MOP raids can provide some fun at level 100, and heroic MOP raids can be quite challenging.
i know prot spec is the best for solo-ing old raids but i have to maintain my retribution/holy spec for guild raiding/pvp. therefore, i can only solo as retribution for now.

FYI, if the boss has no target to melee, it will start to channel Song of the Empress which does a lot of damage on us.
the fight begins at 1st platform. when you dps the boss to 80%, it will leaves behind a copy of himself and start flying to 2nd platform. don't chase after the boss to 2nd platform yet because we must kill this copy asap, otherwise this copy will start to channel Song of the Empress if left alone. once the copy is dead, rush to the 2nd platform quickly and melee the boss once to stop the Song of the Empress. take the time to heal yourself to full on this platform.
when you dps the boss to 60%, it will leaves behind another copy of himself and start flying to 3rd platform. this time, we must ignore the copy and chase after the boss because on the 3rd platform, the boss will cast Convert on players, and it will be a wipe since you are the only player in the raid now. the only way is to burn the boss ASAP, which is why i decided to save all my major CD for the 3rdplatform. take note that the 2nd copy (on the 2nd platform which you ignore) will be free to cast Song of the Empress so you may like to use a divine protection or simply LOH yourself at the end.
platform 1 - AW on the copy
platform 2 - AW on the boss
platform 3 - ES + Potion + AW + Sera + Ring + Vial + HA

we can simply zerg these 3 bosses down, they are all very easy and no strategy is needed.
on pull, take your time to build 5 holy power, and then use all CD
ES + Potion + AW + Sera + Ring + Vial + HA
for mel'jarak, you will get stun once, but you can divine shield out of it anyways

this is by far the hardest boss in heart of fear because of the Reshape Life mechanic. if the boss transform you into a Mutated Construct at any time of the fight, it will be a wipe since you are the only player. the strategy is to make sure that this never happen by pushing phases quickly.
1st Reshape Life = 50 seconds
2nd Reshape Life = 40 seconds
to prevent the first Reshape Life, you must finish both phase 1 and phase 2 in less than 50 seconds. and then kill the boss at phase 3 in less than 40 seconds.
in order to push all 3 phases successfully, you need to plan your CD according to the dps requirement.
phase 1 - reduce boss hp to 70% (around 2.7m)
phase 2 - kill the Amber Monstrosity (around 2.8m)
phase 3 - kill the boss (around 6.23m) in 40 secs
phase 3 has the highest dps requirement therefore i save my legendary ring for it.
phase 1 - Potion + AW + Sera
phase 2 - ES + AW + Sera + Vial
phase 3 - Drum + Potion + AW + Sera + Ring
in phase 3, you are going to take a lot of damage. it is necessary to use scared shield + divine protection + LOH in order to survive. when the ring is about to explode, you should also try to use a divine storm and clear all the adds so that the boss take the full damage of the ring itself.

final boss is very easy (as compared to amber-shaper un'sok), the only problem is the last phase where you will get feared and heavy damage, but that is ok, because we can divine shield out of it and bust her down, or we can simply skip the last phase if the legendary ring kill her on explode. she has around 8 mil hp, so you can consider hitting her to around 80% hp, and then unleash all your CD
ES + Potion + AW + Sera + Ring + Vial + HA
when i use my CD around 80+% hp, my ring is able to kill the boss on explode.
