IIRC, newer versions use the (much more reasonable, IMO) rate of one boost every 1.5M XP, only giving Valen her most powerful claws at 6M XP, a fairly typical level at the end of TOB.
(Personally, I wouldn't mind seeing it stretched out even a little more, especially towards the end...something like
+2 - 1,500,000 XP
+3 - 3,333,333 XP
+4 - 5,500,000 XP
+5 - 8,000,000 XP
...meaning that Valen would end the typical game as "merely" an Eminent vampire, and only reach Matriarch status when maxed out.)
