Impaling - impales all targets in a strait line dealing physical damage and flinging them into the air
Locust Swarm - surrounds Anub'Rekhan with locusts - dealing stacking nature damage and prevents all abilities to anyone within around Anub'Rekhan
Corpse Scarabs - creates scarabs from the corpses of the dead
Strategy:
Have the main tank pull Anub'Rekhan and tank at the north end of the room with the main tank's back facing the east wall. The ranged DPS and healers need to stay near the center of the room and make sure everyone is spread out to minimize the effects of impale. Anub'Rekhan will periodically summon a Crypt Guard to attack the raid - have the off-tank pick up the Crypt Guard and tank him in the center of the room - at which point have all the DPS switch from Anub'Rekhan to the Crypt Guard. The ranged DPS should always be ready to AOE the corpse scarabs that will spawn from dead Crypt Guards. (and also anytime a party member dies)
The Initial Pull Position
Peroidically Anub'Rekhan will start to cast Locust Swarm (you will see an emote on the screen) - a Crypt Guard will also be summoned during this time. Have the melee DPS move in with the ranged group at position 1 to help kill the Crypt Guard while the main tank run a half circle around the east side of the room to position 2. (the tank will need to move a little further then a half circle to prevent getting hit by Locust Swarm - and then reposition the boss at the south point of the room)
Positioning for the First Locust Swarm
Positioning for the Second Locust Swarm
Reposition the boss so that he is now at the south end of the room with the main tank's back again facing the east wall and make sure the Crypt Guard is dead before the DPS switches back to Anub'Rekhan and then rinse and repeat (the next Locust Swarm have the tank run the circle north) this process until Anub'Rekhan is dead.
For priests and others with levitate/slowfall abilities.
After you've been flung into the air; use levitate/slowfall, it prevents you from taking falling damage, then the healers can use their mana on more important things ^^

seems that the strat for him hasn't changed from the strat pre-tbc... does that mean it's the same for every other boss too?
