I'll respond to your 2nd question since I don't think it was directed at an individual.

Using a perma-enchanted weapon can be a great idea, but it isn't always going to be the strongest, despite sometimes having higher combined damage than a pure strength weapon. It depends on the enemy.

Say you have a stength weapon that does 1,000 physical damage, and an enchanted one that does 600 physical and 600 magick, for a total o 1,200 damage. Now say you're fighting an enemy with 300 physical damage resisitance and 300 magic resistance. Your strength weapon would be getting 700 damage through, while the split damage of your enchanted weapon would be causing 300 phys and 300 magic, for a total of 600.

This is a big oversimplification, but you get the idea. Someone made a good post on this concept a while ago but I don't remember where it was.
