Tsulong is an encounter with two alternating phases called Night and Day, lasting 2 minutes each.
In 10 man mode he requieres 2 tanks, 2-3 healers and 5-6 DDs.

From the Lore PoV you don't want to kill Tsulong, but do some kind of exorcism on him, to purge the sha corruption. This is reflected by the fact that you fight him in the night, when the Sha of Fear overwhelms him and heal him at daytime.

Tsulong starts in the night phase with 100% HP. Any damage you deal, is heal for the daytime phase.
For example: You deal in the night 35% of his maximum HP as damage to him, so in the night he has 65% HP, while he has at daytime 35% HP. The fight finishes either when you bring him to 0% at night, or to 100% at day.

The Night Phase
Tsulongs abilities are very similar to all drakes abilities, except he has no tail lash.

Schattenodem is a frontal cone attack, dealing high damage and creating a debuff, which increases shadow damage taken by 100%. As nearly all damage sources are shadow in this phase, a tankswitch is recommended after the breath.
Tsulong stacks Schreckensschatten at any targets every second, which deals high damage after reaching 9 stacks or higher. This debuff is purged by running through a Sonnenstrahl he creates at random positions. Standing in the Sonnenstrahl will decrease it's radius and make it despawn after some time, so players should move through the sunbeam only for dispelling issues.
Alpträume is a projectile Tsulong fires in a volley. It is indicated by a swirly zone and targets take high damage and are feared for 3 seconds, when standing in this zone at the time of impact.

An idiot-proof way to handle the stacking debuff mechanic, as well as the volley, is to grorp beneath a sunbeam and move through it, when a volley is shot. This will most likely decrease your raids damage, but is an easy way not to $%^& up on those mechanics.

The Day Phase
In the day phase, Tsulong stands in the middle of the room and summons different kinds of Sha.

Fleischgewordener Schrecken are Sha with high HP. They cast a debuff called Terrorisieren on random targets (including Tsulong) which deals very high damage and has to be dispelled asap.
Five Entsetzensbrut spawn when a Fleischgewordener Schrecken is killed. They cast Entsetzen which deals very high shadow damage to all targets within 30 yards and fears them as well. If Tsulong's Breath Attack has a too long cooldown, you want to bomb them down asap. It is recommended to stunlock them, but don't waste more than one DD on assisting the tanks with them.
Instabiles Sha move from the outside of the room to Tsulong. They can be stunned and slowed, which helps a lot to prevent them from reaching their target: Exploding on Tsulong.
They cast Instabiles Geschoss on their way to Tsulong, dealing high damage to a target and damiging the Sha as well. It can and should be interrupted, but preventing every Instabiles Geschoss is impossible.

Tsulong tries to assist the players to fight the Sha with his ability:

Sonnenodem which is a 60° frontal cone attack, dealing ~4,000,000 damage to the sha, restoring 25% maximum mana of every friendly target hit (in this phase Tsulong is a member of your raid group) and playing a buff on friendly targets hit. In Licht gebadet increases the healing done by 500% for 6 seconds.

In this phase the damage dealer have to react quickly and kill all Instabiles Sha asap, but should be in range of the healers, who stand in front of Tsulong. The Entsetzensbrut should not be any problem, but sometimes a fear is possible, stunlock them by the tanks or kill them with bomb damage.

The Transition
The most critical point in this fight is the transition from day to night.
Tsulong has to be faced away from your raid and the remaining Entsetzensbrut have to be killed, before they spread chaos by fearing someone. When this moment has passed, the rest of this encounter is just rinse and repeat.

In addition to the abilities above, he has an 8 minute enrage timer.

Somehow I messed one wave of the Entsetzensbrut up.

LFR:

The point of the fight is to do 250M-ish combined healing and damage to the boss. Both are necessary to beat the enrage timer.

Night Phase -
Tanks swap after getting breathed on. They should not tank the boss facing the sunbeam (sad that I have to say that, but it wiped us three times.)

When you get to 5 stacks of the debuff, run through the sunbeam to clear it.

The reason the raid doesn't just stand in the sunbeam is because it gets used up over time and people will drop pools of fearing ooze for everyone else, making it difficult or impossible to clear your stacks.

Lots of raid damage, basically.

Day Phase - (the harder one, though with less damage)
Healers stand in front of the dragon. Getting breathed on gives 500% healing buff (for 6 seconds only, so make it count) and returns 25% of your mana. Heal the dragon. Dispel Terrorize from the boss immediately.

Tank big adds in front of the boss, as its breath does massive damage to the adds. AoE down the oozes that spawn when it dies. They explode and do big damage to the boss (bad in this phase.)

