No. Ditch it and get a Searing cape from Turul.

Sell it and hope you can get the same amount for it if not more. You just wasted your money.

Yeah, get searing cape for nukes, and get Goetia cape for sleep, 7 INT is atleast 3.5 macc allways, all the way up to 7 macc with the right dint(very unlikely, but still:P)
It's a nice cape for RDM nukes, but that's pretty much it

ebullient cape for max HP/MP (if you have one)

searing cape for Nukes

goetia mantle for Sleeps and INT enfeebs

cheviot cape or umbra cape for Idle

felicitas cape or vita cape for HMP

I believe neither Hecates or Ixion cape should be in your BLM macros, but to answer your question, depending on the overall gear setup, Hecates would beat Ixion.

Imo Twilight cape will become a fairly common cape for mages subbing /SCH

If you have BLU, it's a decent Charged Whisker cape
