    This happens so much in Orbonne's final fight. Sometimes I feel like people are deliberately trying to assassinate me. Or... really want my attention.

    "HEY HEALER, I NEED HELP! I'M GOING TO RUN AT YOU SO YOU NOTICE ME, OK?"

    But seriously, a lot of this comes from panic. When first encountering this mechanic in any fight, most people don't know how long their AoE takes to go off so they just pick a direction and run.
    Once you know how much time you have, it's easier make on-the-fly decisions like "okay we're both running in the same direction, I have 2 seconds left, it is enough to either change direction or come to a full stop"

    I was going to mention the same thing. So often I yell at my screen, "Are you TRYING to kill me!!" Sometimes I wish I can cast a knockback on a player. I actually don't find it that common for players to run towards the melees, so if I don't get a split damage marker, I tend to run to the bosses hitbox to avoid getting hit.

    Also annoys the hell out of me when I get the split marker and everyone seems to think I have cooties are something, but it is definitely more common for someone to get a stack marker and run for the hills. Rescue is great for these occasions.
