Yes, INT matters on skill damage.

Keeper Staff is AOE and yes it does indeed help killing a lot.

Not with mage. Dex mages used to be good before the rebalance. Go pure int or Pally.

Pure ints have very very high damage ( thus the nuke mage )
Pally's can tank. If you dual equipt a pally you can be a nuke mage and pally a boss.

Get the wand and bracer first. The keeoer staff is potent but will just get you killed repeatedly in AO3 in most groups.

Yes skill damage is affected by base damage, weapon damage, skill rank, and Int (for mages), as well as crit in a sense.

I only use the keeper because of the skill damage. Non Crit Fire Blasts for 300 FTW!
