That depends, best staff and spell in the game is 50 int. I sugest having a back up weapon. As for attunment at 50 intelect with Crystal soul spear, you will be 3 shotting pretty much everything in th evanilla game.

I sugest having a Side weapon to buff as for attunment you will probably want about 4 Attunment slots. (Keep one open because crystal soul spear requires 2 and you can't free up a lot well, not with out re-attuning. If you need more there is a ring later in the game that will give you like 3 more attunment slots.

As for useful spells, Any of the Magic weapon buffs, And of the soul mass spells, Crystal soul spear Or Soul spear. Other then that its up to personal preference.

If you are planning on invading, Soul shower and soul vortex are decent options. as well as soul barrage. some one would have to teach you how to use it all though.
