It's amazing that everyone here is quick to defend a flaw in a game, or quick to tell me I'm not allowed to find something boring due to a flaw in a game.
It's not so much that we're defending the unbalanced Chameleon spell as it is us criticizing you for exploiting it (at 130%, no less) and then proceeding to complain about the game being too easy.
But let's look at "balancing" the spell. As it stands, the spell renders you completely invisible at 100% while still being able to interact with objects and characters. So, how do we balance this out?
1) Make the player visible when he interacts with something.
2) Make the spell non-enchantable for constant effect.
3) Not let the spell stack up so players can't enchant multiple pieces of armor/items to reach 100%+ Chameleon.
Options 1 and 2 already apply to Invisibility. Option 3 would indeed solve your dilemma but tons of powerplayers would cry out and petition against Bethesda. So it seems like there is no plausible way to balance Chameleon. It is simply an inherently unbalanced spell (as it was in Morrowind). Thus, according to your logic, the developers should have never included it in the first place. That way, you wouldn't have been tempted to use it and wouldn't have ruined the game experience for yourself.
Okay. So, the developers included the spell and it's too late to change that. What can you do? Hmm... oh wait, I've got it! DON'T USE IT. Unfortunately, this doesn't seem like an option to you, since your exclusive responsibility is to be entertained regardless of what you do.
"Man, this movie sucks. I can't understand the plot while posting on Bluesnews, chatting with my friend on the phone and playing loud country music. Damn those filmmakers!"
"Yawn... this game is ssooooooo boring. If I get enemies to chase me and then I hop into this remote, hard to reach corner and use a clipping bug to hide behind a large crate, they won't be able to reach me. Then I can just shoot the edge of the hit boxes of their feet and kill them with ease. Damn those developers!"
"Bah! This is the worst racing game ever made! The first tier cars can't even keep up with me when I'm using the fastest car in the game! Horrible design!"
By the way, did you try turning up the difficulty in Oblivion?
