I know exactly what you're talking about, and you aren't the first one to fall victim to this boss, assuming your'e killing the eagles and staying in the eye of the storm.

The party-ending move is as follows :
Static Disruption - This is a 35,000 damage AoE ability that'll hit anything within 12 yards of Akil'zon and leave a debuff increasing nature damage taken by 25%. If you have the ability to do so, dispel the debuff on the tank. (Thanks to Allison's guide)

The Static Disruption ability combined with Call Lightning hits like a mac truck filled with... another mac truck.

It seems like melee heavy groups are penalized during this encounter, unless you can have your melee dps run away before Static Disruption drops.

I had the exact same problem. Unfortunately, the tank in my pug decided that we were failing simply because my priest was specced Disc and not holy, and apparently never had a problem with that fight before. Needless to say I reluctantly respecced holy and had to pump out 15k HPS over my usual 9k HPS to cover for my groups mistake in the encounter. I still don't know how I pulled it off, haha.
