Who's that Shandris, you may ask? And why would you kite her to org? Here's the answer:

YouTube - Odras Kites Shandris Feathermoon (watch from ~2m50)

Kitting her requires you to regen your life (or have a healer) while dotting her and avoiding her wtf aoe spell.

I currently do it well on my warlock (arena geared). You dont really need spell hit, even though it will help a bit regenerating your life if you're affliction specced. This is highly recommended!
You don't really need a pet as it will die pretty fast anyway. Fel armor and corruption will heal you more than necessary.

Install guide:
Put the .cs file into your HBDirectory/Bots/ folder. That's it.

Howto guide:
1. You do need a warlock. 85, yes. Set your pet to passive, following stance.
2. Load HB, select the ShandrisBuddy bot and start it. It won't do anything right now, don't worry.
3. While the bot is loading navmesh data (and freezing), move to feralas, clean a few guards around here and wait for the "Ready for action. Pull Shandris when you're ready!" message in HB log.
4. Pull her using curse of tongues at the top of the 'stairs'. She's not hitting that hard, don't worry.
5. The bot will beep if you're low life, dead or near Orgrimmar.
6. The bot will stop once it reaches Orgrimmar's auction house.

NPC Location: Shandris Feathermoon - NPC - World of Warcraft

Notes:
The bot will freeze for a long time if you don't already have kalimdor mesh data. Don't worry about it and get a coffee.
Her guards will follow you to orgrimmar if they're not killed on the road. Don't pay any attention to them anyway.
I do manually summon a new voidwalker each time mine dies as soul link helps a bit. I'm testing a new version that actually handles that. Fixed
Health/Mana regen behaviors are broken, although you may not need them anyway... Will release a fixed version soon. Fixed

Whats the point of killing her do u get epics or sometihng?
 
Her aoe insta kills anyone in 30 yards. That's all.

And well, she also got around 69mio hp.

Small update here, it worked flawlessly. Gamon died.
 
This should be converted to kite the whale shark in Vashj. how to keep the bot knowing to stay 10-20 yards at all times could be an issue.

Well, that's the same for Shandris, except you must be 30 yards away (20-25 with lag).

Testing a new version with pet summoning management (soulburn + demonic rebirth). Also made it go to the AH instead of the entrance, and enabled the Navigator instead of using click to move (stuck issues on mines...).
 
Hmm, small update here. She repoped an hour ago and it looks like she got an up.

She does heavy melee damage now (and still sucks while shooting). And even worse, but I'd love it if you could confirm that, her special ranged shot now uses the MELEE weapon damage * 125%, which means roughly 30k-40k every 10 seconds. Duh.

I'll add CoEX support to keep my lovely warlock out of range of that shot.

well I guess I can work on the whale shark then. I'll use your cs as a template if that's alright.
 
Sure.

You can try to pull Shandris and see if you're taking 30-40k nature damage every 10 seconds. If yes, she got a 'small' dps increase. Which would actually be awesome as she is/was damn too easy to tank (had to pull Gamon to kill healers).

I'll see if I can manage to kite her using CoEX first, and then update this CC if it works. It would require a quite straight path without any sharp bend though.

CoEX range: 35y (glyphed)
Corr range: 40y
Shandris 40k shot range: 35y

=> 5 yards safe margin, assuming we'll take a shot or two each time we need to refresh CoEX. She's quite slow as she needs to stop running for a second to shoot; add CoEX on that and maybe the speed increase boots enchant and it should be working fine again :-)

garoboldy: wait a day or two before porting this code as there are a few mistakes on it. I'll post the updated version as soon as I'll get it working using CoEX.
 
Freaking good news!

She seems to be sometimes bugged and hit really hard. A friend of mine moved her to orgrimmar. Now that she's back to Feralas, she's again hitting me around 7k. Botting her again, uhuh.
 
Updated!

- mana/health regen fixed
- targeting fixed
- stuck issues fixed. The bot will jump every 2 seconds.
- added curse of tongues
- will cast aggro spell every 3s
- auto voidwalker summoning if pet dies (be sure that your pet is set to passive and you have the demonology talent)
- better panic behavior
- improved spell cast management
 
So, on a side note, this will fail MISERABLY for druids. (Even resto spec'd)

I have to manually step in to heal myself, or she starts critting for 50-60k

As far as I can tell, there's no real way to keep her aggro'd long enough for this to get far. (She consistently resets when just leaving the village)

Using Insect Swarm/Moonfire/FF, etc. All seem to be fairly useless in the long run.

Wish I had a high level lock to test this on now ^^
