This was way we dealt with the Spirit Kings in our 10 man raid:

We used 1 tank, 2 healers and 7 damage dealer.

Since you encounter the Spirit Kings in a random order, you might want to alternate your tactics by some degree.

Every King has a set of abilities, he uses since the moment he becomes active. And he keeps using one of them after being defeated.

Qiang the Merciless
1. He calls for Flankierbefehle every 40 seconds while alive and every 75 seconds while defeated. When this event occurs a group of mogu warriors will move in a direct path from one end to the other end of the room.
2. Massiver Angriff is a frontal cone attack he uses in very short intervalls. It's damage is split by the number of targets hit. Make sure all raids members are being hit, otherwise Quiang oneshots people very fast.
3. Vernichten is another frontal cone attack but make sure that no one gets hit because it's doing high damage but not splitting like ability 2. It's cone is indicated by clouds of dust.
Stack together and have your tank coordinating the group. Everyone has to stand inside the tank, so he is the one to announce in which direction he dodges Flankierbefehle, Vernichten or any other ability from the defeated kings which has to be avoided.
Group heal is needed, can really help out, if healers are having mana issues with this fight.
Meng the Demented
Meng is a tricky one. He has two stances with increasing strength as his insanity increases. After reaching 100% insanity he switches the stance and starts again with an empty bar.
1. Wahnsinnig is the stance he deals increased damage. Prepare to heal your tank after insanity reaches futher than 60%.
2. While being affected by Feigheit, Meng acts like being feared by a warlock, running slowly through the room, but reflecting damage as insanity increases. As soon as insanity reaches 60% a damage stop is needed to preserve healer's mana.
In addition to that he has two active abilities:
1. Wahnsinnerweckender Schrei allowing you to deal damage to your raidmembers and also applies a damage over time effect, which is dispelled after receiving a set amount of damage (40,000 in 10 man). He keeps this ability after being defeated.
2. Verrückter Gedanke is a 2 second cast, increasing Meng's insanity by 10.
Make sure to stack again, in order of breaking the effects of Wahnsinnerweckender Schrei very fast with area of effect attacks like Arcane Explosion. Those spells should not have any secondary effects.
The other aspect of dealing with the mad king is knowing how to interrupt his Verrückter Gedanke spell. As a rule of thumb, after reaching 60% you do not want to interrupt anymore in order to pass this phase as quick as possible.
Make sure to have a damage stop at 60% insanity while Meng is affected by Feigheit in order to preserve healers' mana.
Zian of the Endless Shadow
1. He uses Unsterbliche Schatten to summon small orbs, looking like a purple skull, which fixate to a randomly chosen player. After being killed they form a voidzone, which shrinks till the Undying Shadow is reborn after 30 seconds. This time it chooses the closes player standing to the voidzone while it respawns as target for fixate. Those targets have low HP but deal a high amount of shadow damage to close players. He retains this ability after being defeated.
2. Aufgeladene Schatten is like a shadow version of chain lightning, but dealing the same amount of damage to every target. It's jumping range is 8 yards.
3. Schattenschlag is a debuff dealing a good amount of shadow damage to all targets within 8 yards.
Make sure to spread out the raid to prevent his abilities from dealing damage to more than one player.
The ones fixiated by Unsterbliche Schatten should kite it to the wall and make sure it gets killed there by ranged dps. It is tempting to deal damage as soon as possible, but this causes trouble with the void zones. Assign a "volunteer" to stand close to those void zones, to deal with the respawning adds.
Subetai the Swift
1. He uses Plündern to deal damage in a random area and applies a healing and armor reduction debuff to all targets hit by this ability. He uses this ability after being defeated.
2. He shoots a large Salve dealing small damage in a wide cone, followed by Salve dealing damage in a medium cone, finished by Salve which is a single shot, which can oneshot players.
3. Pfeilregen choose a random target and pinning every player within 8 yards of the target down. Those pinned down players are unable to do any actions untill the arrows are killed. (One arrow per target hit)
Dealing with the pillager is pretty simple. Spread the raid prevents him hitting more than one target with Pfeilregen. Targets affected by Pfeilregen have to be freed asap!
Everything else is just dodging his cone attack and his Plündern, as well as the other kings' abilities.