DPS kills Unstable Sha (and at a lower priority, the big adds) and must kill them before they reach the boss. They can be killed by slowing them and then doing minimal damage (200k or so) as they hurt themselves every time they cast. It's better to burn them down to reduce raid damage, but if you're the only one fighting them on one side, you do what you've got to do. AoE down the Fright Spawn that appear after the big adds die (very low health, but needs to be done.)

tl;dr version:
Night: Run through the beam to clear your stacks, tanks swap after each breath, stay alive. Don't just stand in the beam.

Day: Healers stand in front of the dragon and heal it. Tanks tank the big adds in front of the dragon. DPS kills Unstable Sha > Fright Spawn > Embodied Terror. Fright Spawn only appear after Embodied Terrors die; they need to die fast, but there are just a few and they can be AoE-ed down in seconds by only a few players.

I'm a bit sad to report that Tsulong will register as immune to Handauflegung during the day phase. Oh the possibilits that could have been...

Kommentar von TGFseb15

Anyone else reminded of The Infinite Dragonflight by this boss? A golden cloud serpent that turns black and white when under the Sha's influence?

Speculation time: Sha (of Fear maybe) will somehow come into contact with Nozdormu, corrupting him, and as a result, driven by his fears, corruption will spread (Like Shek'zeer and the mantid) thus forming the Infinite Dragonflight.

The Day Phase woke up some memories from the Valithria Dreamwalker days.

Kommentar von 203799

楚龍 (chǔlóng) most likely translates as Dragon of Suffering. The second character is pretty unambiguously dragon, while the first has a number of different meanings I was able to look up and probably many more I was not. Seems appropriate enough though!

Chulong is much closer to the actual pronunctiation as well so it's kind of a mystery why they chose to romanize it this way; what English speakers would pronounce as "tsu" is more like the zu or possibly cu sounds of Mandarin.

Kommentar von SolidSnack

Tsulong? That's what Shi said!

Kommentar von Chaix

Tsulong is most likely the fifth celestial in pandaria's version of the guardian beasts.

Huang Long (a golden dragon) supposedly reigned of the central area of the heavens; Tsulong (a "heavenly" golden cloud serpent) is found in what appears to be the same area as the vale of eternal blossoms (located in the center of pandaria).

Kommentar von attoffy09

I was looking at my boss unit frame and saw that Tsulong had Horn of Winter on him; and the buff gave him 10% extra damage. Can anyone confirm that this actually happens?

Kommentar von 853382

Be careful, you might hit the berserk timer if you take tsu long -.-

Kommentar von steppman2

You should really watch what you do in this fight, just finished a LFR where he had almost every buff on him (given out by the raid after battle rezzing) and several times we had hunters MD adds to him. He seems to act as a 26th raid member in almost every way.

Kommentar von Slanor

Mistweavers are very OP for Day phase.

Kommentar von lisakaps

Upon the transition from Day to Night phase, it is worth to mention that mages can Zauberraub any remaining healing buffs from Tsulong.

Kommentar von edgeblade

So I've done this fight numerous times on LFR as a tank and always tank him right next to the sunbeam (facing away from raid). Is this correct or no? I've seen lots of other tanks put him all over the place. Since everyone stacks in the sun on LFR, (including melee in theory), then melee can't hit him unless he's next to the beam, right? People staying in the beam means less damage going out right? Yes I know it's just LFR and it doesn't really matter, but I'm curious.

Kommentar von Eindrachen

Our guild attempted this one without any form of Kampfrausch (or variations thereof, like Heldentum, Zeitkrümmung, or Uralte Hysterie). We got to 80% on the second Day phase, and then hit the enrage timer. We tried this three times before we conceded defeat and brought in a hunter with Kernhund... and got it in one go.

So. Word to the wise: this is a huge DPS/healing race, and not having some kind of haste spike to really hammer him down fast is a no-no, unless your entire raid is swinging ilvl 522+. We waited for the start of the second night phase, to make sure we were able to down all adds faster (less healer stress, fewer fears) and jump onto Tsulong with almost no pause. We discussed also doing it at the very start, but still won without doing so, so your mileage may vary.

Kommentar von Berrenger

My guild just downed Tsulong by using our warlock's Voidlord as a tank, thus freeing one of our regular tanks to switch into dps spec. We downed him first time using this tactic with about 30 seconds to go before he beserked.

Kommentar von maely

Possibly the best Holy Priest fight ever invented.

I had an LFR yesterday where I sustained 230k HPS over an abnormally long 11-minute fight duration. This LFR had the lowest DPS I've ever seen. In total, I healed Tsulong for 90.7 million HP, and in fact the six healers combined for more healing (day phases) than the nineteen DPS were able to output during the night phases. Just staggeringly low DPS numbers. (We finished the fight in a third day phase.)

