If youre having trouble finding him make sure you're wearing your "Spectrecles" and make sure you're looking up. He doesnt patrol along the ground, he flies high over the island as the quest says.
We had a hunter stand on one of the higher hills on the island and pull him down to the ground. tank and spank kinda fight.
There is a mountain peak at 69.8, 85.9 that your group can stand on and pull him when he flies towards you.
He doesn't cleave, or knockback or anything special at all, just melee dmg.
As a 70 warrior with 12k armour, he was hitting me for about 1,000 dmg a time.

Description
In life, Gorefiend was a monster, but in death, Gorefiend was an unmitigated terror. To the southeast you will find Netherwing Ledge. What was once part of the mainland of Shadowmoon is now a floating island in the sky. Vhel'kur, spawn of Deathwing, once called it his home, but now knows it as his grave. He flies an endless circle above the island, seething at his defeat to Gorefiend. If you are to recover the Gorefiend's armor, it is Vhel'kur that you must defeat.

Where this quest fits
Before this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Teron Gorefiend - Lore and Legend
Stories abound about the life of Teron Gorefiend, but most are just that - stories. We do not know what happened to Gorefiend after he returned to Draenor. The only thing we are certain of is that he has already died once.
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Divination: Gorefiend's Cloak
Many a cruel act he committed but none so cold as the slaughter of the clerics of Karabor. After Gul'dan's Horde defeated the draenei of Karabor, the surviving clerics of Karabor were marched out, told that they were to be taken to Hellfire Citadel as prisoners of war.
