you could wait a couple levels for better armor, but to be honest they are still going to hurt, and it will get worse. I always attacked the aggro mobs and ignored the others, the aggros will be coming for you sooner or later anyways.

Make sure that you aren't alone in a room (2 per bug room is usually perfect) and don't be afraid to run if you are getting mobbed, esp by a giant (you can pull them to hallways too).

I actually had a conversation with him yesterday. Was stalling at the entrance and I got answers in the stall like ? and ?.

Not a very talkative guy. Guess he felt guilty of what he is doing.

Caves are tough for the first few levels. Vigors for the win.

I died alot until after the power earth ghost quests (63/64) but after that things got easier.

Occasionally, I still die, if I get too many Nachal giant / champion / devils packed on me.

And Im 70, and eight of my 10 gears are +5.

I don't die at Yacha (they are str, I am str) but the stun effect slows the SP income, and they take 3 moves instead of 2.

Best thing is having 2 in the bug room. That eases some of the deaths. 3 is too many though, and aggravating.

Welcome to hell .... err... I mean... Welcome to the caves.

I am running JM policy. Can only add the ones who get caught by me.

Even for a str bugs are nasty at 62. The agro ones are 63 and in that crowded area it is easy to get mobbed.

if you dont have ice you might want to lvl that to 60 , get the passive/defense buffs and frost nova woods. Ice will help you early on in the cave if you panic when thers no where to run
