I think he just leaves after a set % of damage is dealt to him - I don't know if it's overall or within a set timeframe, but from what I've seen over the last 2 years he runs away from losing battles, anywhere around 25% HP you have like 3 seconds to drop him or he runs.

I've noticed as I got better in the game and started maxing the best mods that I can DPS Stalker in a couple seconds - but even still come the roughly 1/4 mark he always starts to kneel to flee - always, regardless of who's spawn it is. The trick is just being fast enough to chunk off that last bit of health in time.

My 25% 1/4 are just estimates. It's just when he's noteably low on health. I've never actually seen him stay when critical in health levels so I think it's that.
