How to walk in aetherial?

[Superfluff]

I know this might be a dumb question, but bear with me.

I’m currently in the Homestead area and have a quest in Conflagration. I’ve been noticing a lot of purely green aetherial ridden paths lately that cause a massive amount of damage walking through.

Is there some trick to taking these paths without taking damage? I know there are some resistance type potions but am I missing something bigger?

Thanks!

Aether resistance, DA (the ground can crit you it seems). Time your health potions, your circuit breakers (like mirror, blast shield, menhir’s will), your heals (Blood of Dreeg, Pneumatic burst)
