@TNB: If you mean while your in the Hot Spring, you can still get hit by meteors while climbing the wall or healing in that area, though it's rare.

If you mean the corner on the ledge under it's mouth when coiled, or by it's right(left from players perspective) arm in the final stage, that area is only safe outside the final stage.

@Drakonzeta: The best thing to do if stuck in the hot spring, in that final stage, is to use a Farcaster. If you can't be bothered to bring one or ingredients for more, it's on you if you die to meteor spam while trying to get back up.
