Why is my combat so difficult?

[xXFoxXx]

I have about 100 mods, but as far as I'm aware, really only 3 which affect combat. Those being wildcat, simildon, and combat evolved. I have a few other mods which affect distance of swings and bow mechanics, but they shouldn't affect damage as far as I'm aware. I really just want a realistic fight, but what I've encountered is nothing but frustration. I decimate regular bandits in 1-3 hits even at level 1, while bandit outlaws take 15 or so hits, regardless of their armor, making it incredibly difficult to take on multiple enemies. I just made a new save and couldn't get past the beginning escape run where you have to kill the spiders without cheating in console. It was literally impossible, they just did too much damage and I did too little. I've tried disabling some of these mods while keeping others enabled and haven't had any success, infact nothing really seems to change.

 

I've used LOOT to make sure they're arranged properly and based off the descriptions for the aforementioned 3 combat mods, I've come to believe that I have some other mod that ruins combat or something. The idea of wildcat is awesome to me, my opponent and me take huge damage and everything is realistic and people die in just a few hits, unfortunately I don't have that, I have some wonky feature where any enemy who isn't the lowest of the low is some huge sponge and it's literally impossible for me to beat creatures like spiders without cheating.

 

Here's my mod list, any help would be much appreciated. I play on SSE, if you know of any mods that might fix this, I'll definitely try them, thanks in advance.
