ok, actually, the proper understanding is that the mob, when defeated, whether anchored or not, looses the debuff because they're "arrested" so it doesn't matter where the anchor is, debuffs do not effect defeated mobs.

So then, if the toggle drops when the mob dies before the explosion actually occurs (which makes sense) - then anchoring a non exploding mob, and killing the exploding ones first (while in the cloud of course) "should" debuff the explosion damage since the debuff is still active. I'll attempt to test this and report back.
