you're using the wrong skill setup m8, I was getting mercd like a squishy sponge until I started my full frost build, spellbook v sword, double down on blizzard, disengage by sheathing weapons to run faster, use the shield spell as soon as you notice ppl, aoe spam Blizzard then engage them in the middle of the storm. frost v storm is also good, shield and blizzard with blink and thunderstrike. you're looking for near far near far on skillset with hit and run or spam aoe tactics.

skill issue

blud not have strategy just push through the the enemy, if you stuck fight with the Loong range enemy, just play them around like on corner or jump and Crouch and push toward them but you have to make sure he alone that the basic strategy Lil blud, thanks me later

listen to me, calm down. take a breather, it's okay to run away if you're losing, i lost to a long range too because i was chasing him, you know what i learned? that i can just run away and disengage, my loot is more important than my ego. the objective of the game is to extract out and get your loot, if you stay focused on your ego and try to kill everybody, you're going to lose. you're not the god of this game that have god-mode on, you will die and that's just the part of it.
