Feng the Accursed, formerly known as Feng Shri, is the second boss in Mogu'shan Vaults. He is a spirit awakened after the death of the Stone Guard, and will animate several mogu statue trash mobs on the route to his encounter.

Background

Adventure Guide

Long ago, Feng Shri was the Mogu'shan Vaults' caretaker, tasked with preserving the treasures kept within these shadowy halls. After years of faithful service, he was caught stealing from the shelves, although some say he was framed by a jealous underling and the mogu ruler punished him with a fatal curse. The doomed spirit of Feng Shri has wandered the vaults ever since, communing with the shades of past mogu heroes and warlords.

Strategy

Overview

Feng the Accursed is a multi-phase tank and spank encounter in which Feng will draw upon the might of three (LFR and Normal) or four (Heroic) Mogu champion statues located around the perimeter of the dais, gaining their abilities.

At the pull, two large purple crystals will appear on the South side of the dais. These gems, when clicked by a tank, will grant the tank one of two abilities, which the player can activate with an ExtraActionButton1. The West crystal grants Shroud of Reversal and the East gem grants Nullification Barrier. The effects of these abilities are listed above and the proper usage of these abilities is explained below.

Raid composition

These are the ideal raid compositions, but similar configurations may work just as well.

10-player modes: 2 Tanks, 3 Healers, 5 DPS
25-player modes: 2 Tanks, 6 Healers, 17 DPS

General mechanics

While Feng's most important abilities change depending on which phase he is in, he does retain Spirit Bolt which does Shadow damage targeted at a random player. In each phase, he also has a tank swap ability that are all functionally the same mechanic with different types of damage-- Lightning Lash, Flaming Spear, Arcane Shock and Shadowburn. Each of these abilities places a DoT on his current tank, and tanks should swap aggro around 2-3 stacks, although if DPS is very good or a tank is well-geared swapping may not be necessary.

Feng the Accursed has a 9 minute hard enrage timer on Normal mode and a 10 minute hard enrage timer on Heroic mode. If he is not defeated within this time limit Feng will gain vastly increased attack speed and damage and will wipe the raid in a matter of seconds. Heroic mode also features a minor soft enrage mechanic in the form of Strength of Spirit, a passive buff he gains as his individual phases are completed.

Phases

There are three (LFR and Normal) or four (Heroic) phases of this encounter. In LFR and Normal mode, the order of the phases is fixed and Feng will always enter the same three phases in the same order. On Heroic mode, the raid can choose which order they will take the phases in. In either case, whenever Feng enters a new phase he loses the special abilities he had in the previous phase.

On LFR and Normal mode:

At the pull, Feng will simply attack the raid with his basic set of abilities.
At 95% remaining health, he will move to the Northeast statue and the Spirit of the First phase will begin.
At 66% remaining health, he will move to the Southeast statue and the Spirit of the Spear phase will begin.
At 33% remaining health, he will move to the Southwest statue and the Spirit of the Staff phase will begin, which he will remain in for the rest of the encounter.

Heroic mode

On Heroic mode, there are four phases and the raid can control what order they will take the phases in. Feng will draw powers from whichever statue is closest to him at the pull and again when his remaining health reaches 75%, 50% and 25%. Because he will immediately enter a phase after the pull, the tank that begins the encounter must taunt Feng from in front of whichever statue's phase the raid wants to tackle first. The three statues from LFR and Normal mode will grant Feng the same abilities as before, while the Heroic-only Northwest statue will grant him Spirit of the Shield, the Heroic-only phase.

While the order of these phases should reflect your raid's preferences, the most common order used is the following:

Spirit of the Staff - Southwest statue
Spirit of the Fist - Northeast statue
Spirit of the Shield - Northwest statue
Spirit of the Spear - Southeast statue

This order places his most damaging abilities earlier in the fight (when they will not be fully buffed by Strength of Spirit) and also provides the convenience of allowing the raid to wipe earlier in the fight (and thus save time) if these damaging abilities prove too difficult to handle. On the other hand, if the raid is struggling to deal with the adds in the Strength of the Shield phase to prevent Feng's self-healing, it may be advantageous to do that phase first to limit Feng's self-healing potential as he cannot heal himself above 100%. The raid leader will need to decide the best order for his or her team based on knowledge of the members' abilities.

Because Feng will always go next to whichever statue is closest to him, tanks need to move Feng to the next statue for the phase the raid will be doing next ahead of time so that he always enters the correct phase next. If following the order above, after Feng enters Spirit of the Staff the tanks should move Feng to the Northeast statue so that he will acquire Spirit of the Fist at 75%, then move him again to the Northwest statue for Spirit of the Shield before Feng reaches 50% and so on.
