Herk had a 17 on the DC15 flat check vs persistent dmg. Does that mean he still took damage so he wanted to roll low? You had him take 6hp persistent after that roll, it appears. Just want to see what I missed
With Persistent Damage, you take the damage then roll to see if the damage stops. That's why it can be deadly. If you're Dying, you'll still take damage if you have any sort of persistent damage, which will increase your dying condition if it's not fixed immediately.

As a GM from back in 1st ed. of the game that shall not be named, the ever evolving game makes it hard to keep track of, let alone learn, all the changes, GM Tiger. I, for one, commend you for taking the time and effort to look into the matter and adjust your understanding. Some GMs would simple say something to the tune of it's my game, my ruling. Kudos and respect.

Previous attck dropped him to 4. He took 7. -3 or is my math wrong?.

A construct companion is a loyal semi-sentient construct who follows your orders obediently and is roughly as intelligent as an animal. Your construct companion has the minion trait, and it gains 2 actions during your turn if you use the Command a Minion action to command it.
If your companion is destroyed, you can spend 1 day of downtime and attempt a Crafting check with a high DC for your level. On a success, you rebuild your companion. You can have only one construct companion at a time, and you can have either a construct companion or an animal companion, but not both.
Source Guns & Gears pg. 32 2.0
Your construct companion has 10 Hit Points, plus a number of Hit Points equal to 6 plus its Constitution modifier for each level you have.
While constructs are usually immediately destroyed at 0 Hit Points, your construct companion is a little harder to destroy than other constructs are. When your construct reaches 0 Hit Points, it becomes broken and begins sparking and might be destroyed if you don't Repair it. This works the same as the normal dying rules and determines if your construct is destroyed, with the following two changes. First, most effects that end the dying condition don't work to save a construct companion, but a construct can be stabilized using the Administer First Aid action, using the Crafting skill instead of Medicine. Second, instead of gaining and tracking the wounded condition, if your construct becomes broken in this way more than twice within a 10-minute period, it's destroyed, and you'll need to reconstruct it by spending a day of downtime.

Dying indicates how close to permanent death you are by how many times you drop below 0hp. Dying 1 means you've dropped below 0 for the 1st time. If you lose the Dying condition via a DC 11 (10 + dying value) flat check, you become Wounded 1. If you drop below 0 again, you become dying 2. If you reach Dying 4, you're permanently dead (unless you can buy a resurrection ritual using AcP.
It doesn't indicate the number of hp below 0. :)
Or if you fail the recovery checks
