Stumbling into Arkemyr manor laboratories at level 5

[Matti]

Anyone else have this happen to him...

It's all fun and games still the ironclad contructs show up, gotta chip them to death with summons.

But all hell breaks loose when you meet a steelclad prototype, I however managed to get it to nearly dead.
But my beckoner(main) got knocked out so I couldn't sustain the 2-3 damage per hit barrage my summons did.
Found out ironclads are level 13 (!) 

 

Gotta love beckoners cause arguably no other class could even get close to going toe to toe against something that much higher level.

 

Beckoners are love, Beckoners are life, I mean, they summon, which is directly a jump in both dps and survivability for your party. And their phrases can heal allies for a non trivial amount and they can do stuff while they do most of this.
