I get there is alot of people that can survive no problem in this game well i cant i suck i cant even beat a damn ladybug. why cant i stand on a rock and pummel it with arrows why is that not an option those who dont suck can walk up and rock it in the face while i sit back and shoot it i love the idea of this game and i wanna play it but i cant progress without asking my friend to kill bugs for me and its getting old.

Only things I can suggest are craft better armor and weapons, learn how to do the perfect block, and make a bunch of fiber bandages and health smoothies. Maybe play on an easier difficulty until you're more used to combat.
