Raid Guides for Mogu'shan Vaults in Mists of Pandaria Classic
Mogu'shan Vaults is the first raid introduced in Mists of Pandaria, located in the Vale of Eternal Blossoms. This raid takes players deep into a long-sealed Titan facility from the past, once used by the Mogu to harness untold ancient powers. With six bosses, this raid features a mixture of ancient mechanical constructs, corrupted spirits, and powerful Mogu warlords, offering a blend of lore-rich storytelling and diverse encounters that reveal much of Pandarias history. Mogu'shan Vaults sets the stage for Pandaria's endgame content and introduces players to the deeper mysteries of the Titan influence on the continent and Azeroth as a whole.
Getting into Mogu'shan Vaults in Mists of Pandaria
Mogu'shan Vaults can be found in Kun-Lai Summit at the North-Eastern edge of the map. Fly up to the raid entrance, which is found on the side of the mountain on the Mogu built platform.

The first part of Mogu'shan Vaults contains both The Stone Guard and the Feng the Accursed encounters that players must defeat in order to continue further into the raid.
Next you'll travel through the outside of vaults as you engage Gara'jal the Spiritbinder before heading back into the vaults and face The Spirit Kings.
In the last section of this raid you will be able to face Elegon, found off to the right, and the final encounter Will of the Emperor. These are the final encounters players will face in the Mogu'Shan Vaults and present a larger challenge than the previous bosses.
