So in a game with scripted mechanics and damage:
  • High-end content: Fill out a spreadsheet.
  • Other content: You can safely ignore those abilities. At the point where they might actually make a difference, the run is so far off the rails that it really doesn't matter whether you wipe or not. Laugh it off, and give it another go.
In either case, you can ignore the party list.
