not everyone can react fast enough from deathsquitoes. 2 hits is all it takes to finish you off in full troll armour. One hit and that will put you in defensive move. You can't outrun them. Either you're luck to carry core woods with you and put up stake walls fast enough or you hit them fast. I usually end up dying when they sneak attack

As someone else pointed out you are invincible during the roll animation. But i never use that. I just draw my bow and wait until they make their approach. BOOM one shot. Don't need fast reflexes.
