I only got the upgrade magical weapons smithing perk since theres really no need for me to make anything, i just use what i find and buy and upgrade it the best i can without the extra perk bonuses, and the game is still really easy... and i've played on Master Difficulty since char creation screen at the beginning.

I still die on rare occasions when several 'highlevel' mage-type enemies come at once, or when im just not paying enough attention and get sloppy :P

Overall i'm a little disappointed with the difficulty levels, i mean they have 5(?) levels of it, so i expected the highest one to be more challenging.

I imagine if i perk'd up Enchanting and filled out the smithing tree, it would just be ridiculously easy >_>
