One of the hardest rares I was able to find in Draenor, and almost impossible to solo to most classes and specs. So far only successfully soloed as a Blood DK, and as a brewmaster monk (barely)

She's an Arcane Mage and part of a triumvirate of mobs known as the Sargerei War Council, her two companions are Soulbinder Naylana (Shadowpriest) and Strategist Ankor (Protection Warrior)

The three walk together in a circular patrol route in the Shattari Commons, are are always pulled together. If you manage to kill one or two of them but then die, the ones you killed revive instantly. All 3 must die in order to get any loot from them.

This is the medium threath of the whole bunch and usually the one you'll kill second. She uses arcane missiles, arcane blast, and lays an arcane mine field that you need to carefully move away from.

When you pull these guys be sure to burst down the Shadow Priest as quickly as possible, her mind blasts are absolutely devastating, and will quickly kill you in a matter of seconds, save your interrupts and CCs for her. She can also heal herself to full with Void Mend so save your interrupts for it. Once she's dead, take care of the Archmage. The mage will cast arcane missiles (Which must be interrupted) will swarm the area with Arcane mines (which detonate after a while) and assault you with Arcane Blast (Not interruptible).

When dealing with the mage, interrupt her arcane missiles, avoid her arcane mines, and brace yourself for her arcane blast.

If you manage to survive all 2 of these, the warrior is a simple job, strafe to the side when he does his cleaving attack and don't attempt to kite him, his charge has no cooldown, and deals significant damage.

Good luck.

For what its worth, all they drop is an Intellect Cloak, and about 40 Apexis Crystals. Hardly worth it considering how insanely hard they are.(##RESPBREAK##)520##DELIM##Rankkor##DELIM##

The back is Sargerei Councilor's Drape. I found little to no problem to solo them as a fury war. I think Blz nerfed them already, each has only a 400k-ish HP pool now. They drop 10-ish Apexis crystals as one single mob however.

These are not as hard to solo as it may initially appear. I solo'd them as an Arcane Mage, and any class with in-combat refreshable CC such as Polymorph should be able to kill them by doing the following steps:

1- They patrol in a circle, so prior to them arriving at some of the houses, clear all regular mobs from the area to make sure they don't interfere in the fight. Any of the two house areas will do, just don't try this on the road where the elite demons patrol, as the other patrols may complicate the fight.

2- Once you cleared an area, wait for the 3 rares to walk through it - do not aggro them yet - and CC the Shadowpriest (Soulbinder Naylana). For example I used Polymorph as a Mage.

3- Keep refreshing the CC until the other two rares have walked off a reasonable distance, this distance depends on how fast you can kill the Shadowpriest so it may vary per class and gear. Use all DPS cooldowns and kill the Shadowpriest before the other two rares reach you, who will aggro on you once you begin to attack the Shadowpriest.

4- When you killed the Shadowpriest, CC the Warrior (Strategist Ankor), then proceed to kill the Mage (Archmage Tekar). Once the Mage is killed, simple kill the Warrior last, and you will have successfully killed all three. Remember to interrupt any spell casts and be sure to use your garrison ability (guardian orb is especially useful).

Note: When you killed all three you will see resurrection animations but don't panic, it's a kill.
