			So I was in an exo lab run by fish people in Ellevar. There was a strange mining node not marked on the map. Figured I'd mine it anyway. I start to mine it and some Eldan construct comes out of the ground, zaps me with some insta kill weapon, then flys straight up and dissapears.Here is the combat log showing me mining the node and then immediately dying.Has this happened to anyone? How often does this happen? Would I have been able to fight it if I were higher level (if the thing  that spawned was at a much higher level than me)?

Sometimes a node will activate a "security protocol" as part of its final cycle (it gets big and menacing at the same time), and if you persist in attacking it then some bots spawn to attack you - actual attacks, not instant-death ray haha fly off attack.  Sometimes a node will get up and try to run away from you.
 
But I've never had anything like what you describe in all of my relic blasting.  Nothing in your combat log there says what killed you or why, either, so I am a bit confused as to what exactly you experienced unless it was specific to that cave?

I've never seen that either, but I've never started in Ellevar. I guess I need to go check out the exo lab run by fish people in Ellevar.
 
Also, lol@"instant-death ray haha fly off attack"

			You mess with ancient Eldan tech at your own peril. Lessons have been learned I hope. -_-

			This was a bug in beta back in WB3 or 4.  Happened to me numerous times as a miner.  I would report it /bug
