It would be a relatively useless ability if normally resistable. Your tank has to be in NR gear for the fight anyway, so it would be a gimmick problem that solved itself.
Yeah, I was just pointing out that there's no other explanation which makes strictly more sense.

But we've seen Flame Buffet stack up on to 20+ on a MT in full FR. I understand what you're saying, but the problem would hardly ever take care of itself due to the randomness of WoW's resist system.

I'm gonna have to go with bugged on this one, although forcing tank transitions on an untauntable mob is interesting. I think there are much more graceful ways of doing it though.

I actually really like the transition mechanic in this fight. We've gotten used to the fast switching via taunts in BWL, this mechanic just involves a little bit more dynamic use of abilities we've gotten used to using in raids for different situations. Admittedly, I think you're right in that it could have been done somewhat more gracefully, but at least the raid learns how to pull it off.
