So I enabled the god mode and wow they kept me form swinging back as they hit me and my stamina drops like rain fall. No stam can not hit back. My sword skill was at 66 now down to 54. I find it hard to kill the multiple mobs even being in god mode.

What are you folks doing to make it in and out alive? I while in god mod got a suit of iron armor and iron sword and tried with the same results just getting mobbed by multiple enemies that just pummel my hps and stam down to nothing.

I cant run away most the time as the terrain prevents that. I have watch some YouTube videos but nothing seems to help.

The Hoe is your best friend, flattern the terrain.
Built here and there some workbenches, maybe on trees, to prevent them from spawning.

What I did is, i installed this mod to make it even more difficult.
