[:1]I specced into AMZ for raiding, as I figured it would benefit the raid for certain situations...but there's really no reason. AMZ breaks on a single tick from basically ANY boss AoE dmg as it doesn't absorb nearly enough, even if it were to absorb double or triple its amount in PVE SETTING it would be great.
Just make AMZ work different in pvp, aka player dmg counts double towards AMZ to break it faster, etc etc. Its basically a worthless talent right now, and i'm contemplating just putting another point into IBT or even desecration for H Rhyolith and such fights.
It's more of a PvP survival cooldown if you ask me - negates caster cleaves pretty well.

Any magical damage that hits multiple players at once will ignore the cap on AMZ and disappear afterward, ie. Electrocute, Flame Scythe, etc.

It was only useful against nefs crackles(specially in 25 man it was great)and maloriak's fire breath cleave.Yes 95% cata raid boss deals high magic damage.But with every1s max HP and the max cap of AMZ and cd its prety much useless.Think al'akir acid raid.Amz will last exactly 1 sec.And here in T12 raid it would be useful at majordomo if unholy could stay close to frost's damage.And its very very useful at heroic bale'roc to save a healer from tormented debuff once /2min.
Another thing I have to add,if you are unholy Please spec AMZ.
AMZ is a great cooldown in Firelands on:
Flame Scythe
Superheated stomps
If your guild needs the cooldown, spec for it on those fights. If not, don't.
If you are going to raid as UH, grab it. The extra points in magic suppression are really nice as well. With 3/3 you reduce your damage taken by a huge amount over a fight because of AMS' short CD and glyphed 7sec duration.
More importantly, as has been stated AMZ absorbs fully on multiple targets if the damage is simultaneous, and even on fights where it's not you can treat it like an AMS for a friend, or in an emergency on a tank, etc.
Hands down the best cooldown for Flame Scythe, and heroic Beth'tilac's Devastation, it makes the damage negligible on both at extremely high stacks.
I've found Unholy + AMZ to be a great offspec for the fight's I'm not tanking in. Which also happen to be the ones people have noted make great fights to use AMZ on =P
MAJORHOMO
^ best fight to use amz, especially during the phase where people are getting out of the stack when seeds about to explode
Great for Beth in Burn phase
My only beef with it is I can't place it like a DnD.
its a great mitigator of damage on Majordomo. any magic damage thats hits multiple people at the sametime negates the AMZs total damage, so it will absorb 45k for 25people which equals 1.125 million raid damage on the scorpion cleave, and with a 2min cd its up for every scorpion phase
