Intelligence

Intelligence is one of the basic six stats of D&D Online.

Intelligence (INT)
Intelligence determines how well your character learns and reasons. This ability is important for wizards because it affects how many spells they can cast, how hard their spells are to resist, and how powerful their spells can be. It’s also important for any character who wants to have a wide assortment of skills.

You apply your character’s Intelligence modifier to: At first level (character creation) the number of skill points given is equal to (Class modifier + Intelligence modifier) * 4. At each further level gained in a class, a character receives a number of skill points equal to Class modifier + Intelligence modifier (with a minimum of 1 skill point). The class modifiers are as follows: +2 for Cleric, Fighter, Paladin, Sorcerer and Wizard; +4 for Barbarian; +6 for Bard and Ranger, +8 for Rogue.
 * The number of skill points gained each level.


 * Disable Device, Search, and Spellcraft checks. These are the skills that have Intelligence as their key ability.

A wizard gains bonus spells based on her Intelligence score. The minimum Intelligence score needed to cast a wizard spell is 10 + the spell’s level.

An animal has an Intelligence score of 1 or 2. A creature of human-like intelligence has a score of at least 3.
