Thanks very much, I finally got out of there.
I learned that the rock on the left side is a better shield to duck
behind than the rock on the right. When I moved forward and to the left
I had better success, and it helped that he finally started paying
attention to my pet.
My pet kept dying and was useless, with my first attempt. When I went
back today, moving forward gave my pet more time to tank before dying LOL
