A. Dala meteors do more than shagaru blasts. Significantly. Unless you're comparing 140 shag to hr dala, there's not really a contest.

B. As I mentioned, shag's blasts are fairly well synchronized with its attacks. Or on their own timer or something. idk, my understanding of this is a lot more intuitive than explicit, but I can say I've never had a problem avoiding the blasts, regardless of the weapon I use.

C. Um. Sanctuary is pretty sizable. And easy to see stuff in. Agree to disagree I guess?

D. Lag, while unfortunate, shouldn't be counted as a flaw against a monster. Because it basically turns every single monster in the game into The Worst Thing because lag is The Worst Thing.

E. As I said, dodging to the side doesn't work for me. The meteor hitbox is wide enough that I get hit anyway.

F. Yeah, actually dying to them is situational. Pretty much only happens in the described situation in solo. But they're still a constant annoyance and a massive pain in the tail, on top of an already spammy as hell and boring monster.
