Part of the WoD version of the arena quests:
- Ring of Trials: Crushmaul
- Ring of Trials: Raketalon
- Ring of Trials: Hol'yelaa
- Ring of Trials: Captain Boomspark
- Ring of Trials: Roakk the Zealot
The fights are rather simple, and I was easily able to solo them with item level 590. If you're just in questing greens it's probably a good idea to bring a friend or two. Not that the quests are not labeled to be recommended for more than one player.
Hol'yelaa is a Draenei riding on a Elekk. He has a ground stomp which you should move out of, but get back into melee range, because otherwise he'll keep shooting projectiles at you.
Quest

Solo'd on a level 98 BM hunter with 550 ilvl, the others were soloable as well.
His abilities to watch for are Ground Stomp, Gore and A ranged attack which is a missile/projectile of some sort.
Strategy:
Stay in melee range to avoid taking damage from his ranged attack.
Watch for Ground Stomp, it has a long cast time and is easily avoidable. Strafe out and back in, giving him as little time as possible to hit you with his ranged ability.
Gore has a much shorter cast time, try to be ready to use deterrence when he casts it.
Possibly an Old Yeller reference? His name is Hol'Yelaa and is supposedly crazy. Old Yeller DID get rabies...hmmmmmm. :)

Description
You won your first two fights, but it's only going to get tougher from here! Your next fight is against Hol'yelaa, a former rangari who is as crazy as they come. No, really... Hol'yelaa is bonkers! Years ago, while on a scouting mission, he single handedly saved his entire rangari unit from a pack of Garn. But something inside of him snapped.... It wasn't long before Hol'yelaa went completely marbles and turned on his own unit! Alright, the pep talk is over! Get in there and kick some ass!
