[Not intended] Easy "No Time To Waste" Achievement (Hero Glory)
Hey.
Last night we headed over to The Arcway to finish the last part of our meta achievement, and one of the achievements is "No Time To Waste".
It's an achievement at the last boss, at about half percentage of his health, he'll teleport you to a random room in the instance and spawn adds. The achievement is to not kill any adds, intending to either avoid them or by killing the boss with a bunch of adds on your group that CANNOT die.
Well at the moment there is a trick that grants the achievement pretty much for fee, without effort, or even doing the fight any different than normal.
All you need is a rogue. Once you get the teleport, the entire group stays in in the room you were teleported to. The rogue stealths back to the boss, and engages him again. All adds that are NOT in combat will despawn. The boss will now run to the group. So to speed it up, the rogue runs to you, and you run to the rogue, and you finish the boss without any adds at all.Just as you would kill him normally without trying to do the achievement.
This is absolutely not intended, and will get fixed once more people start doing this (most likely through a hobfix).
Get the achievement while this still works, it's a hard one if you have to do it the intended way. They do a lot of damage, and it's like 6 extra arcane adds on your group, or more depending on how many you pull. 6 you will always pull if you do it the intended non-cheat way.

I am sharing this because we wiped for several hours doing this achievement, a couple of people left during the attempts, and during those hours, we noticed that the adds which were not aggro'd will simply despawn, so hence the rogue stealthing back to the boss, not aggroing any add at all, ihitting the boss, and grats. 4 hours wasted trying to do the achievement. Took 5 minutes when we had the rogue stealth to the boss and the rest of the group afking in the teleport room.

This works without a rogue as well - the alternative way to do it is that someone intentionally dies somehow before the teleport and right before the teleport you can CR him which he accepts AFTER the rest of the group is teleported away. The one who got rezzed can now nuke the boss since he does nothing during this phase. It seems as if there are some invisible walls that would trigger the boss to engage again but since no one is runnning through the tunnels he does nothing.

You'd better just read wowhead comments before "wiping for several hours" because those tips were written there like a month ago.

Warlock with Soulstone can do this even faster. Works with any battle res really. As gozzz said it's been on wowhead for quite some time.

And achievement bugs usually don't get fixed until months out, very low priority. Even the Zoom dupe hasn't been fixed.
