Just wanted to confirm if anyone knows for sure. Does echoing strike hits return damage from thorns heralds? I've lost a few level 90ish locks to thorns heralds this season so I assumed it was the thorns, but I've ran into a couple more since and taken a couple cautious shots at them and didn't take any damage at all. This time around I have a cta (more hp) and a bk ring (4% LL) but I can't imagine that making the difference. Would I be better off avoiding any thorns aura heralds or is there a way to deal with them? Knocked out a couple p8 level 5s with thorns recently so I'm feeling a little more confident, but I'm still not 100% positive on the mechanics here. Why do some 1 hit me and some don't return damage?

No, it's ranged damage. Like an arrow.
