You won't like this one! Cleared the fire shrine ok, but went to Big Baobob only to find him under attack by about 50 Demonic invaders. No
way I could handle that alone, so I guess I'll have to abandon the quest. Hate that after doing all the work!

OK -- found the solution 2 hours later. When you're ready to turn in quest to Big Baobob, run through crowd of attackers and stand right between his legs. Click on him and turn in quest -- you won't take any damage. He'll give you new quest to kill 30 attackers. Don't move, accept quest, and pick off attackers one at a time from between his legs. Attackers are weak and die easily, just take your time -- you don't take much damage, and the reward is worth the effort. NOTE: If you're a hunter like I was, set pet for "Passive" before running in -- other-wise you'll lose him. LUCK!

Actually, I've found they're ridiculous easy to kill. It should be pointed out that in a lot of the new Cataclysm quests where you have to kill large quantities of mobs, they either make it easier for you to kill them (I guess low armor?), OR they give you a vehicle with special skills to kill several at once (a good example would be the Shatterspear Vale quest where you have to kill like 50 of them as well as take down 5 buildings). They (the specific mobs in this quest) also don't aggro like normal monsters do. You have to pretty much attack them first before they attack you.
