I should qualify my statement: 10k damage was to lower level monsters with negligible magic resistance, and involved 2 spells (level 15 fireball followed by level 15 magic blast), with maxed-out destruction and maxed-out 'way of the battlemage' currently active. And all my equipment was chosen for +magic damage, as well as using a couple of gems for an extra +200 damage on my two weapons. And I only had 700 health (including the +400 health enchants across my 4 armour pieces).
What's more, I had minimal dexterity and strength, so my resistances were rubbish. In fact, the only reason I made it through the game is that I could kill most monsters before they could touch me...
The easiest way to make it harder is to get naked and use your fist...lol
That would work!
