A lot of the skill capes have rather disappointing effects, but none as disappointing as the Attack Skill Cape. 2% chance to not degrade is pretty worthless and to be frank, thoughtless.
How about any of the following instead:
* 5-10% chance on auto attack for an additional auto attack
* +2% crit chance
* -25-50% adrenaline cost of weapon specials
Support. Attack was my first 99 and I always loved that skill even though it was underrated because Strength gave higher hits. When the perks for skillcapes was announced I felt really disappointed. It's pretty much useless as a cape, but damn it looks good!
