Do I need INT Items?

[OlaeviaTraisharan]

<DIV>Alright, so I was trying to do the haunted house last night. I did do it, but it took *forever* to kill things. I don't think this is the templar dps problem; I think it's my own stupidity really with my character's stats.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>I am level 36 with 162 wisdom and 35 intelligence. I never really thought about it until this morning, but should I perhaps have more intelligence? I'm not sure what stats I *should* have to do more damage or how much it will affect my ability to solo.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>From what I've read, it seems I'm slower than other Templars, so something is wrong with ME and not the game itself.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Any thoughts?</DIV>

<P>The answer that works for me (your mileage may vary)</P> <P>YES!  In solo circumstances INT is very important for the damage increase</P> <P>NO! In group encounters, WIS is far more imortant for the power pool it provides. </P> <P>I have 2 sets of gear that I use.  My INT heavy stuff for soloing, and my WIS gear for groups and raids.</P> <P>I keep my armor the same but swap out my jewelry, hex dolls, ect. depending on the situation at hand.</P> <P> </P> <P> </P> <P>Hope that answers your question!</P>

Its not as huge of a deal at lower levels but as you get higher yes it can make a huge difference.  I carry two sets of gear myself and use the int gear for soloing.  Its definetly worth investing in if you can afford it.
