Didn't matter that I got stuned, pet shredded the spider.

Same as above, but a much faster fight than the spider. 15 seconds,
maybe.

The thingy he dropped? It did some damage, but I moved away and then the
boss died.

iLvl 707, everything in Firelands simply melted. Dragon Soul was also
trivial up until the spine, which I couldn't do because I didn't
remember the mechanics and DW rolls so frequently you are simply
strafing back and forth the entire time. It seems doable, but bloody
annoykng so I may go back and do it again, or I may not. I think tonight
I am going to try to get all the achievements I am missing from Ulduar or
Ulduan or whatever it's called up in NE Northrend.

It's not particularly interesting game play, but it's more interesting
that running that bird heroic for the 700th time.
