Stat inflation in Decks of Destiny

[hcobb]

The lack of non-fighter hero cards maxes out heroes to 38 attribute points when applying some modifier cards.

First the fighters are all 34 point characters to begin with: ST + DX which total to 24 plus the note that "In a Wizard game, increase IQs to 10."

Then play the Master Physicker card and the simple fighter is now 24 points of ST + DX added to IQ 14 is 38 attribute points, a 2300 XP character, or more depending on the order of adding those attributes WRT talent costs.

How are 32 point wizards expected to keep up?
