Are you asking whether or not you should've died from rushing the active flamethrower?

This play was a clear mistake and death absolutely deserved, the good news is that it is easy for you to fix so you won't die from that again.

Husk is a tricky enemy with Zerk, but this is something you can learn:

• Don't engage a husk who is not in his idle animation. Especially DON'T engage a husk who is in flamethrowing animation or you will die in the next 1 second, as you saw (this is the same for every perk btw)
• Learn to 1 hit kill it a husk by hitting the tank, can be done reliably with most weapons
• Only come in husk close range when you can directly attack it (no mobs wo can stun/block you) and you MUST kill it in1 hit or retreat. If you fail to kill it in 1 hit, run away immediately, otherwise you risk getting one shot by the suicide attack.
• It is possible, but risky, to engage a husk while he's aiming his shot. You can dodge the shot by jumping at the right moment but failing will lead you to take a direct hit and go down 50 hp, so only do this if necessary and you cannot afford to wait for him to end his animation.

Following third bullet bullet you should have focused down the husk instead of bothering with trash mobs, that's your first mistake. Then following bullet 1 you should have retreated as soon as you noticed the flamethrowing animation, that's your second mistake and otherwise you would have survived with 20-30 hp. You did 2 mistakes and died for it, but the good new is: from now on, this won't happen ever again
