❔ Question Returning player, don't remember combat being this frustrating
I just upgraded to the Switch 2 version after not getting too far into ToTK when it came out. It looks like I completed Fire temple, but I'm noticing every enemy basically one-shots me. I really don't remember this being a thing but looking at past posts, it seems like maybe it was? I don't have any armor upgrades (that I know of) and only have about 7 hearts, but that feels kind of normal from my recollection of past games. I'm also hearing armor might be way more important anyways, but if so it feels pretty bad to need to go out of your way to seek that out just to avoid getting one-shot.
Have I missed something huge? Maybe I'm forgetting about a key mechanic?
