The natives had deadly accuracy and could let off huge volleys in the time it took you to reload after getting off one shot that might have killed one native. And god help you if you're anywhere swampy and wet and you're trying to scare people with your arquebus. Armor is useless against these arrows too.

However, the natives tend to only carry at most 30 arrows each. No one can be bothered to sit around and make (and carry around) more than about 30 arrows. Many will have no more than a dozen. Fatal flaw. Once they are out of arrows you can chase them down on horses
