Just going to step in to say that "overpowered, balanced, nerfed" are about as subjective as art is. One persons broken is another groups too weak option to take. That is a "strength" of RPG's not a bug.
If your group wants a feat to work a specific way you could change the feat in the editor to give a Skill and HP each level. Letting you to choose your FCB option in addition to those bonuses.
If you don't want to change the feat in the editor then you could choose the FCB option and use Adjustments on the
Adjust tab to give the bonus Skill point and HP (if I understand the issue correctly).
