I came to find out if it was doable. For my low-mod spriest lvl 73, it showed 1446k hp. It CAN be feared and I was able to take it down without too much trouble.
It's up on a ledge that is accessible (i.e. not out of "reach" from the bottom).

Where to go

Pins are the quest’s own POI points from the current retail client, projected onto the in-game zone map. The game marks one blob as the quest’s turn-in; the rest are objective areas. Points that fall outside a map’s window are dropped rather than guessed at.
