Int Bird

[Slade431]

Intellect Bird Discuss. Are they any good because birds kinda run out of mana fast. PvE or PvP? What skills are good for int bird? Do you play one and are they fun? I'm just wondering because I might respec my bird to int bird or warbird because I like to be different than a pure dex bird

[Fatpigwarrior]

Warbird much better IMO, INT birds sux coz low hit

[Leli]

Int isnt that good... Here are some stats for you to decide on what to do
-Warbirds; Good Defense
-Full dex; Good range and damage
-Int; Low hit, kind of low armor

Also forgot to mention that the skill damage is decent too not as good as endgame full dex but very good going up in levels and u can dual dex and int for a good combo

Int and dex has more hit than str and dex.

Int has awesome skill damage and is mainly a PvE spec. More skill damage than dex bird, as well as awesome weapon procs. Usually around or higher armor than dex. Can perform terror combo, as well as having the option to wield an AoE weapon. I'm not too familiar with bird, but that's the just of it.

true, thanks for the help in noticing that mistake

Id like to PvE also like to be different than everyone being a pure dex bird. Still trying to decide between warbird or int bird. Now what about int/dex, dex/int, str/dex etc what would be nice for pve.

I thought int birds made up for their low attack speed with high skill damage... Was I wrong?

Int birds look awesome Looking l33t with their staffs and wands and bracers and...well, it's can be an aesthetic choice as well as an attributes one

int bird would be better in pve but in pvp they sux cause they dps is low and int only gives mana increase instead of bird's regular skill like crit and hit percent

Incorrect.

Adding strength (str emphasizes survivability, at the expense of damage)
- Each str point gives you 0.02 dmg per hit, so you need 50 points of str for 1 extra dmg
- Each str point gives you 0.03 crit, so you need 33.33 (recurring number) points of str for 1% extra crit
- Each str point gives you 0.025 dodge, you you need 40 points of str for 1% more dodge
- Each str point gives you 0.02 H/S, so you need 50 points of str for 1 H/S more
- Each str point gives you 0.05 armor, so you need 20 points of str for 1 armour more (this one is unverified)
- Str points also increase your hp reserves. Every 2 points of str increases your hp by 1, rounded down.

Adding dex (dex emphasizes maximum weapons damage at the expense of survivability and mana)
- Each dex point gives you 0.15 dmg per hit, so you need 6.67 points of dex for 1 extra dmg
- Each dex point gets you 0.167% hit, so you need 6 dex for 1% more hit
- Each dex point gets you 0.032 crit, so you need 31.25 points of dex for 1% more crit
- Each dex point gets you 0.0125 dodge, so you need 80 points of dex for 1% extra dodge
- Each dex point gives you 0.01 H/S, so you need 100 points of dex for 1 H/S more
- Each dex point gives you 0.025 armor, so you need 40 points of dex for 1 armour more

Adding int (int is like a compromise between everything)
- Each int point gives you 0.08 dmg per hit, so you need 12.5 points of int for 1 extra dmg
- Each int point gets you 0.1% hit, so you need 10 int for 1% more hit
- Each int point gets you 0.02 crit, so you need 50 points of int for 1% more crit
- Each int point gets you 0.005 dodge, so you need 200 points of int for 1% extra dodge
- Each int point gets you 0.005 h/s, so you need 200 points of int for 1 h/s more
- Each int point gets you 0.02 m/s, so you need 50 points of int for 1 m/s more
- This one is not yet confirmed, but every 2 points of int increases your mana reserve by about 1 (the game seems to have some oddities with rounding)

However, even with this, the gains in mana regen and mana reserves are not enough to offset those from losses in damage. Staff and wand not only do a lot less weapons damage, they also have a slower muzzle velocity. Even with the pot consumption, dex bird is a better option.
