This black water cannon attack has a rather tricky angle, and it targets my attribute suppression. Not only can it easily cause massive damage, but it also completely locks me down from the perspective of causality and fate. Although I was mentally prepared, I still felt unexpectedly caught off guard.
I don't know how to describe it. It's like watching a horror movie, fully aware that a jump scare is coming, yet still being startled to the point of being frozen by the loud sound and frightening scene... This might somewhat resemble my current experience. Even my attempts to block or dodge were involuntarily disrupted, forcibly changing direction towards receiving the attack unprepared.
