I agree with Nomad oWn, there seems to be a bug or something to this. I have died a three times so far (SC) and two of them to this. I have a werewolf with 2.5k life, and full res when my friend is near with salvation, that ought to be enough to survive that. It's gotto be something odd here, they can't have intended this to be possible.
I alos noticed another odd thing, i was helping my friend doing the ancients in NM, there where three of us, 2 pala and me (werewolf). It was really easy, hardly taking any damage at all, just chopping away. After killing one of them we moved on to the axe guy, the merces where tanking the WW guy. And two of us died in the same hit from the axe guy, we simply couldn't understand how it happened, prior to that hit he could hardly touch us, and then, smack.
It is easy to blame lag or bugs when you die, but this really seems odd. I was planning on starting a HC char, haven't played Diablo2 or HC in a year or so, but with strange deaths like this, it just doesn't seem worth the time. When it's not a matter of skill but of time before you run into things like this.
