[1.2.323] (2) Moar Skill Balancing

Here's something I noticed:

For Pirates, Hypnotize's success rate was changed from 100% to 94%. This is a very, very strange change. I can only attribute it to Combat Orders. The formula for the success rate is 34+3*x where X is equal to the current level of the skill. Now, if you get a +2 increase with combat orders, that would put the success rate at 100% but also increase beyond the maxLevel of the skill. So am I reading the skill description of Combat Orders wrong? Perhaps it can go beyond the maxLevel. Otherwise, this change is beyond stupid since no one really uses Hypnotize anyway.
