Endless number of Atros in AA HM

Yesterday, i was in AA with my Group and we wanted to do the HM in AA. Our normal way to play this Boss is that one tank takes all the atros and place them at one side of the platform so they are in no AoE and we can ignore them. When we did this we had normaly 4 Atros when the boss went into the finisher Phase. Yesterday, we had at 60% bosslife already 8 Atros and they spawned in extreme Speed. When we wiped we hat a 12 Atros.(sorry, have forgotten to take a screenshot)
I haven't seen any comments in the last patchotes that they have changed this. So when did they do this or was it only a unintended bug?

    sounds like you mix atronaches with axes. have always been endless atros for me, starting from the point when you teleport to the platform but only 3-5 axes (depending how bad is your dps) and common tactic with axes is to take them to the side, while atros are usually taken to the middle where they die to boss aoe.

    No. It was always possible to tank the Atros out of the Group without killing one of them. I have donne this many times and there were never more then 4 Atros or Maximum 5

    Same here.

    Tho I heard from a guildie about this endless Astros bug.
    “Kings of the land and the sky we are; proud gryphons.” Stalker stands, the epitome of pride. Naked and muscular, his wings widen and his feet dig in as if he alone holds down the earth and supports the heavens, keeping the two ever separate.”

    Had never seen it cheesed as OP describes. Good to see it cannot be done now. It is easy to take care of the Atros properly as most seem to do it properly.

    EDIT: Hopefully the endless atro parade is not a bug and just the mechancs operating properly.

    It's working as intended, just stack them in middle on mainboss and cleave them, once they enrage you just focus them, if you can't do that you have a DPS issue.

    That means that you're not damaging or not killing one of the very first atros that spawns during the add-pull before the boss.

    The fact that you could get away with just stacking atros on the side and forgetting them was a bug. The "endless atros" is how Atros should be spawning.
