How far are you into the game? It is harder in the beginning indeed because of the lack of ressources available for healing.

First tip, collect every food items on the map. Go across the entire map and collect everything so you can heal while resting.

Characters positionning prior to combat is very important. Use the terrain to your advantage so you don't get surrounded. Use narrow passages that prevent enemies to attack with more than 2-3 mob at a time. Your range attackers and casters should stay behind and should rarely take any damage.

Have clear plans and different roles for every character and companions. (healer and support, tank, range attackers, melee attackers etc.)

Having one character built around Stealth is primordial imho. Select this one as leader when you walk the map sneaking, you can avoid many fights or have advantage prior to fights.

Don't waste arrows. If you think your melee attackers can handle the fight, let the range attackers standing by.

The way my crew is built, the 3 range damage dealers do not receive any damage at all !! They are always backed to the wall at the corner of a room, behind Roland and Driina and my Rogue.

This game is pretty complicated, so we can't just easily point out what you are doing wrong, because it could be a hundred different things. But the guy above has covered a good amount of stuff. Stealth enter combat, craft food and potions, good party composition and builds.

If your first character can do some healing and combat, it makes the beginning much easier.

Its just "hard" i think. im playing on easy with Heal after combat. played the first hour like 4 times with different recommended builds and its the same each time.

Can always go custom difficulty, honestly custom difficulties are my favorite in games. For my first game I'm going 1 ability reroll, everything else 0 rerolls, no miss insurance, and encumbrance off.

Like a lot of CRPGs, I think the beginning is the hardest. You just don't have much in the way of resources, gear, or abilities. So if you aren't careful with positioning or preparation (not something that's going to be automatic for new players) there's just not much room for error during encounters or options to tip the scales back in your favor.

Once you build a full party and get a few levels under everyone's belt it becomes MUCH easier.

Right on, i wanted to play as a battlemage, but read they are weak,

The key is to have a mix of pure melee and pure range/casters. I think my Bow ranger and my two mage haven't suffered a single hit during the entire game except for the final battle.
