Notes

Bugs:

• This trait can potentially activate on Scourges already in downstate that were to die after running out of health, preventing death due to the barrier gained from Desert Shroud.
• The number displayed next to the life force threshold percentage is incorrect. It is based on your max health, rather than your max life force. The actual threshold is correctly based on your life force.

• Will not trigger on lethal falling damage.
• Will trigger (and save you) upon Dragon's Stand meta event timer end.
