Avoid Barrage’s projectiles so Pocket cannot build damage amplification from repeated hero hits. Watch the route of Flying Cloak and keep clear of Enchanter’s Satchel’s exit explosion. Pocket can wait before teleporting to the cloak. While Pocket is targetable, throw Consecrating Grenade at the enemy when you can follow its reduced healing with pressure. Use Gutshot toward a nearby wall when that gives you a safe stun.
Watch whether Pocket actually teleports to Flying Cloak before following. Stand outside Enchanter’s Satchel’s explosion and wait until Pocket emerges before attacking. Throw Consecrating Grenade at Pocket, then fire Ira Domini from beside cover when the firing line is clear. Blessed stakes can execute low-health enemies.
Leave space between allies before Pocket reaches you with Affliction. Fully upgraded Affliction prevents healing. Protect affected teammates from follow-up attacks. Throw Consecrating Grenade at Pocket, then fire Ira Domini from beside cover when the firing line is clear. Blessed stakes can execute low-health enemies.
