Yeah, I know full dex birds are squishier than squish, but it seems I'm always dying when fighting mobs in Mt. Fang. I kite, spam attacks, try to stay behind bears but I still die. Then when I'm fighting bosses, I spam pots like no tomorrow. I'm starting to lose money now lol! Sometimes, when soloing, I bite off more than I can chew, so I deserve those deaths, but otherwise, I just frustrated at dying because it feels no other birds are.
Currently I'm lvl 62, using the lvl 61 Chiroptera set from the plat store. I noticed my dodge is horrible, but the sanguine doesn't seem much better in that department either.

I suppose by now that the pot burn is part of being a squishy, but are there any other tips to stay alive(besides elixirs)?
