Normal damage is:
(ATK - DEF/2) * (STR+20)/20
In other words, if the player and enemy have equal ATK/DEF, you'll do about half that damage, multiplied by one-twentieth of your strength... approximately.
In still other words, if you have 100 ATK versus the enemy's 100 DEF, and you have 100 STR, you'll do 50 "base" damage, time six ((100+20)/20), so around 300.
The way skills power work is it adds to your ATK; so if you have a skill with 100 power, and 100 ATK factor, it'll add 100 to 100% of your ATK.
I hope this makes sense.
As for number of monsters in the area, that totally depends on everything else. How strong skills are versus the cost, how cheap you make healing items, etc. The only real advice anyone can give you there is to decide how strong you want your monsters and players, and then actually run through the dungeon and see if it's as hard as you want, too hard, too easy, etc.
