On Taru probably yeah. On hume it was a fine balance, I figured it out long ago but lazy to rethink it lol.
More int (ie being taru) would just make the int to MAB ratio favor MAB not int more. So for non tarus ixion might even win on AM2.
Using the magic dmg formula and doing a whole bunch of algebra I made an equation that shows how much int is equivalent to 1 MAB as far as dmg goes.
Xint= (V + Mdint)/(M*100*MAB)
V and M values are on wiki. M for T4 and AM2 is 2.0
V values:
AM2-710
Blizz4-506
thunder4-541
From that you can figure out the most important spells or at least approximates if you don't know exact mob ints. MAB is in 1.something. Ie if you are wearing 42 MAB in gear and have 32 from job trait and 10 from potency meris it would be 1.84
Also until just a little while ago probably when people realize Hecate isn't all that hot Ixion was like 400k less on my server lol
