Playhouse Perfectionist Achievement
At this point I think it’s pretty much intended. At least it’s always been the case.
Oh well I’m not stressing too much about it. It just feels kinda lame to have to do another dungeon even though I didn’t technically “die.”
There is a legitimate path (you’re not exploiting anything) you can take that prevents having to fight anything other than Scarlet’s first 8 minions (when you’re saving Lord Faren) and Scarlet herself. Makes the dungeon take about 10 minutes.
It’s probably not the most fulfilling way to complete the dungeon, but if you’re just looking for the achievement, it is the most efficient.
There is a post in the Living Story forum (I believe that is where it is) from a dev, saying that the wording in the achievement was wrong, and it was supposed to say downed, not death. So, no bug.

Also supported by the fact that the achievement for the dredge fractal has similar wording and requirements since the release of FotM.
