Well, you get your level +5.

  Your stats can go higher than 30, your maximum intrinsic stat is
still capped.  Why not fix the bonus after 30?  So bonus(29-->30)=
bonus(30-->31)?  If we do this, though, we really DO have to make
it cost 72 potions to get to +6<stat>, not 12 potions in steps of 2.

Under this system I cannot see anyone getting his stats much above
40 no matter what he does.  You can get a wizard to int 29 with Rings of
High Magic and a Helm of brilliance.  30 with Beelzebub's sword.
To get to int 40 would require a sword +11, or
242 int potions.  To get to 41 would require, +12.... 40 odd more potions.
