str for carrying weight alone while leveling feels really nice. the damage benefit is obviously good too. it'll overcap eventually w/ good gear and shaman buffs at 60 but it helps during the part of the game where you're riding the struggle bus.
int is obviously better in the situations where ur str is capped and getting 1 extra spell off from the last of ur mana pool will be clutch but those situations are a lot less common and normally only happens when u fuck up.
ultimately the difference is really minor either way and your gameplay / who you chose to play with will make way more of a difference than 20 stats. i cannot stress enough how unimportant of a decision ur starting stats are. i dont know how this thread got to 62 pages w/ ppl busting out the source code to prove that having more strength will make u hit harder.
