I was just prepping my Honour mode 1st try and noticed something weird in char creation.
I was debating whether taking Necro at the start is worth at all, so I went with inquisitor preset and switched around the Attributes between ST and INT to see how much Mosquito Swarm would increase.
Totally unexpected to me the Warfare skills also get their scaling from Int and seemingly not from ST at all. (Only auto attacks do???)

edit:tentacle lash seems to scale with ST.

Spells always use their keyed attribute, Weapon-based abilities scale with your respective weapon's Attribute, but this isn't really indicated anywhere so it's easy to be confused at first.
This allows you to use a Staff with select Warfare skills to scale with INT, but not use a 2H Sword to scale your Necromancer spells with STR.

Hm that's really strange, since Inquisitor wields a 2h hammer in char creation, but yet his Warfare skills are shown to scale with Int there.
But you are right I tested it out ingame and they don't scale with Int if you equip a physical melee weapon.
