I’m a wizard, Harry.
