Staff's 2handed weapons do offer a +1 to an attribute for casters, so either its a wand/focus or staff: still 20%
Warriors can get a +18 due to +1 sword/hammer/axe mastery and a +1 mastery shield.(usally golden only I personally have gotton a +sword and a +str % on a golden shield, others smite/curse/blood)

the BASE skill max for any class though, is 16.
Dumeka
Actually its maximum 16 for everyone.
All the other things that are mentioned above are temporary buffs that are not used in most of the cases because of their temporary value.

Well, the OP was quoting the 20% chance for part of his calculations, so why not go all out? /shrug
Man With No Name
Warriors can reach 21 in their attribute -- but more often 20
16 ( 12 + 3 + 1 ) + Critical Hit ( +4 ) + +1 Axe Mastery (20% chance)
It's quite funny, the number of people that don't observe the 100% critical chance rule on the PvP side. When hitting to the back of a running opponent, expect to critical. Strafe side-to-side, walk backwards -- but don't expose your back to a Warrior when he's charged up...
We're talking +50 bonus damage from Eviscerate @ 20 compared to +42 @ 16
16 ( 12 + 3 + 1 ) + Critical Hit ( +4 ) + +1 Axe Mastery (20% chance)

mortalis doleo
the ranger traps are great as they are.
in pvp and pve, damage is only part of the killer...
you get the enemy blinded, crippled, on flame and bleeding (knocked down too...)
that means high (yes, high) damage, a huge health degen and shutdown for warriors and runningg foes. dont forget the interrupts...
yep... nothing wrong with traps...

Shattered Self
The health penalty is only a problem if you're using sacrificial spells, anyway. Level 18 Life Transfer, Vampiric Gaze, and Shadow Strike will make quite a dent in almost anyone.

Granted Awaken can be removed, but Necros can run at 18/19 semi-permanently.
