Simple Guide for Gotta Go!
- Tip 1: Bring a Hunter.
The Hunter class makes this achievement that much easier, and not because of the crazy DPS from the Beast Mastery tree.
At the start of the encounter, the Hunter shoots the boss and immediately feigns. This despawns the boss and allows the Hunter to properly place a snake trap for Mind-Numbing Poison and have DPS positioned properly.
Sure, this isn't needed but every bit helps. The real reason you want a Hunter? If you get unlucky with the casts, the Hunter can reset the boss fight.
Simply wait for spikes to appear underneath the group and have the Hunter stand on top of them. In mid air he can disengage out of the webbed area. When the boss reappears the Hunter can then distracting shot the boss and kite him up the stairs, resetting the encounter.
Rinse and repeat while praying for a lucky cast.
- Tip 2: "The essentials" should be used.
And that would be a Warlock's Curse of Tongues and a Rogue's Mind-Numbing Poison. With a Shaman's Bloodlust after his first burrow you should have him down with plenty of time to spare.
- Tip 3: Don't worry about "fully buffed".
Did this today with minimal buffs. Simply had Gift of the Wild, Flask of Endless Rage, and a food buff as a Hunter. The group consisted of a Rogue, Warlock, (elemental) Shaman, (feral) Druid and myself as Beast Mastery. Gear doesn't need to be best in slot and I didn't have the best enchants I could obtain. The Potion of Speed I popped didn't really matter since I was "haste capped" in my spec and I also forgot to use my Saronite Razorheads.
Hope this helped! If it did, please give it a [+]!

About Azjol-Nerub
Azjol-Nerub was an empire of great strength when the Lich King arrived in Northrend. Despite ferocious resistance, however, Scourge forces managed to overtake the subterranean kingdom and slaughter its inhabitants, the nerubians. Scarred by years of war and abandonment, this vast domain is now occupied on two fronts.

Just a heads up, he can only be fought on his little platform, and leashes as soon as he walks off it.
The metanoia method with 2 mages no longer works. Metanoia is now removed upon entering the instance.
