Anub'arak 25 HC. We're at 48/50 attempts, so still in contention for A Tribute to Mad Skill achievement. The first phases all go as planned and we even get him to around 15% with no issues. Then it happens; some healer d/cs, some DPS do as well, and suddenly people are dying left and right to the frost damage debuff. The boss is close to 5% when more of the DPS start dying. A new wave of adds spawn, heading to the OT...the OT holds them for a while but there aren't enough stuns available for them and they shadow-strike some other raid members who die. The OT then dies and the adds are now loose. The boss is almost at 1% and everyone who is alive is busy nuking him hoping against hope. And just on the second that Anub'arak goes berserk, the last raid member dies and Anub'arak does as well. We get our achievement but every single raid member was dead at the time of the kill. Due to that the "door" doesn't open, Tirion doesn't come down and the chest doesn't spawn. We then had to petition a GM to get our chest loot. I'm sure those last few percentages resulted in some smaller fingernails on our raiders.