Since the order in which you have to fight those kings is randomly chosen, you have to watch out for the abilities of the defeated kings and adapt to them, while killing the active one. Therefore I just mentioned the abilities of the active one, since the combinations which are possible would be too many.

The abilities which the kings use after being defeated are:

Flankierbefehle (Qiang the Merciless)
Wahnsinnerweckender Schrei (Meng the Demented)
Unsterbliche Schatten (Zian of the Endless Shadow)
Plündern (Subetai the Swift)

Here is a video showing how my guild dealt with the bossmechanics: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vQUo_ZVz8h4&feature=bf_next&list=PLHs1z6wAbUQDtrnOqLC6ggsBqTuMn2qKG
We had the order:

Qiang the Merciless
Zian of the Endless Shadow
Subetai the Swift
Meng the Demented

And notice that this video is showing how Qiang is pulled wrong.

Additions in heroic

At 30%HP the next King will spawn, so you have to fight two kings at the same time during the transitions.
The order is fixed to:
1. Qiang the Merciless
2. Subetai the Swift
3. Zian of the Endless Shadow
4. Meng the Demented
Each King gains a new ability that works as a self buff:
Undurchdringlicher Schild makes Qiang immune to damage, dispells all debuffs and makes him attack for each hostile action that is dealt to him. (only dispellable with Massenbannung)
Subetai does a debuff that reduces damage and healing done and armor value by 50% while affected by Fingerfertigkeit. If he is stunned the debuff will not be applied. Ranged DD have to watch out with slow flying projectiles as the cast is shorter than the time your projectiles may need.
Zian will deal high damage to the raid, when his Schild der Dunkelheit is active. A damage stop is required until all 5 stacks are dispelled.
Meng gains the double amount of insanity, when affected by Im Delirium. Simply dispell this enrage effect when he is under 60% insanity and let it on him, when above this threshold.

Kommentar von 1264043

During this current patch, and going into the future, there are maybe two mechanics that prevent this fight from being a faceroll.

#1 is Schild der Dunkelheit. This is heroic-only, but I imagine more and more people will be trying to get through heroic, anyway. The story is that when you see Zian begin to cast this (he will cast, and then channel to sustain the shield), stop dps. This is more important than getting your Blingtron daily package, people! Hopefully, Zian will be killable before the first cast, or the damage will be bearable, sooner rather than later.

#2, I think, is Vernichten. This is the bad boy that Garrosh learned from the mogu, and he uses his own version in SoO. For the most part, it's just a matter of not standing in the bad.
For the tank, it also means not to charge in on the pull, else s/he'll get one-shot. And mocked. And laughed at. And I should know, having a lil' tank of my own. Just don't use a Sturmangriff-type attack on Qiang, ever.

Kommentar von 212613

Okay, doing H MSV mount run and this fight bugged out. 4th king wouldn't spawn and with 100's in the group we can't die........not even sure how to reset except for hearth

The Spirit Kings 10 Normal - Mage solo

https://youtu.be/sPMBJHXCXRo?t=2m43s

enjoy :)

Kommentar von Chalgar

Attempted solo as a 687 Combat Rogue, but couldn't do it. Pinned arrow and occasional massive damage that I can't heal through with Recuperate.

Kommentar von 591231

Easily solo-able in current patch. If you are coming here, you're having issues with Pinned Down, the ability the 2nd boss does. If you aren't a class that has a pet, an ability to remove stuns (Warlock), or don't have an AoE attack that stays after your stunned (DK Defile) make sure you have the DPS and a PVP trinket to remove the stun and kill him before he can cast it a second time. Also, you could pick-up Every Man For Himself (Human racial). I'm sure there are other methods, so be creative and don't give up.

