ways and means:
Retribution seems a little potent and not fully described how is the damage dealt is there a roll involved etc.

Prerequisites: Either Evocation, Thaumaturgy, Sponsored Magic or Guide Thy Hand
Attacking you is a dicey proposition for the attacker; anyone who attacks you in melee combat receives the same damage against them.
Upgrades:
The Mark Of Caine [-3]: Big Mistake to attack you. All damage done to you is repaid sevenfold.

I'm not sold on those prerequisites. Why wouldn't the Nevernever's Dire Flaming Porcupine of Death (obviously not being a practitioner of any stripe, nor being a creature of Faith) be able to have this power?
As for Mark of Caine...no. Just no. Just throwing a fist to the gut (calling it a 1 stress hit) of a character with that upgrade would be capable of killing most humans outright (7 stress being comparable to a solid hit from a hunting rifle). Combined with the fact that the combined cost is less than a +0-Catch-ed Mythic Toughness...

Okay, that was just a thought, a massively rough draft. But I'm not hearing anything helpful or constructive out of you guys, either. If that's so broken, then I challenge you to make something that isn't.
Tedronai:
I'd suggest replacing those prerequisites with a simple appropriate aspect, for starters
for the real crunch, though, I'd suggest stress equal to the incoming shifts+1, with further upgrades increasing that linearly, not geometrically
ways and means:
[-2] Refraction Shield- You can use your turn to create a reflective block to protect yourself (roll conviction), if you are attacked and the block is not pierced then the person attacking recives their weapons rating in damage (as if someone had rolled and tied thier defence).
