TheWoWDBYou can access to Naxxanar (where the 3 elites are) from Temple of En'kilah. Enter the temple and turn right, there's an orb to use and then a portal to enter right after.
First floor [ Luthion and Vanthryn ]
When you're inside Naxxanar there are some necro who cast fireball/frostbolt (easy non elite mobs), clear the ones you need to get to Luthion and Vanthryn who are in this floor. They are both melees and they hit around 800/900 on me (moonkin with 15k armor) but they are definitely snarable so shouldn't be a problem for most classes to solo.Second floor [ Prince Valanar ]
When you're finished with them, go where you got ported but just 2 yards up (remember Naxxramas?) and go to the next floor of Naxxanar. There's some deathblade on your way to Prince Valanar but they are easy non elite mobs, clear them and get to him. Valanar casts 2.3k shadowbolts and he hits on me (moonkin with 15k armor) around 1300/1400. You can avoid shadowbolts just using line of sight. If you're a healer this is the easiest of the three elites since you can just heal up the bolts and keep up the dps all the time. As stated above, if you have bt shadow resist gear you should take him down without any problems at all.As a moonkin I soloed them easily, dunno about melees like wars and rogues or priests. For wars and rogues, you can probably nuke them down using a couple of cooldowns or you can just snare the first two, go out of los and bandage if you need.
If you wanna go easy bring someone with you. This should be the last quest of Taunka'le.

If you're having trouble getting the blue teleporter working (which takes you to the second floor), simply press jump while you're standing in the teleporter.
Some clarification on how to actually get to the places. Initially you are trying to get with in the Necropolis that is floating over head. When you enter the castle through the hallway go to your right and there is a glowing table/pedestal on a mound. Walk up to the table and jump to be ported up to the necropolis (it may freeze for a second like your computer locked up). Once your in the Necropolis you will kill the the first two Luthion and Vanthryn. Once they are killed look back at the center of the room and you will see the middle has two glowing areas of different colors (blue and

Description
On the lowest tier of the Temple City, there is a gray altar bathed in light. Step into it to gain entry to the dread necropolis Naxxanar. Be cautious, {name}. Prince Valanar will certainly be defended by his personal retainers, who will give their lives to keep you from ascending to the top level of the necropolis. You must find your way through the necropolis to the prince's seat. If you fail to defeat him, {name}, I fear my people will never know the safety Icemist offers.