Now, why is this such a favorable fight for Holy Priest? Blue chakra during the night phases, Divine Hymn, Divine Insight for extra PoMs, and so forth. My healing numbers are already probably over 100k at this point.

Day phase? Switch to yellow chakra, throw a renew on the boss, and start spamming heals and building stacks of From Darkness Comes Light. Ideally, you want two FDCLs each time a Sun Breath happens.

Then, and here's the real killer, toss a Guardian Spirit onto Tsulong for one of the Sun Breaths in which you have two stacks of FDCL. Your instant-cast heals will hit him for 3-4 million each. If you are lucky enough to proc additional FDCL stacks while you are consuming them during a GSpirit/Sun Breath, you can literally heal Tsulong for 20+ million HP in a matter of seconds.

Funny enough, my #1 heal for the attempt was actually the Echo of Light from Holy Priest mastery (just ahead of GHeal and FHeal both). Just another reason why this is a MUCH better Holy fight than DIsc fight; those Divine Aegis crit bubbles are basically wasted in day phases when you are bomb-healing Tsulong.

Tsulong 10 Normal - Mage solo

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WkNhW2oOggg

Enjoy :)

Kommentar von lapdragon

Fairly simple solo on a guardian druid at 100 - stand in the sunbeams, and just melee away. For phase 2 it's convenient to moonfire the medium-sized sha from range, and then just let them come to you, for phase 3, it's back into the sunbeams and you're done.

Kommentar von Kalasta

Tamable by 9.0 prepatch. I just tamed him!

Kommentar von sakera

Here is my taming story:

Level 50 Worgen bought the book and learned it. Then went to Terrace of Endless Spring & ran it on 25 Heroic. When I attempted to tame Tsulong, it said "Creature not tameable" and thus I could not tame him. I also tried on the LFR version and same result.

However:

Level 47 Goblin had no issues taming him on 10 Normal.
Level 47 Gnome had no issues taming him on 10 Normal.
Level 46 Mag'Har Orc had no issues taming him on 10 Normal.

All characters on same account within same connected realm cluster. All characters had war mode activated (though I doubt that had any effect on the outcomes).

Side note: Worgen was able to eventually tame the same model Serpent in Shado-Pan Monastery (Heroic version didn't work, but Normal version did).

Kommentar von wowwowy

I tried and unfortunately failed to tame the golden form. I started the tame right before Tsulong was about to switch forms hoping it would end on the golden form however golden form instantly broke it because golden form has a separate/untamable model id.

Kommentar von Adalberht

My level 50 Pandaren hunter already successfully tamed Elegon. However an attempt to tame Tsulong failed as it has been noted with many other hunters since 9.0 pre-patch went live. I made the attempt on Heroic, and Beast Lore did have Tsulong listed as tameable. Tsulong could not be tamed in any of its forms during the encounter.

***UPDATE***
I had a heck of a time getting the instance to reset and had help with another account get from a Heroic to Normal run. In addition I talked to the NPC at the entrance and told him to stop the ritual. Between running it with another character in the group who was level 46 and dismissing that NPC the hunter could finally tame Tsulong. Hope this helps anyone else stuck!

Kommentar von jokebakker

My level 50 Worgen hunter just tamed it on 10 normal. While I was sorting out my bags after the tame, it reset so I could go for a second tame or a kill immediately.

Kommentar von LuckyX

Tamable 10 normal.

Kommentar von DaemoniKira

Since it's not mentioned in any of the comments here:
If you're a Hunter looking to tame MoP Serpents, you'll need the Schlangendressur leicht gemacht in order to do so. The book is BoA, but to purchase requires the purchasing character be Exalted with the Order of the Cloud Serpent. The book is purchased from San Rotschuppe in The Jade Forest (at coordinates 56.6, 44.4) for 50g. :)

Kommentar von Vellara

As of DF, I went in and tamed him very easily of course. Waited a few seconds and he spawned again so I was able to get a second. Waited a few more seconds and was able to kill him for loot! Kinda sad he doesn't retain his name, but can always just rename him. :)

Nacht

Nachts kämpft Tsulong mit dem korrumpierenden Einfluss des Sha. Wenn Tsulongs verbleibende Gesundheit nachts auf null gesenkt wird, wird der Einfluss des Sha über ihn aufgehoben. Wenn er 100 Energie erreicht, kann er vorrübergehend den Einfluss des Sha aufheben und der Tag bricht an.

