In Acension and in certain other expansions such as Creatures of the Anathema some creature or individuals will have skill levels of sometimess 100+. Now does this mean that if a creature has say 100 it gets an instant success unless you penalise it to bellow 100. I am just wondering if a above or equal 100 score means instant success. I imagine the GM would have to penalise the person or player.

I'm really not sure. I have not seen scores that high yet.

Yes, it would mean an automatic success. Opposed tests between such individuals would likely come down to DoS, and God-Empeeor help you if you're facing off against this without such a high score of your own.
The only exceptions I can think of are situational modifiers bringing the success probability to less than 100, and shooting attempts, where a gun will always jam on ~90-100 (depending on weapon etc). Even on a best-quality weapon, I believe a "jam" becomes a miss instead since they are impossible to jam.
I was wondering, when something has a unatural ability like un natural grace. Does that mean that its normal agility is say 30 but it's skill bonus is 6? where would you use this?
Initiative. Eldar with Unnatural Agility and that initiative-doubling talent are usually "1d10+ I Go First" as long as the cell hasn't ascended.
this also affects the DoS for any agility based test.

Heh, I know what you mean. We have an assassin in our group who "suffered" Unnatural Agility x2 as a mutation. His initiative is something akin to 1d10+23.
