How about making BLUDTOPOWA only work if your HP is at max, a la Exhaustion, but removing the penalty?
An idea for making burning less overpowered at low levels - when you kill a monster with burning, or trigger burning damage by attacking a different monster, you also receive damage in the amount of burning that was applied to the monster. I.e., monster has 16 burning and you kill it, or attack another monster, you also take 16 damage. Makes burning trickier to use at low levels and less of a no brainer combo with BLUDTOPOWA. And it makes some amount of sense in that it's dangerous to play with fire. You could then up the cap back to 3x per monster level, too, which would now be both a plus and a minus (since it increases the amount of burning damage you can receive).
