Never run away from a cold nova if you cant dodge it fully

It has a NHD of 4 frames.

By staying in its aoe constantly, you will get hit again every 4 frames (or 5 i guess?)

use your potions... you had 200+ missing health when you engaged. hc characters should never sit on below max health, you're asking to die. that extra 200 health might have given you enough time to reflex a juv and survive. but obviously the best advice is to just not get hit by predictable death animations like CE and FE.

Playing HC with low resists for some reason?

Resists should have been really low for this to happen anyways.

3 tapped. 952-585-1-0. while others noted don't run from nova, also don't walk around at less than full and don't stand near the enemy longer than you need to. the hc motto is play like a bitch because yolo.

Wow, good eye. Did not see it hit 1 as well.

Never run away from a laser beam always run through it. Geometrically if you run through a laser beam that means the laser beam will penetrate you for the least amount of time and duration.

Doors are deceptive, you put yourself in the corner to avoid projectiles coming through the doorway but had no exit that could avoid the nova. In that situation back out through the first doorway and force them to come through.

Took me forever to see what happened kept watching the merc thinking they were tanking the lightning

doors and corners are where they get you

Looks like there was an archer at the doorway.

Also running removes your defense from the to hit formula so everything can hit you if you are in animation range and block is set to 1/3 of its value

So it can be very important to keep it in mind when playing HC.
