Are we just unlucky ... ? or just crap at this game ...?
So ... we die in the swamp .... rescue our stuff. Then we get killled by the mosquito trying to escape the swamp which is next to the plaines .... then we get bk on the boat, only to hit a storm in the ocean in the pitch black and die again in the swamp. (boat trashed) We then build another boat to go bk to the boat that got trashed to recover our stuff and all the iron ... only to die again in the middle of the ocean to a sea serphant !!!! Seriously this game is Sooooooooooooo frustrating ... i think i'm giving up lol !! Sry needed to rant here

If you sank in shallows along the shoreline, that might be possible. we will be bk to retrieve our stuff with another boat ... hopefully !
However, if you were out at sea and in deep ocean, then you'll just have to write it off as a loss, sorry.

The stuff from the boat will appear floating in a crate - you can retrieve it! EDIT: thank you electricdawn for correcting me, your tombstone floats, so you can get back the stuff on your person, too.

Tombstones float. You can get all your stuff back.
First advice: Don't go out at night. If night hits you, call it a day and seek safety. DON'T do corpse runs at night! Sleep it over in safety, and try next morning.
That's one of the lessons you learn the hard way.

Bonemass location was long way away from our camp, but loads of crypts there for iron.
Our temp base in swamp & portal got destroyed. We had good armour & iron weapons and yes squitos were killed with bow.
We were on our way bk with all our iron .... which is now at sea with our bodies lol ..
Thanks for replies & advice here ;)
we will be bk to retrieve our stuff with another boat ... hopefully !

I mean there is bad luck, but some of it is you.
if you got a swamp near a plains, find another swamp or give that border a wide no - go zone if its big enough to be save on another edge.
boating at night is high risk -- best to park if you are lost/ disoriented/never been there b4.
squito and serpent are easy bow kills, no one had a bow? The serpent takes a few hits but it can just barely catch a karve and hit it once for every 5 or so shots you put into it. The damage should be minimal.
This game requires you to be cautious and punishes you when not, even in best gear carelessness (no food, weak armor, whatever) will burn you.

Every area on the map gets more dangerous at night. Start exploring at the crack of dawn, and return to base at night. Day time doesn't matter in a dungeon, so they're nice places to relax at night.
Explore Black forest dungeons for red cubes, use them to build portals. Be VERY aggressive with portal use, generally use them any time you land a ship or find a good landmark. Red cubes can be tough to collect, keep an eye out and set up shop next to fire pillars in the swamp.

It happens! Generally, you can outrun and escape serpents if you get a tailwind. Probably makes sense to give the plains a wide berth to avoid the deathsquito issue until you have better armor and food. The game definitely doesn't play well as a race to the end. There are lots of setbacks, and handling them is part of the experience.

Why did you think escaping from the Swamp to the Plains would be a safe bet? So ... we die in the swamp .... rescue our stuff. Then we get killled by the mosquito trying to escape the swamp which is next to the plaines .... then we get bk on the boat, only to hit a storm in the ocean in the pitch black and die again in the swamp. (boat trashed) We then build another boat to go bk to the boat that got trashed to recover our stuff and all the iron ... only to die again in the middle of the ocean to a sea serphant !!!! Seriously this game is Sooooooooooooo frustrating ... i think i'm giving up lol !! Sry needed to rant here![]()
Why are you sailing at night?
Why were you in the Swamp or Plains at night?
It appears to be the latter, but that's okay as long as you learn from your mistakes ;) Are we just unlucky ... ? or just crap at this game ...?
Nice rant though!

It sounds like you might be doing some of these recovery runs at night.

The sea serpent was unlucky. They're pretty rare.
The rest sounds pretty normal. Mosquitoes are death incarnate if you aren't ready for them. Use a shield on them, or shoot them from far way.

Or if you're up to hunting abominations, use root armor. Try not to get set on fire tho.
