About Gate of the Setting Sun
For generations, a massive wall called the Serpent's Spine has protected the denizens of Pandaria from periodic assaults by the rampaging, insect-like mantid. This brutal race's cycle of aggression recently began earlier than expected, catching the wall's defenders off guard. As the mightiest mantid warriors charge the battle-worn gates, Pandaria must hold back the most devastating army in the land's recorded history.
From the in-game Adventure Guide.

I just failed this achievement by killing Raigonn too quickly. I killed him before any adds spawned and did not get the achievement. At level 100 you will need to dance with Raigonn, for a while, to allow him to spawn the adds.
Just let the tank collect all reinforcements comming from the crushed gate and bring him down by sending the dps up to his weak spot via the cannons and then killing him as usual while the fixiated party member kites him.
In addition: Watch out for the locust swarm on the ground. (simply don't move into the red circle)
