Is the Necro "An epic request" quest impossible at level 70?

    So as far as I can tell, this quest scales everything based on your level, and of the seven events, the first six are all very beatable, with appropriate strategies. However, the boss fight seems to actually be impossible.

    Let me set the stage a little, I have at bit over 14k hp raid buffed, and maxed or close-to-max heroic stats for shielding/avoidance/dodge 3/ etc. In other words, I probably couldn't realistically bring much better gear at this level.

    This boss, which I am supposedly supposed to solo hits for over 2000 damage a hit and FAST.

    The boss is completely immune to all spells, including:
    Root
    Snare
    Fear
    Lifetaps

    The boss will constantly force aggro on ME, even if i try to have my pet taunt
    The boss will force break Feign Deaths by force aggroing on me even while FD and casting stuns

    Speaking of the boss casting spells, it casts several second stuns frequently as well as casting what seems to be an un-resistable root.

    I know the boss will eventually become "vulnerable" after time passes, but it's just not possible to survive until this happens even once, let alone actually continue fighting beyond that.

    He just roots me, runs up to me, ignoring any attempts I make to stop him and kills me in about 10 seconds.

    I even tried Armor of Experience, but the boss is immune to the mitigation effect on that too :(

    Not only that, but every time I die to him, the entire event resets and I have to waste 30-45 minutes doing the first six events again before I can even try to fight him again.

    I have another idea of an unusual...step... i could take to beat him and I don't want someone to just tell me how to win. I just want to know if i'm wasting my time trying or if its actually possible to beat at this level.

    It kind of seems like the scaling is broken on this mob because nothing else in the event hits for nearly that hard.

    Well I guess it's possible, since I figured out a way to do it. I'm not sure if my strategy was "correct" or not but it was WAY outside the box.

    Does anyone know the proper text to pass the camp fire rune? No matter what i say they destroy the rune.

    Was hoping someone had a log from a successful run of the rune part.
