From my previous dealings with Itet I thought this encounter would be tougher, but it really wasn't. Once I found Itet I set up a power font in a nearby area that was free of aggro. I first tried pulling Itet with a debuff, but even the ML9 pet sometimes didn't make contact before I died. So I sent my pet in to get him. Even with a couple sobekite adds, the pet stayed up fairly easily and Itet died before I went through an entire power bar. You probably want to start out with small heals, but later in the fight you can use the bigger heals.

The only thing to worry about are the crocodile minions Itet spawns through the fight. I haven't yet had more than 4 or 5. They spawn near Itet and aggro on what is closest. If you stand at a good distance away from the fight with the SM and bot, the pet should always be the one that gets the aggro. If you happen to get aggro, the pet can easily pull it off of you. I set up a Prescience Node nearby before the fight so that I'd have something to send the pet to if I got aggro and wanted to push the fight away from the power font, but I ended up not needing it this time.

I cleared the crocodile minion adds that were left over from someone's previous failure, but I don't know if that's strictly necessary. Probably not a bad idea anyhow.

One last thing to mention: once Itet turns into a djinn during the fight, you occasionally get spam about a PBAE that is supposed to happen. However, I have yet to see it actually happen. The pet got stunned a couple times, but Itet stayed on him, so that wasn't a problem.

Itet drops the artifact, a matter legendary component, and a few high-quality ROG weapons of various worth.
