Yeah I'm forcing myself to play without using any of the +10/20/30/40/50 dmg weapons as they make the game waaaaay too easy even on hard. Every merchant has at least a few of them. They also make every other kind of enchantment (leech/poison/fire/etc.) totally pointless. Anyway it's pretty challenging and you have to chug potions/use skills etc.

Also on a related overpowered stuff note, is mana leech supposed to start at 80% trigger chance? My char is now pretty much always at full mana with a single rank in that skill. Feels almost like cheating.
