Sorc Ability Queries

I don't run a sorc and haven't done so previously, so I don't know their skill trees - as such I have a couple of questions

1) I keep getting killed by a certain sorcerer who drops shooting star as a finisher whenever I'm below about a third health - noob question, but is there any counter to this? I tried dodge rolling when I hear the sound cue but it seems to track me - I'm a NB so can I vanish away from this, or is this just an inevitable death?

2) What is the debuff that shrinks my health bar down to an embarrassing size?

And this one I guess is PS4 specific -

3) Is anyone else getting locked in combat after respawn in Cyrodiil? I have to wait a solid minute before I can mount up - bit of a nuisance

Thanks!

    1) If you cloak before the impact the meteor will "miss you" (Don't ask me why)
    2) That could be a DoT, you can remove it with cloak, again :)
    3) Permacombat is common, yes

    Thanks man - will definitely cloak for meteor now

    I've just (as we speak) been debuffed by that health-shrinker - tried cloaking to remove it as a DoT but it remained... bit of a pain

    there is only one health shrinking ability, one of the destro staff pbae morphs reduces your maxhealth by 10%
    as it seems you are playing on consoles where you dont see your HP anyway i would guess somthing else is going on probably you´ve have been hit not realizing that.
    fighting sorcs as a NB is rather easy keep rolling, reducing his dmg options to one spell every 4sec wich aint going to kill you...

    1) cloak or block, but if you block then get out of the ground effect it leaves behind.
    2) Its a morph of impulse in the destruction staff skill line that decrease your enemies health by 10% for 30 seconds.
    3) As for this one as far as I know its been a issue since the launch of pc version. So its been a year and no fix.

    Also as a heads up non of those abilities are sorc abilities. Meteor is a ultimate from the mages guild skill line.
