How much int should i put into my build to level as fast as possible. i dont care about ratio at all, but should i do a balanced build?

anyone care to answer?

I would say little to no int until level 30 or so. Before that you can easily level off other bots (if you have a decent build and keep up with gear). After that you should slowly add intellect and have 45ish by 50 or 60 and train from there. You can do more int later, but after 50 your bot starts to go downhill in ability.

also, yes do a balanced build, str is good for those nice int armours with good def and int bonuses, dex is good for those nice shields with the added def and exp from blocks.

Con is suck for int builds, minimum con FTW

I like to go 2/1 Str/Dex until ~250ish Str, then dex to balanced. It gives me nice weaps, armors, and strength is nice to level during the mid ranges fo 60-110ish. Then by then I'm decently dex'ed and have enough toget a good shield and switch.
