If anyone one feels the same or has any tips please share.

Thanks

How? Are you not eating food? There's no way they one-shot you in fully upgraded silver armor unless you have zero food in your stomach.

Yeah, you guys had no food buffs. No way deasquitos are dangerous when you're in fully upgraded wolf armor.

Deathsquitos don't need nerfing. You need to pay attention to food. And also : git gud.

full resting buff carrot soup turnip stew and sausages my health is over 120 im in the same armour as you guys and just punch deathsquitos as they fly in one hit kills.

Unless you are running in starving you were getting one shotted in fully upgraded wolf armor. And if you were starving, that's your own fault.
Wolf armor is 82 points of armor vs a 90 point attack. That ends up doing approximately 24 damage per hit.
Meaning even starving it may take 2 hits to kill you. With the worst 3 food buffs you'd have 65 health, taking 3 hits to kill you at max, 45 health and 2 hits to kill you at flashing levels.
With level appropriate food having completed mountains, you would have 170 health at max, taking 6 hits to kill you, or 100 health at flashing levels, so 4 hits to kill you.
This isn't even factoring in blocking which would almost completely negate any damage, putting what goes through in the single digits at most.
(Deathsquitos can't even one shot you in Black Forst level gear)
This is also ignoring the fact you have access to ranged weapons which can easily pick off Deathsquitos before you are in aggro range, or the fact they die from just about any attack, considering they have a whole 10 hp.
So basically your claim doesn't hold at all unless you're rushing in starving, refusing to block, not attacking, and just kinda standing around letting them get free shots on you again and again.

I like coming in threads like these and finding someone who knows a ton about circumventing annoying mechanics like that. It makes those mechanics much easier to deal with. Thank you for the elucidation sir. ^^

At first, I read that as seven hundred and eleven trolls ... that did sound a little excessive ...

Mosquitos are allegic to boats. If you can helm it fast enough youll eventually manage to get away while they try to drink the boats blood. Unfortunately, I wish to report that boats are also allergic to mosquitos.

If you can parry a mosquito though, you can kill it.
Also noteworthy is if you cant parry a mosquito, it will kill you.

Ticklish business, mosquitos are.

I've been hit by one in level 2 troll armor and survived. Barely, but I survived. Keeping health bar up is essential. The constant spawning could stand to be dialed down, though.

Obvious thought would be if you have all 3 food buffs up. Dont think mozzies can one shot you if you are in fully upgraded wolfarmor and decent food. After that its just a single arrow and they are gone, dont even have to fully pull the bow...

I think silver shield is good to block it, or just time the stab to kill it with practically anything. Or take it slow and snipe them with cheap arrows.

I usually do my corpse run with a silver shield and a flint spear. On full stomach and heals available.

They can't. It's like ~30ish dmg on fully upgraded wolf armor, so they eh....5 shot you.

I dislike them a lot more in groups or when sailing, or when already fighting something else.

well then your food must be low on health and stamina boost
