You can still hit 201 INT with an Iksar in EC gear and free rot drops while also focusing on HP. A Necro can easily farm the money for this stuff just by killing guards while leveling.

Casters get 2.4 HP per STA, and 5.5 Mana per INT (over 200) at level 60. With 25 STA/5 INT on starting stats, you are looking at +60 HP vs. +138 Mana before you cap your INT with buffs and slightly better gear. After you cap INT you are getting +60 HP instead of +0 Mana.

Except most people aren't twinking a Necro to that extent. I made what I consider a much more realistically and cheaply geared Necro twink:

I have more HP and about 200 less mana than your example with probably a quarter of your budget or less. This is how you can feasibly gear when pumping INT at creation. That being said, I think you can reasonably argue for pumping STA if you know you are going to be heavily twinked from the beginning and are confident you will be pushing the character to 60 and acquiring raid gear, because it's true that the extra INT becomes meaningless at the very late game. But if you're an average player either making a Necro from scratch or just messing around with a reasonably geared twink, I think you're much better off pumping INT.
