The only difference between them (unless intelligence as first named does more) is the direct effect Piety has on spell points which, in my measurements is 0.2% per point of piety. Thus, if you have 400 Spell Points and add a +10 Piety ankh it will give you 408 Spell points.

Your spell points will go up rapidly as you use your magic, and get magic realm increases, since the realm magic strongly affects spell points.

The lack of powercast depends on what you intend to cast, for it's importance. If you just intend to cure, summon, portal, heal, buff, and protect, those spells are about 90% effective without powercast, not too big a hit.

It depends on the party and your preference... go for it!
That's right; I really only use those spells with the Bishop so the more points the better. The three Lords cast Guar. Angel first (in large battles) and then the Bishop does the rest.
My party of 4; Bishop and 3 Lords just took out Nebdar at Lvl: 16. I picked up 5554999 exp and it seemed easier than any time I've used 6 in the party. I took virtually no damage at all. I always build Vitality and Piety for my casters now, even for the mage. I really like it better then working on Int. It's just a personal thing but a caster that isn't dead is always more affective!
