I WANT THAT CLOAK I WILL DO ANYTHING TO GET IT! that is some nice stats on that cloak :) and a nice ability too :) flowing thought V :) my cleric would love it since wisdom casters can only use it :D of course any DRU SHM ad CLR would do ANYTHING to get their dirty little hnds on it
Still learning about all these caps but from what i was told arnt most caps now int the 265 range taking aa's into account ? If so are either way does this bonus bring it up even higher ? And whtat is this hard cap soft cap ?... any help would be appreciated .. Ty , gl, and safe hunting :)
The hard cap on skills is still 252. You can't have higher than that. The only cap AA can raise is your stat caps (INT, DEX, etc).
Soft caps have two different meanings. A soft cap on a skill is how high you can get it, if it's lower than 252. For example, rogue backstab caps at 225 at level 60. The skill itself doesn't go any higher. However, with a +% backstab item, your effective skill goes up by that amount. The hard cap is still 252, so an adjusted skill can never be above that. The second meaning of soft cap is more subjective. It's generally considered the point at which gaining more of something (usually AC or ATK) doesn't really add much to general effectiveness.
No replies to this for a long time, but fyi with current aa's you can get much higher. I currently have wis at 380. With chaotic potential capped I believe the max would be 405, but not sure. In any case you can get much higher than 255. Also stats do get higher than 255 without aa's. But, it has been a long time since the last post so . . .

The guy that drops this cloak is named Jaggedtooth. I got the cloak on Feb 16th its my favorite item.Btw he looks like an Aligator or a Croc anyway laters >=)
My comment is on the channeling modifier. All three classes that can wear this item are able to get their channeling up to 250.. and by the time they are able to get this item they really ought to have their channeling maxed.. if they don't something is terribly screwed up. So, 5% to 250 would be about 12 more points or 262, right? Well, is it not true that all skills cap at 252? And if so wouldn't Channeling + 1% have the same effect?
No, that's not quite correct, Channelling is soft capped at 220 so would max at 231, assuming the hard cap is 252 like most other skills, you'd need to find a 15% mod increase to max it.
