Damage mitigation question for solo dungeon runs/vma

Setup:
5 pc julianos, 1 heavy, 1 med, 3 light, all body, all divines, all max mag ench.
4 piece Magnus, 2 light, body and max mag, double inferno, infused, 1 fire, 1 absorb mag.
Willpower jewelry, 2 arcane, 1 healthy all spell dmg.
Attributes: all mag
Food: longfin w/melon sauce (I know there's better just what I can do now)
Altmer
Stage 4 vamp.
So my resists sit around 17.6k spell and 9.6k physical. I'm clearing dungeons like arx1 and fg1 and CoA1 but CoA's scamps and archers really give me a run for my money. My damage is fine and the trash mobs melt but only barely before I do. Funnily the bosses do less damage to me than the damn archers which leads me to think it's the phys. resist that's the problem.
I have mother's sorrow farmed and only need a few more bsw to move the build forward but what can I do to feel less squishy in the mean time?

✭✭✭✭✭My Pet Sorc sits at around 14k-ish resistances for both spell and physical. That's with 5 light + 2 heavy (monster).
I have no particular problems in vMA (besides stupid mechanics) or vCoA1.
No vamp though, so fire doesn't really hurt that much.

I know vamp is part of it with the scamps but the flame atronachs are no problem lol. The archers concern me more. Maybe more cp into direct damage mitigation?"It is a lovely language, but it takes a very long time saying anything in it, because we do not say anything in it, unless it is worth taking a long time to say, and to listen to." - Treebeard0 -
md3788✭✭✭You didn’t mention your class, but most have access to major ward. Try to keep that up 100% or use shields when incoming damage is high. If you don’t want to get it from a skill, use mighty chudan monster setEdited by md3788 on December 1, 2018 12:44PMvFG1 HM0

Matthros✭✭✭If your a DK then wings especially the reflective plate morph helps deal with the ranged enemies and the snare removal helps a ton to stay mobile. On my Mag DK I use wings, spiked armor, and harness magicka for my mitigation.0
