I had some trouble completing this on my lvl72 rogue. Here are some tips I figured out:
- Make sure you pull the guys away from the Destructive Ward. They're buffed with Smoldering Bones which will periodically tick the ward down.
- Let one of the adds beat on the Ward while you finish off an existing add. Don't pick up more than one.
- If you're about to die, let all adds beat on the Ward. The charging is quite quick and the Ward has a lot of life. I had 5% life and I let 4 adds beat on the Ward and still completed the quest. You really only need to kill the first three adds.
Good luck!
I tried this 4 times as a priest, and died every time to a horde of skeletons, spawning way faster than I could kill them. Even a passing Snowfall Elk agroed the stone, and I can confirm it can no longer be healed. The only good thing is that the skeletons count towards No One To Save You.

Description
They're drawing power from the bones of my dead brothers... I have no love for the cult, but I'm baffled by their audacity. There will be no mercy shown for them... not that I ever would have anyway. Ensure that they have no place to flee when the slaughter starts. Place a destructive ward at the end of the path leading out of the shrine... where the road starts to give way to snow. Defend it until it is fully charged.

Where this quest fits
Before this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- The Obsidian Dragonshrine
The Scourge come. Korialstrasz calls upon his allies in a futile attempt to save their Ruby Dragonshrine, but it seems the good graces of the red flight don't extend to saving the shrines of the other flights. Surprised? I'm not.
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- No One to Save You
We will spare no one. Outside, lowly necrolytes and their skeletal servants shame my land with their presence. Slaughter them all.
