You have 2 knockbacks. Hover gives you distance AND moving while casting.
Worst case, you have scale (30% damage reduction for 12 seconds), and an ability that heals 100% damage taken. AND an instant cast healing circle.
Honestly I don’t know why people are having problems. I kited an elemental boss to death. Stopped moving when I had defensives, kited to regen.
USE YOUR KIT!