Kommentar von Belzebutinov

Concerning Subetai's pin down (stun) ability: combat rogues can avoid it with a well-timed killing spree. Just before the boss' ability goes off, he does a weird raising hand gesture, with arrows starting to fall: hit your KS at just that time, and you'll be fine. You'll need enough dps to kill him before he casts it again though. I managed to pull it off with just under 680 ilvl, so nothing too crazy :)

Kommentar von Greyvax

The buff to second wind has helped a bit (currently 25% leech). Definitely helps to pop a potion and blow all cooldowns on Qiang. At 695 as fury, i've been able to skate by this fight on my way to elegon.

Kommentar von skyline33

Just soloed as a 690 iL Shockadin
Incredibly easy.
Spam denounce and holy shock = Win

No achievement for dancing though

Kommentar von digitalutopia1

Soloed 10N as a 688 Combat Rogue. This is a very high damage fight, so you're definitely going to want to glyph Recuperate and Cloak. In addition, especially with Qiang, you're going to want to make judicious use of Combat Readiness and Feint. The entire fight is essentially a balance between survival and DPS - if you try to just burn the bosses, you're going to have a bad time.

In addition, if you're not Human, you're going to need a PvP badge to get out of Pinned, when fighting Subetai. Due to the changes in 6.2, Killing Spree will no longer make you immune to CC, so trying to use it to avoid getting pinned, is not going to work.

Kommentar von shchmue

Monk, did it on 10N as 684 Windwalker with Übermächtiges Verdammnismal for Leech. This was the easiest fight for me as WW (did Feng as Brew) in terms of fewest dips in HP. Nimble Brew out of Pinning Arrow, DPS, avoid Flanking Orders.

Kommentar von Sqqueeky

Draenischer Trank der lebhaften Aktion gets you out of Pinning Arrows and doesn't share CD with the PVP trinket, so take both just in case

Kommentar von reapersheart

Easily solo'd as 690 Surv Hunter (10N)
just stay out of stuff, and when you get pinned, have your pet kill the arrow.

Kommentar von DeadMAX

When you are soloing this at this moment (Patch) the maddening shout debuff persists. To remove it, you would either damage other player (which you won't since you are soloing this) or die.

If you jump into the Elegon's "crater" you will die without a durability loss and clear this debuff that is constantly damaging you.

Kommentar von Olim

If you are soloing this, you can break out of the arrow pin with a PvP trinket.

Kommentar von dillybar

821 BM Hunter

Kept glitching on me, I'd get to the third king, break the "pin down arrow" with my pet, then down the third king, and the last one, Meng, would not activate.

Tried a lot of things, the only thing that seemed to work was severely limiting DPS on that third guy. In fact, on the last one, in which I was successful, I slowed everything down on all the bosses. I waited until Meng came out, didn't take the 3rd king all the way down, I just dps'ed heavy on Meng once he activated, and that worked.

Kommentar von cstober2010

After gearing up a bit in Legion, I wanted to test out 25m Heroic Mogu'shan Vaults. Level 110 Fury Warrior ilvl 828. It wasn't as faceroll as I had hoped lol. You can solo this, it will just take some time.

This is where it gets tricky... The Spirit Kings. Now, theres a few things to look out for...Try to avoid the flanking orders and always finish off the previous boss before you're onto the next, less trouble to deal with. Qiang hits pretty hard, even for a level 110. His auto-attacks are intended to be split amongst a whole raid. This is where you would want to use defensive cooldowns. Do not get hit by Annihilate, I didn't test it but it used to do MASSIVE damage in MoP...so I'm sure it would take a nice chunk out of your HP, if it doesn't one shot you. The final and toughest part of this fight is Subetai the Swift. Every so often, he will rain down arrows onto you. I dont believe this is avoidable, you will be stuck with Festgenagelt. You are stunned indefinitely until a player breaks you out. I gave up after 3-4 tries until I read a post on Wowhead. You can use a PVP trinket to get out of this! I had to go into the item restore and dig for my old pvp trinket that I sold when 7.0 dropped, before Legion even released. With the pvp medallion, I was able to easily kill Subetai the Swift. From there, its smooth sailing. Just wait until he's done channeling until you break from the stun. If you don't have a medallion, or you cannot acquire one - the best shot you have is nuke him before it comes out. Otherwise, I think you'll need someone to help you. Good luck!

