Intelligence proves to be greater because in all cases strength is against them. Smaug is unassailably strong. The orcs outnumber them at every turn (strength in numbers). Beorn is strong but it takes the intelligence of Gandalf to garner it.

In my opinion, intelligence.

Thorin could have prevented dispute between the elves and the men, but being too proud and thinking they(the dwarves) were too strong led to his downfall. He could have used 'intelligence' to realise that an allegiance would prove useful and just share the long stolen treasure of his fathers. This is just one of the examples.

Which is more important intelligence or wisdom?

Both intelligence and wisdom are valuable, but wisdom often involves a deeper understanding and application of knowledge in a way that considers long-term implications and moral aspects. Intelligence refers more to cognitive abilities, while wisdom is characterized by experience, good judgment, and the ability to navigate complex situations with empathy and humility. Ultimately, a balance of both is ideal for making sound decisions and leading a fulfilling life.
