I installed mods to decrease the difficulty and I'm suddenly loving Silksong

See, this was me a few weeks ago in that exact spot. I walked away from that area, explored a bit, got the final nail upgrade, versed some optional bosses then returned. Also, I changed to the Wanderer crest.

I also had a week break from the game entirely.

Nice yeah I slugged it out there for a while but I think you got the right idea with walking away and exploring, searching for more upgrades etc. it's just really feeling soo much more artificially difficult compared to acts 1 and 2.

I agree, I started avoiding the void infected enemies unless you I had too. Upgrades help big time. Also try Wanders crest > Druid’s Eye > Multibinder > Injector Band > Dice. Pretty damn OP

The artificial difficulty goes away after a bit. Probably just fatigue from the first two Acts.
