thank you for playing and writing!
the game is ideally balanced for ARPG veterans (or at least that what i tell myself). it's understandable for people who don't play Diabloclones to have issues like this - sometimes RNG is also not in your favor. consider using combat arts to try and tackle what you're having difficulties with. if ranged enemies are giving you trouble, equip a shield and reflect their projectiles or block melee attacks, and so on.
thanks again for playing! magic builds might be a lil' tougher, but it depends on what you're comfortable with.
