Terrace of Endless Spring is a raid instance, introduced in the World ofWarcraft: Mists of Pandaria expansion. It is part of Tier 14 in terms of PvEraid progression. This is the third raid instance made available toplayers in Mists of Pandaria, opening on the 13th of November.

The entrance to the instance is located in The Veiled Stair, close to theTavern in the Mists and the Black Market Auction House. The raid houses 4boss encounters, available in 10-man, 25-man, and LFR game modes. The 10 and25-man game modes also have a Heroic version, which is unlocked after the finalboss encounter is defeated on Normal mode.

The instance is only available to players who have defeated the final bossin the Heart of Fear,Grand Empress Shek'zeer. It houses4 boss encounters.

Currently, we offer you the following strategy guides:

The first encounter of the instance is against the Protectors of theEndless. This is a council-style fight, very similar to the encounter againstThe Iron Council in Ulduar. Your raid will face three bosses at the sametime, and each time one boss is killed, the remaining bosses grow strongerand gain new abilities. A peculiarity of this encounter is that killing thebosses in the most difficult order provides higher item level, Elite gear.

The second encounter is against Tsulong, a Cloud Serpent that is locked ina struggle against the Sha's corruption. The boss has two phases that alternatethroughout the fight, on a fixed timer. During one phase, Tsulong is hostileand you must damage him and avoid several abilities, while in the other he isfriendly, and you must heal him while protecting him (and your raid) fromseveral adds. The damage and healing done to the boss in the two phases areconflated in such a way that they both contribute equally towards you finallydefeating the boss. This is truly a remarkably interesting encounter.

Lei Shi is the third boss of the instance. This is a single-phase encounter,the difficulty of which ramps up as boss' health decreases. The fight hasrelatively few abilities, and it is not very complicated, so we imagine thatthe healing and DPS requirements for it will be high.

The Sha of Fear reigns over the Terrace of Endless Spring, and constitutesthe final encounter of the instance. Unlike most end-raid fights, thisencounter does not have many different phases. The most important aspect ofthe fight is that several members of your raid will regularly be sent to adistance platform to fight and defeat a rather powerful enemy, before beingable to return to fighting the boss itself. It is a quite complex and difficultencounter.
