Yeah, having way to high stats does unbalance the game. I just read in a thread somewhere that according to 2e edition AD&D the average human should have 8's for his stats. Anything higher is a bonus.
Taking this into account, you can allready make godlike chars without tomes or other enhancements. Just by rolling you can get several 18's and a couple 15's to go with that. The highest I've ever rolled was a total of 95 points. Compare this to a PnP char and you are a god!
And if you then slap on some more stat increases during the game you become totally overpowered. Chars in AD&D just aren't meant to have such high stats, because life is supposed to be tough.
Btw, I do rememder that post with the all 25 char. I can't believe somebody actually plays a char like that... Or was he just joking? Oh well, to each his own.
