Someone wanna check my work?

Say I am lvl 60, have 245 Int, and ignore +mana on other items.

Benchmark-no item: 0 Int, +0 Mana, 245 Total Int, 2730 Mana
Runescale Cloak: 3 Int, +0 Mana, 248 Total Int, 2744 Mana
Mystic Cloak: 5 Int, +0 Mana, 250 Total Int, 2753 Mana
Onyx Drakescale Cloak: 0 Int, +35 Mana, 245 Total Int, 2765 Mana
Heiro Cloak: 4 Int, +75 Mana, 249 Total Int, 2823 Mana

Did you actually try on those items to get the new totals, or are you using the formulas provided?

The best way to tell is to take off your Runescale cloak and see how much you drop. According to this, you should drop ~15. If that is true, then each point of INT is worth 5 mana. So mystic is 5*5=25. Onyx drakescale is 35. Clear winner.

Nah, I'm actually trying to figure out what to get to upgrade. I'm saving up for a heiro but its not im my budget yet. Onyx or Mystic I can camp.

That looks right. The idea is basically that above 200 wis/int you should examine straight up +mana items because you might get a better return.

So you don't have to check, here are the values using Deajay's formula (which appears to jive with your empirical evidence)

INT | mana gained from baseline of 200
200 | 0
205 | 23
210 | 46
215 | 69
220 | 93
225 | 116
230 | 139
235 | 163
240 | 186
245 | 209
250 | 232
255 | 256

So basically you get 4 or 5 mana (usually 5) per int point above 200. The variance comes from the truncation of the mana value.
