They didn't make it a flat 60 seconds, as otherwise all the smn mules that everyone took to do ADL would never even have to buy/earn a single spirit/avatar since 0 skill would give them 60 sec. I'd have settled for 500 skill cap for 60 sec though as then a SMN would at least need to skill up/buy gear to hit cap.
