These guys are along the top of the gate, just padding or stationary. Did this on my 85 Enhanc Shammy with little trouble, one run of my rotation and the buggers went down.
Name probably comes from the classic D&D adventure series, Against the Giants

What to do
Description
While it's going to be crucial to defeat the Scourge on the ground, we mustn't neglect the gate itself. The flesh giants on the ramparts are capable of hurling massive boulders and chunks of ice, inflicting devastating damage to enemy infantry below. Muster a force and defeat these giants. We need to know just what we're up against in terms of their strength. Oh... and bring me their spines. If memory serves, there's a little trick I can share with you.
Where to go
Pins are the quest’s own POI points from the current retail client, projected onto the in-game zone map. The game marks one blob as the quest’s turn-in; the rest are objective areas. Points that fall outside a map’s window are dropped rather than guessed at.

Where this quest fits
Before this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- That's Abominable!
Abominations... They can be a very capable enemy. I've seen them turn the tide of battle more than once. What few realize, is that they can also be very capable friends. They are not deep thinkers.
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Basic Chemistry
<Thassarian takes the pustulant spines and drains their fluid into a flask.> A little-known quality of the flesh giants... Their spinal fluid interacts with the plague in a very interesting way, turning it into a corrosive acid.
