It's an interesting question and worthy of investigation. However, you'll get vastly more benefit out of hp/mana/int/resist gear than you will ever get out if dex. I chime in only to point out that hp gear is incredibly valuable for a wizard early on and mana gear is more valuable than int gear early on.


Thought experiment: if you could ignore int/mana/hp gear to get a 50% better channeling rate, would you?

Nope. And evidence indicates the difference can't be that much.

While this is true, INT is easy to max. If we're talking a level 60 epic wizard with MAX INT, good resist gear etc, then the proper place to work on might be DEX if it helps with channeling through interrupt.

Also, for the power solo classes like Shaman and Enchanter it becomes even more important. Getting interrupted is a big deal I imagine. Significant reduction of that would be a worthwhile investment.
