>For the real minmax afficionado, you can put your Avatar skill at 51% so that it's vaguely reliable, and leave your Adept skill at 19%. That's pretty sad, but since it's your obsession skill it's effectively much higher. (I think there's some kind of mathematical law of diminishing returns on obsession as the skill rises... I knew this once... It works out that the obsession bonus is zero at 99% skill, but it's effectively something like +20% at 19% skill. Any smart math types wanna correct me?)
The return on obsession increases as you approach 50%, then drops off, IIRC. For 19%, you only get a bonus of 8% (ie, 1-19 + 21, 31, 41, 51, 61, 71, 81, 91). The actual values are kinda funky, which I had a big chart showing once, but never computerized it.
