Unless the other characters are packing ultra-tech weapons or armor, it’s drastically unfair.
That is one of the concerns I have. I'm playing with the numbers a little bit, but I haven't found something which seems to quite fit.

I'd like to limit it more, but I don't want to limit it so much that it's no longer worth it.
