This one I have a story for!
After getting chased out of KC early this morning (20+ in KC at 7 am est but only 6 people in KC at like 4 pm est... go figure), I returned this evening and found Construct of Sathir popped along with 3 hand dudes.
Attempt one:
Well, I was rushing things. Guess I was paranoid that I'd lose this super awesome mob who drops ultra awesome loot and is soooo rare, or something, and I started lulling the room from just outside when I was at like 70m. I can ToT this guy right? Screw starting with 100m! I got it all lulled, thought I would try killing inside the room while just keeping the other two hands lulled or dazzled, so charmed a hand and buffed him and send him at the not-yet-debuffed Construct. Then just as I was going to run into the room, a little dog and a curate came around the corner and started beating on me.
I got this, right? Dumb. I ran into the room and stunned+AE mezzed in the corner where the Construct (who was still not debuffed... cause my brain is dumb) was. Then my brain got dumber and I just, for whatever reason, was fixated on that stupid little skeleton pet. I wanted it to be dead first, ya know? Get it out of the way? But my pet would NOT attack it... perhaps because of a disease dot from construct or something on him? Even if I mezzed Construct and backed pet off with spammage, he just kept going back to the Construct.
Anyway, by this time my berserker spirit and rune are gone and I'm at like 80% health. Mana wasn't exactly good to begin with, now I was under 40%. I'd show you some screenshots of me being dumb, but in this frenzy of great enchanting, I totally forgot to take any.
Oh, and then charm broke and I got summoned... and hatted.
Attempt Two:
After I recharged, gated back to KC, threw up some fresh buffs, and turned down a group invite, it was time for attempt two. But, well, not really. Aggrod a dog on the way in, mezzed, blurred, continued. Saw dead stuff in lcy, so I IVUd and ran in. Rounded corner to head up the stairs there and there's two little dogs. So I take THEM to the top of the stars for mezzing, finally get both of them to stay blurred, then that damn skeleton who is always on top of the tower right there but is fallen through the ground or something so I don't see him aggros me... I actually had to hat from 2 skeletons.
I almost gave up here. I had been playing all day, made a few blues in seb looking for shinies, did some work on my epic, etc. But I figured I'd try one more time.
Attempt Three:
Lulled the room. Ran in by the tables in there, petted a hand and let it die. Relulled Construct (I think I had ONE crit resist on lull all day today, out of at least 50-60 resists), petted the third hand and buffed him and finished off remaining one. This time I wasn't about to send a pet at the Construct willy-nilly, though:

I mezzed it so my pet could kill that damn skeleton safely, and proceeded to tash, slow, cripple, and ToT the Construct in the meantime. Root wore off early and I got dragged over into the hot corner, but my pet was level 50, so things were moving along pretty well. Without weaponizing though, my pet was just holding even with the slowed Construct so far:

I started to learn how annoying higher-level fights can be, as the Construct resisted 3 stuns in a row on me. But then I had better luck, plus charm was holding:

After another 30 seconds of semi-stunlock and 1 nuke (for good measure) later, the Construct was dead:

I camped out my pet and IVUd to check out warlord. He wasn't up, but as I saw earlier, pawbuster was. I got him down too, although I nearly bit the dust when charm broke and I was distracted trying to relull the other two bodyguards and was a bit slow getting a stun off. WTS pipe MQ
