I actually think a combo like two STSF elf warriors of Fort + Reynellan sitting out of combat to dispel and sic the angel/elemental on. would've been a very high risk of death and riskier than what he faced in this log. Two fully charged STSF elves aren't going to miss many trips and servitors don't count for anti-gank :-)
It kind of shows how counter-intuitive risk assessment is, because of anti-gank. Mackle even alluded to it, in his choice of Ward/Soul as legacies. It "tipped him over" that critical mass threshold where people couldn't quite duo-gang him.
But that critical mass does not apply if a hooded angel + elemental were on him yet didn't count for anti-gank.
