Skill levels of 100%+ cause no problems whatsoever in our games, we use the following rules
1. Rolls of 96-99 are always failure and 00 always fumble regardless of skill level.
2. "Feinting", anyone can drop up to half their skill level in an opposed test and drop their opponents defense by the same amount.
This means that guys with 125% broadsword could drop their skill to say 90% thus dropping their opponents parry by 35%. We call it "feinting" because it is mostly used in combat, but we also allow its use in any other contested roll so for example stealth vs listen, etc.