Schreckensschatten – Die von dem Sha in Tsulong geschaffenen Schreckensschatten fügen allen Spielercharakteren 637 Schattenschaden zu und erhöhen den durch Schreckensschatten erlittenen Schaden um 10%. Dieser Effekt ist stapelbar.
Alpträume – Das Sha in Tsulong projiziert Alpträume auf den Standort eines zufälligen Spielercharakters. Die Alpträume verursachen 82 Schattenschaden und versetzen Spielercharaktere im Umkreis von 8 Metern um den Einschlagsort 8 sec lang in Angst und Schrecken.
Schattenodem – Tsulong stößt Sha-Energie in einem kegelförmigen Bereich (30°) vor ihm aus und verursacht so 30 sec lang 5945 Schattenschaden und erhöht den erlittenen Schattenschaden um 100%. Dieser Effekt ist stapelbar.
Sonnenstrahl – Tsulongs Bemühungen, dem Sha zu widerstehen, erlauben es ihm, Spielercharaktere vor den Schreckensschatten zu beschützen. Tsulong beschwört einen Sonnenstrahl auf das Schlachtfeld, der Spielercharakteren, die sich in dem Strahl befinden, Immunität gegen die Schreckensschatten gewährt. Der Bereich des Sonnenstrahls, in dem der Schutz wirkt, wird mit der Zeit kleiner, je mehr Spielercharaktere sich darin befinden.
Das Dunkel der Nacht – Das Dunkel der Nacht erscheint an einem zufälligen Ort und bewegt sich auf den nächsten Sonnenstrahl zu. Wenn das Dunkel der Nacht den Sonnenstrahl erreicht, löscht es diesen aus.

Tag

Am Tag gewinnt Tsulong die Oberhand über die Verderbnis des Sha. Die Spielercharaktere können Tsulong am Tag heilen und ihm helfen. Wenn er während des Tages vollständig geheilt wird, wird der Einfluss des Sha dauerhaft aufgehoben. Wenn er 100 Energie erreicht, korrumpiert das Sha seine Gefühle und die Nacht bricht an.

Fleischgewordener Schrecken – Fleischgewordene Schrecken erscheinen, während das Sha um die Kontrolle über Tsulong kämpft. Wenn die Spielercharaktere einen fleischgewordenen Schrecken vernichten, brechen fünf Exemplare der Entsetzensbrut hervor.
- Terrorisieren – Der fleischgewordene Schrecken wirkt 'Terrorisieren' auf einen zufälligen Spielercharakter und auf Tsulong. Der Schrecken verursacht 10 sec lang alle 1 Sek. 0% der aktuellen Gesundheit des Spielercharakters als Schattenschaden. Tsulong erleidet 10 sec lang alle 2 Sek. 5% seiner Gesamtgesundheit als Schattenschaden.
Entsetzensbrut – Fünf Exemplare der Entsetzensbrut erscheinen, wenn die Spielercharakter einen fleischgewordenen Schrecken zerstören.
- Entsetzen – Eine Entsetzensbrut entfesselt eine Welle von 'Entsetzen', die 2 sec lang Spielercharakteren im Umkreis von 30 Metern 68 Schattenschaden zufügt und sie mit Furcht erfüllt.
Instabiles Sha – Instabile Sha erscheinen um Tsulong herum und beginnen, sich in seine Richtung zu bewegen. Wenn sie ihn erreichen, werden sie ihm eine große Menge an Schattenschaden zufügen.
- Instabiles Geschoss – Das instabile Sha entfesselt schattenhafte Energie auf einen zufälligen Spielercharakter und fügt dem Ziel 71 Schattenschaden zu. Das instabile Geschoss fügt auch dem instabilen Sha 15% seiner maximalen Gesundheit als Schaden zu.
- Instabilität – Wenn ein instabiles Sha Tsulong erreicht, fügt es ihm 1390 Schattenschaden zu und verschwindet.
Sonnenodem – Tsulong atmet Solarenergie in einem kegelförmigen Bereich von 60 Grad vor ihm aus und fügt dem Sha innerhalb von 60 Metern 1308 Naturschaden zu und betäubt es 8 sec lang. Der Atem löst außerdem den Effekt 'In Licht gebadet' bei Spielercharakteren aus, die sich in diesem Bereich befinden.
- In Licht gebadet – Die Wärme der Sonne stellt 25% der Gesamtmana eines Spielercharakters wieder her und erhöht die verursachte Heilung 6 sec lang um 500%.
The Light of Day – Das Licht des Tages erscheint an einem zufälligen Ort. Die Interaktion mit dem Licht des Tages stellt alle 1 Sek. Mana wieder her und erhöht 6 sec lang die verursachte Heilung um 1500%. Die Menge des wiederhergestellten Manas erhöht die verursachte Heilung, verringert aber die Dauer des Effekts.
