Getting Killed from Shrines

So this is suitably counterintuitive, shrines are seen as a player buff, but today for the 3rd time i have been killed by the shrine itself, before picking up the buff this time on the lightening damage , firstly you have to fight the mobs then collect the shrine, and nope one of the lightening bolts from the shrine kills me

But, i wanted to test something i have actually killed myself by having the comet buff and stood in it and it actually killed me, now that could have been a one off, but even dying from the shrine itself is odd. (and yes was the shrine as id cleaned out the mobs to test my first death on the last one, and nothing but the shrine was visible so either i died to invisible mobs or the shrine..)

Ya, I've died to the lightning shrines a handful of times as well. From 2.8k hp to 0hp in 1 hit with 77% lightning resist. So those lightning strikes do at least 10k raw damage.

with the 1 death mechanic and how enemies can push players around/lock them in place it feels a bit too hazardous sometimes.

Never killed myself with it while having the buff though.
