Default [Magic] Boosting Amulet/Talisman

Hi all,

I was reading up on Enchanting in general and stumbled over Amulet and Talisman.
At first glance, I thought they were quite useful, but then I realized that I need to know all the spells I want to protect myself against. That makes it quite a big point investment, but also, more importantly, prevents my Yrth-based mage protecting himself against Necromancy.

Similarly, to protect himself against battle mages, my mage would need to be an accomplished battle mage himself, no?

So that got me thinking. Could those (and possibly Counterspell, too) be boosted a bit without completely breaking everything?

I was thinking that perhaps it would be possible to create talismans that protect against a college (e.g. Necromancy). There would need to be a skill penalty or a greatly increased energy cost, but I'm not quite sure how best to do it or if there are good reasons not to do it.
