TheWoWDBWould definitely recommend walking around and picking up the scrolls on the fire side of the area. They give you a one-time use 700,000 damage AoE that radiates out from you and is more than adequate for pulling huge groups of ghosts at a time if you have enough AoE to finish them off quickly.

It does not matter how many you kill, if you do not pick up a scroll, you will not be able to kill the mages.
