As we can clearly see in the description, it does say that the damage should be received only after the beam is fully formed, however, in all of my previous games against Celeste i always got in the same kind of situation
1. An area of Celeste's 3 starts forming
2. I step out of it
3. Explosion happens
4. I receive damage even though i'm clearly out of the area of hit
Pretty sure it's a bug and it shouldn't work like this, hits should be registered when the actual explosion happens. Either this, or an unclear skill description.
