Although you need patches for Smilodon and Wildcat Immersive Movement if you want more realistic and sometimes more challenging movement for you and your enemies. Also side note I'm pretty there's also a nightmare version of this mod If you want higher level enemies then Arena makes sure most enemies are at or above your level. Smilodon and Wildcat are great combat overhauls that enhances AI combat mechanics with the difference between the two is that Smilodon is like a lite version of Wildcat Vanilla and modded skyrim will both be easy probably more so with more Perks and spells at the players disposal so here's some xbox mods that makes the game genuinely more difficult

Basically try to handicap yourself as much as possible, and the game quickly balances itself out. Ordinator is balanced in the same way - if you pick a handful of skills and just perk things out appropriately, you won't be terribly OP until later levels but at that point you are essentially a walking demi-god so I don't really mind it as much. I find the best way to balance Skyrim is not really by adding mods, but by creating a roleplay-based character who is built realistically in the confines of the game and not indulging in the power game fantasy Skyrim can be. not adding additional mods that have seemingly become "essential" but just make you OP - Skyshards, More Perk Points Per Level, things like that.limiting yourself to ~6 skills in total, so you can't bust out magic or a bow or a warhammer when convenient but rather sticking to a relatively confined playstyle.not grinding all three crafting skills, sticking with one or two at the most and really only perking out one.This doesn't mean just adding on difficulty mods, but it means doing things a lot of people don't like to do: I think Skyrim, with and without Ordinator, require the player to balance the game for themselves, and I don't think most people do that.
