Maybe i should stop wearing a helmet to bring more challenge : V - Skyrim

Or you could do what I'm doing at the moment. No armour but boots/bracers, no shield, basic 1H sword (currently a fine steel sword, want a Blades sword to better fit with the RP), Adept difficulty.
I expect you'd still flatten everything at Lv.92 though.

I will test it out in a quest that needs lots and lots of fighting, and probably put the difficulty somewhat higher too.

So why did you make a thread about the game being too easy?

After around level 50 enemies stop scaling with you so obviously, things are going to get easier.

... until extra endgame mods and DLC of course.

It seems it was unintended for some enemies, at the very least for Imperial/Stormcloak soldiers. As of the latest Unofficial Skyrim Patch, they scale up with you (don't know until what level), making those fights much more difficult.

I don't much care for helmets, especially the -1 to Charisma. Wait, wrong game. But still though, I look rather dashing with a circlet.

I just avoid oversmithing instead, the problem with Heavy Armor is that there's also the "Matching Set" bonus which is unavoidable if you want the super-awesome, but actually not OP "Reflect Blows" Perk. So if you're wearing a full, matching set, your AR is increased by 50% on top of juggernaut.

Light Armor is a lot more flexible here at least. That's the main reason I use it...

Your armour went down quite a bit what helmet are you using?
