What triggers the "Cursed" status effect?

I'd like to know when I can recover from the dying state with Soul Guard. Also, is this just once in a trial, or do I get to recover as long as I'm affected by this status?

    If the effect of any Hex perk is revealed to you, you get Cursed. The only Hex perk this doesn't apply to is Haunted Grounds (maybe Blood Favor and Undying too, I'm not sure). After this, as long as the Hex totem stays up you can forever recover from the Dying state with Soul Guard.

    Examples of when the Cursed status effect triggers:

    • Letting go of a gen with Ruin active
    • Having someone on the team get insta-downed for the first time because of Devour Hope
    • Starting the cleanse totem act with Thrill of the Hunt
    • Getting hit when Third Seal is active
    • Hitting a skill check when Huntress Lullaby is active
    • Having someone on the team get insta-downed by NOED
    • Retribution making you Oblivious after cleansing a dull totem
