With Reboot:
Adding in a lot of power boost items is ok because the maximum allowed damage will still be limited by how much and for how long players are willing to farm. Having a very high or unlimited cap should probably not be game breaking, at least in theory. (if a player farms for the power, how strong are they allowed to become?)
With a regular server:
Any kind of power boosting needs to be watched very carefully. In addition to Nx being a factor, once power creep starts getting in, there are not a lot of good ways to take it back out again. It gets tricky because part of the ceiling is based on money but that same thing could be a benefit, depending on the player.
