Somewhat to my surprise, you can use the 'helpers' against each other, once you have one.
1. Defeat at least 1 helper (H!) by yourself.
2. The next day, recruit H1 to help you.
3. Pick up the quest to defeat the next helper (H2).
4. Challenge and defeat H2, with H1's help.Made it a lot easier for this healer who uses his undergeared dps spec only for questing and dailies

A World of Warcraft quest in Townlong Steppes. Facts and objectives from the current retail game data.
The highest voted Wowhead comments for this page. They are community notes, not TheWoWDB comments.
Until a fix is put in, this quest will be nigh impossible to complete post-stat squish. The NPC has a Power World Shield effect that is worth 75,000 hp - or about 4 times her actual health pool! Fortunately it can be purged by players with such an ability.
As a Warlock the only interrupt we have is Fear... which she is immune to.
This fight is very challenging and I have not yet figured out a way to damage her faster than she kills me or my void-walker.

Description
The Shado-Pan brothers and sisters continue to whisper of your deeds, {name}. In fact, Yalia herself has taken quite an interest in your studies. She wishes to challenge you in the training ring. You would do well to impress her. If you do, she just may be willing to help you in the future.
