Survivability Help

Sorry to post on the general thread section but the mech section is dead...
Anyways I wanted to know ways to make my mech less squishy.
I currently have decent hb, full reinforced set, full cra set, and a tyrant cape.
I don't know why but even at level 150, mp3 still does like 2-3k damage on me and I usually end up spamming pots.
I don't wanna sacrifice equips because my damage is good and I don't wanna sacrifice that for defense.
Any help appreciated!

Character cards add HP, battlemage character card reduces the damage you take as well. Kaiser is a great link skill for survivability (10% hp). Cannoneer also has a link skill that increases hp, but also all stats. There are a few more ways as well, but I got 2 hours of sleep so I'm gonna go take a nap now.

Buy a potion pot and spam the hell out of it and grind stress free.

You'd think being in a metal tank would give you good defense right? Yeah, no. Mechs break like eggs.

The easiest and cheapest way to solve this is simply to buy a pet+auto HP.

The expensive way is to get so godly that you have basically max defense and tons of % HP potentials.

The smart way is to change how you're playing your Mech.

Mechs are not supposed to be hit all that often. You have a long range laser for a reason. If you find yourself being swarmed by mobs, then you're doing something wrong.

Mechs prefer to sit in one spot and spam their laser. This means you need to learn how to position yourself so you can hit the enemy and they can't hit back. Good usage of portals and dash will help you with covering a map, but you need to understand that Mechs are not designed for running all over the map. They are, in essence, really clumsy and slow glass cannons with barely above average damage.

I'm a corsair with around 50k HP when buffed. They're pretty similar to mechs I guess? RA set effect gives 10% HP + 1k HP. Superior Gollux will give you 1.5k Hp + 13% HP. Once you have all the gollux rings enhanced, you should get like 500-600hp? Boss daily for willpower. Max willpower is 2k hp. Level 2 BT link is 4% Hp. Level 2 Cannoneer link is 10% hp. Level 2 Kaiser link is 15% HP.

This will give you at least 5k HP and 53% HP.

I could have sworn now that when you get better equips for damage they usually come with copious amounts of defense.
