Legend
Likewise, but it's not because I expected the GM to intervene with a house rule that certain attacks bypassed Hit Points - it's just that lava submersion does a ton of damage, so the player and the character are usually on the same page in realizing its obvious lethality.
Witch makes it all the more heroic and legendary... If I was playing a 7th level paliden who just saw the holy ring of his God thrown into the lava pit and I jumped after it with 70hp I would expect to have to get lucky to survive but if the dm ruled that no luck could save me I would be mad... If 10 levels later when I had 175hp I would be even madder still at least with 70 up I could expect death...