I was under the impression that raids that are two expansions below us would be considered legacy and we get a bonus to damage -- however, this is not the case. In MoP, our damage remains unchanged (compared to Legion).

Kommentar von Emelie

I was that one who definitely did NOT go in prepared (no Living Action potions, attempting to get an achievement, etc, and as a druid, Ysera's Gift on). If this happens to you while soloing, just exit out for a few minutes. With you logged out, your Ysera's Gift won't heal you and you'll die eventually.

I'm normally in Windowed mode, so I was just able to hit the X to exit.

Kommentar von Crazytotz

This fight bugged on me a couple of times. Once you get the currently spawned boss down to 30% health the next boss begins to activate but it isn't immediately. What happened to me was I dpsed it down before the next one activated completely. So once the boss is below 30% give it a second and make sure the next one activates completely and is attackable before you dps hard.

Kommentar von cstober2010

10m Heroic MSV -- Level 104 Windwalker Monk i728

Solo'd this boss along with the entire raid with ease. I equipped a pvp trinket for the Pinning Arrow, but I killed Subetai before he casted it (even without my cds). If you're lower level, just be sure to use defensives and you should be okay. I would use your cds on Qiang, as his attacks are intended to be split amongst the raid aka they still hit like a truck. At this level, most of these fights are DPS races because you do take a lot more damage than you would at 110. Generally on these fights I was peaking 350k and ending 150k. Ended at 300k on Stone Guard. WW Monks are OP...But still, 10m heroic is incredibly easy.

Kommentar von snub999

If you're a monk with the healing elixir ability and you get pinned by Subetai's arrow, you are caught in an infinite loop.

1) You cannot break out of the arrow alone.
2) His damage is so low that your healing elixir will recharge and heal you back up before he can kill you.

There is no way to escape. You eventually will die (Took me almost 30 minutes). You cannot log or exit game (without using Alt-F4) and none of the help "unstuck" tools work.

Kommentar von Mifana

I went completely unprepared and got pinned down and was stuck.

I went as a shadow priest and after some tries, I found out, that this is pretty easy.

When the second boss activates, give him a few dots and begin running around the room following the walls. Preferably with speed bonuses. This will dodge the arrows and gives you freedom to use instant spells and dots killing him quite easily.

Kommentar von zomgname

If you're trying to get transmog or something on multiple toons and don't have the dps to burst down the arrow guy before he pins you down, open your heirloom tab and craft the PvP trinket (inherited insignia), assuming you've collected it. This will break you out!

Kommentar von McManly

Queued up a solo raid through Lorewalker Han, got to this point no problem, but after Lorewalker Cho went over to look at the "button" and began dialogue, nothing happened and nobody spawned. Had to leave the instance & couldn't progress further in the raid. Any ideas why this might have happened?

Kommentar von AnrDaemon

If you queue from Loremaster Han for a solo raid encounter, remember that it's LFR!
Gara'jal the Spiritbinder is the last bosss of a first wing of this raid.
Just leave instance and requeue for "Vault of Mysteries" instead.

Kommentar von jeffcooper

Shadow Priests against Subetai, if you get pinned and try to use Dispersion, you will DC. Use the PvP trinket.

Update: changing out of Shadowform will DC you as well.

Prozession des Königs

Die Geisterkönige werden der Reihe nach wiederbelebt, wobei jeweils ein König die Spielercharaktere angreift, bis er besiegt wird, danach folgt der nächste. Bezwungene Könige werden gänzlich körperlos, steuern aber in regelmäßigen Abständen eine ihrer mächtigen Fähigkeiten bei.

[Heroisch] Der nächste Geisterkönig wird wiederbelebt und betritt den Kampf, wenn sein Vorgänger unter 30% seiner maximalen Gesundheit fällt.

