    Interesting. I’m playing on Explorer as well, and I haven’t died once. Mind you, I’m still in Act 1 and I think I’m at level 4 or 5. There are tons of tips/tricks videos on YouTube, some of them around 10 minutes long. The game has a lot of systems and choices to make, and I feel that you can really optimize your combat and builds. However, I don’t think you need to try very hard on the Explorer difficulty (based on my playtime). Maybe you could tell us which class you’re playing and which companions you’re bringing along, so someone might be able to give you more tips

      I am playing as the tiefling barbarian lady and currently my party is shadowheart, gale and the rogue drow. At the camp I have laezel and the blade of frontiers.

      The builds for these characters are not well thought out. When leveling up most of the choices have already been made for me. There are a few options but I have no idea what to choose for them so I pick them almost randomly.

      I will try looking at tips videos.

            I made a Tiefling Sorcerer. You use charisma as your main stat for sorcery it makes you also really good at talking. I head a couple of cases in which I completely avoided fights due to persuasion. Also the sorcerers metamagic is really cool. Allows you to do stuff like increasing spells range or cast a spell twice.
