[[File:Intelligence Score Icon.png|frameless|left|150px]] '''Intelligence''' is an [[ability score]] and the primary ability of [[wizard]]s.


'''Intelligence''' is an [[Character Creation#Ability Scores|Ability Score]] and the primary ability of [[Wizard]].
Intelligence affects your [[Arcana]], [[History]], [[Investigation]], [[Nature]], and [[Religion]] skills. It also improves spellcasting for wizards, [[fighter]]s (especially valuable for [[Eldritch Knight|Eldritch Knights]]), and [[rogues]] (especially valuable for [[Arcane Trickster|Arcane Tricksters]]), by increasing the chance of hitting an enemy with spell attack rolls, due to the increased [[Difficulty Class]] of spells with [[saving throw]]s.


Intelligence affects your Intelligence skills ([[Arcana]], [[History]], [[Investigation]], [[Nature]], [[Religion]]) and improves spellcasting for [[Wizard|Wizards]], [[Eldritch Knight|Eldritch Knights]] and [[Arcane Trickster|Arcane Tricksters]] (chance to hit with spell attack, spell's [[Difficulty Class]]).