Qiang der Gnadenlose

Wenn die Spielercharaktere den Kriegsherrenkönig besiegen, bleibt dieser trotz seines geschwächten Zustands weiterhin im Kampf, setzt jedoch nur noch seine Fähigkeit 'Flankierbefehle' ein.

Flankierbefehle – Der Kriegsherrenkönig befiehlt ein Flankiermanöver und ruft eine Welle von Moguangreifern herbei! Diese flankierenden Mogu setzen einen Überhandschlag ein und fügen allen Gegnern innerhalb von 4 Metern vor ihnen 273 körperlichen Schaden zu.
Der Kriegsherrenkönig behält 'Flankierbefehle' auch nach seiner Niederlage.
Massiver Angriff – Die Angriffe des Kriegsherrenkönigs sind so brutal, dass kein einzelner Kämpfer ihm widerstehen kann. Seine massiven Angriffe verursachen 44229 körperlichen Schaden, der unter allen getroffenen Gegnern aufgeteilt wird.
Vernichten – Qiang konzentriert sich darauf, vor ihm befindliche Gegner zu vernichten, und fügt dabei Gegnern innerhalb von 20 Metern vor ihm 39490 Schaden zu.
Undurchdringlicher Schild – Der Kriegsherrenkönig setzt seinen undurchdringlichen Schild ein, um Immunität gegen jegliche Angriffe und Zauber zu erhalten. Wenn er, solange der undurchdringliche Schild aktiv ist, von einer schädlichen Fähigkeit oder einem schädlichen Zauber getroffen wird, rächt sich Qiang mit einem zusätzlichen Angriff.

Meng der Irre

Wenn die Spielercharaktere den wahnsinnigen König besiegen, bleibt dieser trotz seines geschwächten Zustands weiterhin im Kampf, setzt jedoch nur noch seine Fähigkeit 'Wahnsinnerweckender Schrei' ein.

Wahnsinnerweckender Schrei – Der wahnsinnerweckende Schrei von Meng dem Irren lässt sämtliche Gegner wahnsinnig werden, verursacht alle 3 Sek. 1501 Schattenschaden und lässt alle Gegner einander hassen. Spielercharaktere erhalten ihre geistige Gesundheit zurück, nachdem sie 877 Schaden durch einen anderen Spielercharakter erlitten haben.
Der Zaubererkönig behält 'Wahnsinnerweckenden Schrei' auch nach seiner Niederlage.
Wahnsinnig – Der wahnsinnige König wird alle 0.5 Sek. noch verrückter. 'Wahnsinnig' erhöht den vom wahnsinnigen König verursachten körperlichen Schaden um einen dem Zweifachen seines aktuellen Wahnsinns entsprechenden Anteil. Wenn der Wahnsinn des verrückten Königs 100 erreicht, wechselt seine Persönlichkeit zur Feigheit.
Feigheit – Der wahnsinnige König wird alle 0.5 Sek. noch verrückter. Feigheit lässt den wahnsinnigen König den der Hälfte seines aktuellen Wahnsinns entsprechenden Schaden abwehren. Wenn der Wahnsinn des verrückten Königs 100 erreicht, wechselt seine Persönlichkeit zu Wahnsinnig.
Verrückter Gedanke – Ein verrückter Gedanke blitzt im verzerrten Geist des wahnsinnigen Königs auf, der seinen Wahnsinn um 10 erhöht.
Im Delirium – Der wahnsinnige König wird wütend, sodass sein Wahnsinn doppelt so schnell zunimmt.

Subetai der Schnelle

Wenn der Spielercharakter den Banditenkönig besiegt, bleibt dieser trotz seines geschwächten Zustands weiterhin im Kampf, setzt jedoch nur noch seine Fähigkeit 'Plündern' ein.

