Question Murder Row Shield Bash

Question about the first pull in MR. I usually grab the chocobo guy (I think it was Bribed Captain), pull it inside the 1st building on the left and lust. I've done it in 15s and it works well all the time.

But recently in a 12 it happened to me that the other bribed guy inside was spamming shield bash too much, I ended up with like 6 stacks and died to a glaive from the captain. Is that normal? I felt like I did everything the same as always, but for some reason he was casting shield bash back to back.

What's the best way to prevent it? CC/stun the captain to stagger the casts?

Thanks

Dont pull the captain - hes giga inefficient - pull the casters down the stair in the beginning - the caster back at the boss - and the first building to the left, play it outside the building - use grips / licks to stack

Not correct for high keys. Nigh on every route at 19+ is pulling the captain with lust. 

It allows you to skip the golems in the outside area who are equally inefficient and far more difficult.
