Soloed with a level 70 Protection specced Paladin with average gear. This is how:
- Used Improved Righteous Fury, Holy Shield and Blessing of Sanctuary.
- Opened with Avenging Wrath so that Forbearance would have faded in case I needed to bubble. If you're with the Alliance, proccing the DoT from Seal of Vengenace while AW is active will cause it to keep the 30% bonus damage even after it expires.
- Judged a Seal of Wisdom to regen mana, then used Seal of Vengenace for the rest of the fight.
When the big one died, I usually had 30-50% Health and ~10% mana left. The small ones were relatively easy to kill with a judged and an active Seal of Wisdom (they do around 100 damage to someone with 10k armor, which was fully blocked each time). Of course, it's not necessary to kill them, since they don't drop anything, and despawn shortly after leaving combat.I've seen Hunters solo this as well, by just nuking them, spam healing their pets, then running out of range to Feign Death.
Hope it helped :)

Description
To the northeast is an area called the Netherstone, a landmark not seen when this was a lush, green land. Newly-exposed crystal formations have shown us a mineral we've called farahlite in honor of this land's former identity. The tiny amount of farahlite we've mined has already proven popular with our clients. The highest grade of the mineral comes not from static deposits, but from the giants around the Netherstone. I can offer you a cut of the profits if you'll help supply the higher grade farahlite.