Plündern – Der Banditenkönig stürmt auf einen beliebigen Spielercharakter zu und plündert alle Gegner im Umkreis von 8 Metern aus, wobei er ihre Besitztümer stiehlt. Der Effekt 'Geplündert' verringert verursachten Schaden und Heilung um 50% und erhöht den erlittenen körperlichen Schaden um 50%.
Der Banditenkönig behält 'Plündern' auch nach seiner Niederlage.
Salve – Subetai entfesselt drei Salven in schneller Folge. Die erste fügt Gegnern 2369 körperlichen Schaden in einem großen kegelförmigen Bereich vor ihm zu; die nächste 4739 in einem mittelgroßen, und die letzte 9478 körperlichen Schaden in einem kleinen Bereich.
Pfeilregen – Der Banditenkönig feuert einen Pfeilregen auf einen beliebigen Spielercharakter und belegt alle Ziele innerhalb von 8 Metern um diesen mit 'Festgenagelt'. 'Festgenagelt' verursacht alle 1 Sek. 16 körperlichen Schaden, bis ein anderer Spielercharakter den Pfeil vom Opfer entfernt.
- Festsetzender Pfeil – Der festsetzende Pfeil verursacht durch 'Festgenagelt' alle 1 Sek. 16 körperlichen Schaden, bis der festsetzende Pfeil zerstört wurde!
Fingerfertigkeit – Schaden verursachende Angriffe auf den Banditenkönig bewirken, dass der Angreifer blind ausgeraubt wird. Der Effekt verringert den zugefügten Schaden und die verursachte Heilung um 50% und die Rüstung um 50%. Der Banditenkönig wird empfänglich für Betäubungseffekte, wenn er Fingerfertigkeit einsetzt.
- Ausgeraubt – 'Ausgeraubt' verringert den verursachten Schaden sowie die hervorgerufene Heilung des Ziels um 50% und erhöht den erlittenen körperlichen Schaden um 50%.

Zian des endlosen Schattens

Wenn die Spielercharaktere den Zaubererkönig besiegen, bleibt dieser trotz seines geschwächten Zustands weiterhin im Kampf, setzt jedoch nur noch seine Fähigkeit 'Unsterbliche Schatten' ein.

Unsterbliche Schatten – Der Zaubererkönig lässt einen unsterblichen Schatten am Standort eines zufällig ausgewählten Spielercharakters entstehen. Der unsterbliche Schatten fügt Spielercharakteren innerhalb von 10 Metern alle 1 Sek. 1185 Schattenschaden zu, bis er zerstört wird.
Der Zaubererkönig behält 'Unsterbliche Schatten' auch nach seiner Niederlage.
- Unsterblicher Schatten – Der unsterbliche Schatten fügt Spielercharakteren innerhalb von 10 Metern alle 1 Sek. 1185 Schattenschaden zu, bis er zerstört wird. Wenn der Zaubererkönig einen unsterblichen Schatten beschwört, fixiert sich dieser auf den nächsten Spielercharakter. Wenn der unsterbliche Schatten stirbt, beginnt er, sich neu zu formen und vereinigende Schatten zu bilden. Nach 30 Sek. vereinigt sich der unsterbliche Schatten vollends und formt sich neu.
  - Vereinigende Schatten – Die vereinigenden Schatten fügen Spielercharakteren innerhalb von 10 Metern alle 5.2 Sek. 1185 Schattenschaden zu. Nach 30 Sek. vereinigt sich der unsterbliche Schatten voll und formt sich neu.
Schattenschlag – Der Zaubererkönig entfesselt einen Schattenschlag auf einen zufällig ausgewählten Spielercharakter, der beim Auftreffen allen Spielercharakteren in einem Umkreis von 8 Metern ums Ziel 3475 Schattenschaden zufügt.
Aufgeladene Schatten – Der Zaubererkönig überzieht einem beliebigen Spielercharakter mit aufgeladenen Schatten und fügt ihm 2369 Schattenschaden zu, der dann auf weitere Ziele im Umkreis von 8 Metern überspringt.
Schild der Dunkelheit – Der Zaubererkönig schützt sich mit einem Schild der Dunkelheit, der immer, wenn ihn eine Schaden verursachende Fähigkeit trifft, allen Gegnern 4739 Schattenschaden zufügt.
- Dunkelheit – Fügt allen Gegnern 4739 Schattenschaden zu.
