IBom "other" damage

I tried searching for this first but didnt see anything relevant. I was fighting Immortal Abom mini boss in AQ with like 85-90% health and then suddenly just keeled over and was KOd. As you can see, I was using Omega Sentinel, who is poison immune and usually wrecks Abom. So what was this 30k of "other" damage that suddenly killed me?

    It’s plausible, acid burn does a bunch of damage and also makes him unblockable and do burst damage on hit

    Yes, that acid burn is why I don’t take OS against iBom. You either need a straight poison immune champ or a high purify/tenacity champ

    Probably his acid burn dmg... it works against poison immune champs too.
    Yes acid burn, and a little correction here, it works against whoever gets poison debuff which in this case, OS, she doesn’t get damage from poison but will still get the debuff. So its not every poison immune champs

    Wow, so I was taken out by 30k damage from abom's acid reflux?

    Acid burn is the highest damaging dot in the game, what you expect.

    The other source is known as Kaboom damage. It is the emotional damage so is not tracked physically

    Acid burn can still apply on poison immune champs though, but you will have to eat an sp3 for that to happen...

    It would be nice to see some of these “other” damage labels updated. Tapping on them says ‘thanks this has now been logged’ but nothing ever changes.
