Remember if an 10 as aresult would be good enough to do what the character is
attempting he doesn't even have to roll.  See automatic successes (p83 BNW
Rules).

No your not over reacting.  There needs to be limits.  If he doesn't like the
character make a new class.  But offset the increased power with a mandatory
quirk.

BTW.  My GM and I are working on an archetype whose power is invisability.  I'll
post it when we're done.
