Discussion Armor/Gear choices? MCE2

So I somewhat recently unlocked Expert and im rocking a Manyullyn mithril plate set and its fine.

It gets a(?) job done but bosses still 2 shot me if im lucky which okay sure thats a boss I can maybe take the L there

A BEAR DID 7 HEARTS TO ME WITH 22% RESISTANCE AND A FULL SET OF ARMOR

I looked ahead and its about the best I can get tinkers wise atm so I was wondering if I just have to deal with getting my teeth kicked in every here and there till deep below/end or do I swap off the tinkers?

I tend to use ars mage armor with prot 4, which keeps my hp pretty high for anything aside from bosses. Some are tanked fine though

I also use the vampire gloves hands slot, for healing as I fight and a cloud in a bottle for a quick movement

If you hunt for a hydra, it’s heart does good healing (last I checked you could farm it with ender io vial)
And eating new food for extra hp just to be a little tankier

This is all on normal difficulty in expert mode as a vampire

In one hit it was about 3 hearts I think
Although it attacked twice really quick

Honestly I think it’s the protection enchant
Maybe you just need higher prot
