After I died a ton of times, I realized this quest suffers from don't stand in the fire syndrome. Avoid standing in the black smokey circle he casts... not that we shouldn't have learned that lesson already. =)
Okay, Got out of ranged 3 times when I tried him as a goblin rogue 82.
Now here is the important part:
Swim about 2 feet below him and start DPSing, like many of the large mobs in this area you can't dps at body level but at their feet. This guy has a HUGE case of that.
Grats on finally finishing this quest guys!

Where this quest fits
Before this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Scalding Shrooms
We think that we have a use for the merciless ones that your friend from the cave delivered to us. But I need a preservative for it. Down below in the Scalding Chasm are some mushrooms with the properties that I need. Bring some back up to me and I'll see what I can do.
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Unplug L'ghorek
L'ghorek is the ancient that rests upon the shelf across from us. It is being controlled and its life energies slowly consumed by something immense beneath us. There is a cave known as the Undershell down below L'ghorek.
