Please add the infomation here to the "Shen" mob database..

HNMLS Overture on Seraph just took this bad boy down, was quite a fight, took around 2 hours, mainly due to lack of infomation about this HNM. After 2 hours of kiting this guy around, and having to deal with his pesky Elemental pets, we killed him! His drops(minus the bird feather!):

Drops

Info about Shen:
around 75% after popping him, he seems to summon his Pets to aid him..This wouldn't be a problem, if he didn't resummon each time one was killed, and the pets will attack whoever has Shen's hate. This means Shen can never truely be tanked, just kited with the elemenetals. Shen does poison AoE, 1 or 2 random high-dmg spike moves that did 1k+ to our taru BLMs.
Shen likes to do the normal "Shell" move that his mob-type does. When he does this, *no* dmg can be done to him whatsoever, and he regens HP. The best counter we could do was just spam WS and Tier4 spells once he was up and running. Because the rate of his shell move is quite high, this makes him very easy to kite for a NIN, as I said, the only real problem is keeping the elementals away, since they cast Flood(Instant casting!!!), Waterga3 and Water4.

Not sure if we're the first to kill, but we're the first to kill that I've seen!

(Did I get the image links correct?)
