70INT + KtA (30+15 damage mod) is the equivalent to 100 stat for your damage stat and about 7 damage better than a 40 INT plus 70 DEX (30+7 damage mod) or the equivalent of 84 stat, ad 6 more Dex to it (from Tensors if you enjoy that sort of thing) and you're at 90. So again the differences are not what people are making them out to be and most of the differences are about anti-dex people cherry picking assumptions (like only Dex users will use Yugo pots... self serving nonesense, most Assassins will use neither, and most of them wont want to swap to a scroll constantly either)

Once again the people saying their is a "vast" difference are playing Forum DDO.

If needed they can Balance this quite easilly after the fact: remove 2 dex from Cap, ad it to INT. wow that was hard...

There are clear tradeoffs here those who insist that Dex is the "vastly superior" option are welcome to do less DPS than a INT while running around swapping to tensors scrolls over and over... I for one and I know a lot of other non Forum DDO'ers will avoid those lame scrolls like the plague and happily take the higher DPS KtA synergy option.

We now return you to your regularly scheduled Forum version of DDO.
Please, the only thing you seem to see is KtA and Tensers. I and some other posters proved you wrong like 20 pages ago so i don't know why you keep posting the same thing. KtA is really a minimal difference in DPS and it certainly is not in favour of INT build in total DPS when DEX based assassin can easily switch to LD while having the same/better assassinate DC. Obviously, you won't argue that 6-7 damage from KtA trumps 50+ MP and other DPS perks, right?

Yugo pots. I don't really know why you think people won't spend 1-2 hours of their play time to complete 5-6 lvl 19 quests on elite to get favor needed to buy them. Not to mention that you don't have to get the favor each life, you get it once and buy 2 mil worth of pots and not step a foot in any of those quests ever again. That's the self-serving nonsense. You buy a pot for plat that lasts 15 minutes and gain +1 damage, +1 DC, +6 SA to-hit, +1 regular to-hit, +1 reflex, +1 DEX skills and the drawback is -2 to-hit. Really, no one will use it, right...
