The overhaul makes stuff impossible. I can hardly kill anything because conjurers require me to break them up and charge them with at least three health potions. Bandits are fairly easy now that I am level two and have steel armor/dwemer mace/a million other weapons.
I also stole some amazon armor by luring the wearer into some guards, a black bow by playing hit and run on a maurader vs black bow bandit dungeon and luring some guys out, also using guards for one or two.
One conjurer followed me for at least two miles, to a bandit-held house, killed both the bandits, then stayed on the first floor and summoned scamps constantly. I thought she was going to run out of mana, so I took down a few, after the fourth or so I got tired of this and charged her. She slipped away(NPCs are fast little things) to the attic, where I charged her again, then she went into the bedroom on the second floor that I had originally occupied. This is where I got her into a corner and just kept hitting her until she died. That was how I lost the last of my healing potions. Note that the black bow bandits and crap came AFTER this, so I had to do them especially carefully.

Traps will one-hit you too. You have to be really careful or you'll lose a lot of progress to a swinging ball.
