Since [item=133997] is a Toy in Legion, here's a quick guide for it:
Simply enter Zul Gurub on Heroic Mode and right at the entrance [npc=53151] will offer the prequestBooty Bay's Interests. For the quest you have to kill 2 Bosses in Zul Gurub and [npc=52148] himself. Since you cant kill [npc=52148] directly, you have to kill one [npc=52167] before you start the encounter. Upon reaching P2, pull one [npc=52167], move to a chain & let the [npc=52167] jump on you. Repeat it 2 more times and Jindo is defeated.
Loot the quest item, complete the quest at [npc=53151] and fly to Janeiro's Point near Booty Bay.

I know this is an older quest now, but it's the kind of quest that has been rattling around in my log taking up space for over a year and I finally decided to do it. Based on many people I know in the same situation, not having ever finished this quest past this point, and the fact that I found almost no information on how to complete it, I decided I'd fill everyone in after figuring it all out myself in order to save you some time and effort. For those of you who haven't been in ZG since it was changed from a 10 man raid to a 5 man heroic (like myself up until I did this quest), it's a lot different in some places and very similar in others.

So first the big question: I did manage to solo this on my Ret Pally, avg. ilvl 500 exactly. However, I wasn't able to solo it on my MM Hunter, avg. ilvl 496, or my Fury Warrior, avg. ilvl 480. I don't think it was the small difference in gear so much as my Pally's ability to heal himself while putting out good dps and being able to mitigate a good deal of damage. I don't know what to tell you about other classes as I've not tried with any others. You might want to two-man this.

OK, so you need to get the quest item, the Zul'Gurub Stone, from the last boss in ZG, Jin'Do the Godbreaker. To kill him, you do not need to finish all the sub-bosses first. You only have to kill the two High Priests, Priest Venoxis, and Priestess Kilnara. This allows you to go directly to Jin'Do the Godbreaker for your quest item, without having to kill any of the other bosses.

So, when you first enter the instance, the first boss used to be the Bat-Boss, but she is no more. Instead you move straight across the first two bridges heading east to your first encounter at "The Coil" with High Priest Venoxis. The fight is similar to the original and not terribly difficult at 90. After that, you move back west across the bridge you just came across, and move north across the next two bridges to arrive just southwest of the Temple of Bethekk. Dino mobs to the left, Troll mobs to the right, you can carefully thread the needle and aggro neither and walk up the steps to Kilnara's Lair. Trash mobs inside, not many, until you get downstairs and see Kilnara, where you move inside the room and engage her to have the door slam shut and fight 'till the death. It's basically the same as old ZG, at about 50% she transforms and summons a million panther beasts to help chew on your face, burst her down at this point as all those adds do a lot of damage.

Once your done with her, you move back south across one bridge to the center island with Jin'Do, and travel up to the top in the rear just like in the old ZG. I engaged the boss, and had no problem with it being a traditional tank n' spank until at some low point, maybe 40%-ish? Jin'Do became immune to attacks at the back of the platform, and all of the spirit ghost type mobs that didn't interact with you before now suddenly attack you and more spawn constantly.

Jin'Do is now chained to the deck at 3 or 4 points, and these chains are immune to all attacks. What you need to do is, much like in the original ZG, go down the stairs to the left or right and grab a Gurubashi Spirit, the really big guys standing 1 per corner on the staircase platform around the place, they look like berserkers, and drag one to the top to a chain tie down point, where it's targetable. Stand on it while gently dpsing the Spirit, as the goal here is to have him cast body slam on you while you're standing on the chain end (You don't want to kill him before he body slams). This will break the chain's defenses, and allow you to damage it and ultimately kill it. Once the Spirit has slammed you and the chain, quickly kill it and that chain. Kill off the group of ghosts that have started to mob you so you don't get behind and bogged down, and then rinse, repeat, until all the chains are gone.

Once you've done this, the fight's over. Jin'Do does not return to the mortal plane for a final phase, he just does some cinematic and dies, becoming Jin'Do the Broken. The stone to complete your quest will be on his body as loot, one for each member of your party on the quest, if there's more than one of you in your case of course.

Like I said, I did this with a bit of difficulty solo as a Ret Paladin with ilvl 500 gear, more because it was a learning curve and took me a few tries to figure out how to kill Jin'Do with the chain thing. I think a Blood Knight or a Feral Druid or even a Warrior might be able to do this with relative ease solo as well, also with minimum gear around 500-ish.

Description

Look, {name}. You've helped out plenty so far, but that's not going to be enough. I need these crazy trolls stopped, or at least stopped from getting into Booty Bay. I'm going to send a man in to oversee the action, but I want you to go into Zul'Gurub and make something happen. At the very least, I want you to find me something that will help keep these trolls out of Booty Bay. You do that and we'll treat you right.
