At max level (48?) and difficulty x6 the only real difficulty is how long the final boss takes to take down. Not sure why you would need anything other than the bow after difficulty x3 cause the double shot along with 55% chance to crit and the same DMG as the top sword there really is no point of engaging in melee combat at all. The freezing problems were real but the after 3 hours of playing and beating the game I'm bored. I can just sit there and run the slots until I either run outta money or max my stats out. At 14 per spin and 21000+ gold I like the odds of becoming a god.
