In comparing the capes, it seems that there is very little difference between the T8 and T4. The slightly shorter cooldown on the main passive is virtually negligible and even the stat bonus is pretty meager. For example on the Lymhurst Cape the difference in max energy between the 4.2 and the 8.2 is 10 energy which is like +4% max energy, basically meaningless. And the cost difference is huge. The 4.2 Lymhurst is currently about 100K silver and the 8.2 costs 2.5 million.
So, why bother with the high tier capes?
