Basically, if I wear something (or get a twist of fate) that gives +1 to might abilities does that give me more of a bonus on any given ability than I would have for maxing it out?
Does an ability bonus go beyond the maximum listed

Skills can go over their max, but only by two points. If you have +3 to might, your maxed skills will only be two over their max, not three.
Some of the skills will only go 1 over max. This includes the might harpoon spell.
The weapon skills that provide new moves will not go over max. Unlike other skills which provide an increasing bonus at each level, like increased greatsword damage, these skills provide a distinct bonus at each level, and there's nothing extra to add at level 4.
