I still died three times in that fight.
To put this even more in perspective, the first dozen or so times I fought the General -- all of which were before this last patch, all of which relied on the same basic tactics minus keeping a pally out of combat to res in combat, all but one of which were with me as the MT, and most of which were with the same core party members (Quark, Grizelle, Skan, Arethor, Altrius, and Lissa have been with me on most UBRS runs I've done) -- I only died twice. Period. Something changed here, and in light of the fact that LBRS got nerfed in the last patch, it doesn't surprise me.

People have reported all sorts of DoT mobs doing full damage per tick with DoT attacks since that patch. Blizzard appears to be fixing it server-side, and it may in fact be resolved by now (I haven't seen an official response, but I know that Illucia Barov's Curse of Agony is much more reasonable now than it was last patch day). But it's possible that the damage from the Conflagrate attack went up enormously due to the bug.
