Intelligence is a Character Attribute that appears in Diablo III. Dubbed as Willpower in early development, it replaces the Energy attribute from Diablo II, itself a replacement for the Magic attribute from Diablo.
It is the primary stat for the Necromancer, Wizard and Witch Doctor classes. Every point in Intelligence increases all of their damage by 1%. In addition, for all classes, every 10 points in Intelligence increase all resistances by 1 point.
Some active and passive abilities of Witch Doctors can award temporary bonuses to Intelligence. Wizards, Witch Doctors, and Necromancers can also gain 5 Intelligence per Core stats points in Paragon, total amount limited only by total number of Paragon levels, and gain 3 Intelligence per level up (other classes gain 1). In addition, one can gain Intelligence from Topaz gems in armor sockets.
Intelligence is also the primary attribute for The Enchantress, increasing her damage and improving effectiveness of her skills.
