Yea, that's what I was testing.  I thought about it for a few seconds and realized the only values we couldn't hit were prime numbers.  So the problem only manifests itself for about 20% of the values from 10-100, however we only allow one independent variable as someone can't apply less or more skill to a problem.  That's the rub I'm pondering at the moment.

I think we should allow people to apply less skill than they have. Otherwise a grandmaster couldn't cast the most simple spells without overkill, could he? Hm, with energy one maybe. Still, he'd have the problem of really big jumps.

The easiest solution might be to allow fractional energy.
