Prolly a number of things. Did you intimidate her?? Did she have a bat?? Did you have at least 85% base armor?? These are all important issues that if you did not adress...will get you owned every day of the week. O and another tip.....ALWAYS WEAR A FULL SET OF ARMOR, yes thats right...all 9 pieces. Elders are notorious for finding any type of hole in your armor and exploting it....at least in my experience.
I am sure there are more issues that need to be looked at here.....so try and read the stickies about this topic to find the answers to your questions.

That would be the reason. If i see she has a hammer or bat, I move on.
On a side note, I never wear a full suit and have taken down countless elders and kratys without a problem.

Taunted both spell weavers away from her, killed both of em. poped a brandy and canape (im buffed, not mind buffed) and she whips out a PH and kicks my @ss.. What did i do wrong?
Well for 1 if you see the following weapons run like a b---h : LVA, PH, Scythe, or in general anything with med or higher AP.
If you see : "you are choking"more than 5 times in 3 minutes
If you dont have atleast 2-0-4-0 medic for Stim E's and bleed heals run. People say they live with just 2-0-0-0 but i preferto know that i have a 2k heal ready when i need it.
If there are more than 1 elder on you
If you dont have atleast 65% base armor
If you dont have both music and dance buffs (dance only works to but i like both)
BE clothes, i stopped wearing my stun and melee clothes since the high end NPC's and critters seem to land it regardless, i now where clothes that give +25 to bleed resists and they seem to help somewhat.
Warcry 2 is good, since it lets you put a couple of bleed cures and a 2k heal in before breaking.
I like to have an extra stun chest and helm, and boots around incase they pull a baton also some synthsteak (40ish damage reduction) helps alot to
and i go through kenetic armor like nothing. When i see the condition hit the low teens, i look for a new suit.

I can cure my bleeds pritty good if im fighting an elder with another friend.. ITs just the other NSs in the bottom of the cave that like stacking those damn bleeds on me. (youve sustaned more bleeding) is all i see in my chat menu. Im master doc, and it took around 4-5 first aids to cure it, then they stacked 5-6 more bleeds back on me.. bah
I have stun armor, at home
Yeah i know since they started stacking bleeds, ive been pulling them one by one or two and two for a while, a total of 1k+ in bleeds to various hams are deadly, i try to use warcry 2 and cure them and restack intimidate of em asap, then try to take them out one by one, just make sure to bring tons of stim e's (you on my server so i suggest checking the gatica cantina theres a vendor there) those 2k+ heals are a huge help.
And i wear clothes with +25 to bleed resists when hunting NS that seem to help a little (still get you bleeding like crazy) the only way to take down the stacking NS is by either doing it fast as hell or have plenty of healing stuff with you
