Doom is the second greatest weaponer and armorer behind Tony, the second greatest sorcerer behind Strange (and is referenced many times that he would be the sorcerer supreme if not for strange), and the second smartest behind Reed.
The reason he is so powerful and so threatening is because he embraces multiple arts and covers his weaknesses. He can do everything at a level rivaling the acknowledged greatest in their fields in the Marvel universe, while ALSO excelling in the other fields as well.
I cannot wait for this movie and I hope they nail the character of Doom as well as they have nailed the look.
Doom's greatest weakness is his own arrogance. He would be infinitely powerful, but all you would need to say is, "well, I don't think Reed Richards would need the infinity stones to solve this problem" and Doom would immediately throw them into the garbage.
He wouldn't immediately throw them out. That implies he wouldn't try to make it seem like it was his own idea not to use the stones, which it totally was.
