Throne of the Tides HeroicFollow

It's moments like these that I wish I had fraps or would remember to take screenshots.
We just finished a (mostly) guild run of the above, and it bugged out on the last boss. It was my first time there in Heroic mode, and it bugged the one time I did the instance on normal too.
One of our group didn't get the buff. Everybody else did, but after a couple of minutes I was the only person left alive. I'm an Unholy DK, so Death Strike isn't usually in my rotation, but I had a couple of runes available and PS and N(ecrotic) S were on cooldown, so I hit DS and WHOA! It healed me for over 300k.
I switched into Blood Presence and proceeded over the next 5 minutes to solo the crap out of tentacle guy :D
This was made even better because us guildies in the group were on Vent, and over those 5 minutes I'd got an "audience" of about 20 people :)

I'm putting this here in the hope that people will enjoy my little tale of triumph and relate their own, but I have a question too: Should I report this to Blizz? I'm sure they know of the bugging out, and I don't think it's really an exploit, but they probably didn't intend for this sort of thing to be possible either.

I would certainly inform them what happened. Worst case scenario whatever drops you might have gotten would be taken away. Best case you keep said items. Now if you don't report it the best thing that can happen is you keep the items while the worst is you get a temp suspension.

I believe the buff increases health, healing, and damage doesn't it? I wouldn't complain

It's supposed to only increase Holy and Nature Healing if I remember the tooltip correctly.

Death Strike heals for % of the damage you've taken in the last 5 seconds. You've got LOADS of HP and take LOADS of damage in the fight, so I'm quite sure it's Working As Intendedâ„¢.

Aye this is somewhat normal.

Everyone's damage is increased, Healing is increased, and stats are boosted out the ying-yang but there is a stacking debuff that is supposed to kill you.

I'm not sure if the stacking debuff maxed out and was still unable to kill you, or if you glitched it by being alive so long. I have had similar experiences on my Paladin, though (Bubble erases/resets the debuff, and 1-stack WoG heals for like 150k.)

What's really supposed to happen is Healer gets infinite mana and goes into hard AoE rotation while all DPS DPS the boss usually in the 20-40k dps range.
