the key is always balance.   Equal experienced characters should have  
an equal chance of surviving a confrontation.

If they shun channelling, I would think the cost would be higher, but  
that is nit-picking.   Any drop in one skill cost should raise  
another.   If I recall, there is a balance formula based on skill cost.
