Explanation

Molaktula gatekeeper dealing immense damage out of nowhere after significant retaliation

slicer lost a full healthbar to retaliation after dealing a full phase worth of damage in a single shot, triggering a deathloop

during second revival, spotter loses a half healthbar to upwards thrusting spikes

Appears to be related to multiple attacks overlapping unavoidably causing massive damage in a short time, which itself is a balance problem

passed as a bug report since the space of time was so short it's unclear whether the damage is caused by multiple overlapping attacks or single overtuned damage attack, which would instead be a bug.

either way, it's not fun to be 1-shot from full health for creating a build capable of 1-shotting the boss
