Faith vs. Intelligence

[Zimy10]

So lets have a debate good and clean, which build is better? I personally have choosen faith but would like to see what others have to say. This goes for both PvP and PvE.

Intelligence lvl 50 > Faith lvl 50
This has better spells, just personally :)

PvE or PvP, INT builds win at both.

Faith has the lightning spears and healing for PvE, and the max you usually need is 30 vs INT.

Neither are really better. Both are very good.

faith has a relatively low cap to become really useful at 30, with basically all spells available at that point; better weapon buffs; and some very neat utility spells in Karmic Justice/Vow of Silence/TWoP/GMB

int has a much higher cap to become really useful at about 36, and again at 44; worse weapon buffs; better offensive capabilities; relatively useless utility spells in Fall Control/Aural Decoy/Hidden Body; two pretty good pure int weapons in MLGS and MLBH.

In essence--faith is much better as part of a combo build, str/faith or dex/faith, int. is much better as its own focused build. Int rules in PvE.

Faith for PvP, INT for PvE. The only good thing about INT regarding PvP is Dark Magic. Faith/DEX builds are so OP it hurts.

Oh, INT is also very good at MLGS. That weapon wrecks.

Or you know, WoG spam with Canvas talisman.

Faith because I love Paladin based builds. Also WoG is good crowd control in PvE and can be used as early as 28 Faith. While Lightning Spear and GLS are awesome, the cast times are ridonculous so I just reserve those for stationary beings.

Why not both?
