How to Complete the “Show Me Your Moves!” Achievement in Mists of Pandaria Classic

Show Me Your Moves! is one of the trickier achievements in Mogu'shan Vaults, requiring your entire raid group to avoid every attack of a Devastating Combo and unleash an Opportunistic Strike on the same target during the Will of the Emperor encounter. This achievement is part of the Glory of the Pandaria Raider meta achievement, so if you want to get the Reins of the Heavenly Crimson Cloud Serpent mount, you'll need to find a group capable of doing this!

Mogu'shan Vaults Raid Achievements Mogu'shan Vaults Raid Overview Guide

Will of the Emperor is split into two phases, and it's in phase two, when the bosses spawn, that you'll be able to complete this achievement. Take each boss to opposite corners, away from where the adds spawn, and keep them separated.

The bosses will have energy bars that will roughly coincide with one another. When their energy bar reaches 90-100, they will cast a sequence with 5 projectile attacks (10 on Heroic) called Devastating Combo.

Devastating Combo is usually a Tank and Melee DPS mechanic, but for this achievement, everyone in the raid will have to deal with it at least once.

Devastating Combo is split into four different attacks:

Devastating Arc: Left, right, or frontal slash.

Stomp: AoE around the boss.

This sequence is random, but it does have a few rules:

An attack cannot be performed back-to-back.

Stomp will never be the first attack.

Upon successfully dodging all 5 attacks (10 on Heroic), the player will be granted Opportunistic Strike, which gives them an extra button ability that can be used on the boss. You won't get this ability by "dodging" the attacks by being out of range. The objective is to have all 10 or 25 players (much easier on 10-player) of the raid successfully dodge all 5 attacks, then use Opportunistic Strike on the same target.

This means you'll want to have 9 (or 24) players on one boss during a Devastating Combo sequence, dodge all 5 attacks, use Opportunistic Strike on the target, with your most mobile Tank moving over to use his Opportunistic Strike on the boss they are not tanking. Tanks with spells such as Monks' Transcendence and Warriors' Heroic Leap are best suited for this task, but with the aid of Demonic Gateway or Leap of Faith, it can easily be done with any Tank.

Tips to make it easier:

Line up a dance with Titan Gas, as no adds will spawn when it's active.

Enchant your boots with a movement speed increase (most people will have this anyway).

The Stomp into frontal slash will be the most difficult overlap, save Stampeding Roar for this point.

The damage meters will look abysmal when doing this achievement - skip your damage potion and opt for a Swiftness Potion during the dance.

Upon completing the dance and using Opportunistic Strike on the same target, kill the boss to gain the achievement!
