OK, that means everyone's equally screwed. :-)
What I mean is this: let's say you have a 17 affinity and you want to boost a combat ability before a fight. Sure, if you're feeling lucky you can try for a +4. But if you don't want to risk wasting your effort you'll settle for +2 or maybe even only +1. Of course, how efficient that is depends on how high your starting ability and the competing ability are.
