This entire quest chain has gotten way, way easier, but this final fight really stands out. I tried as a level 30 Disc priest, and despite thinking I would lose given my experiences pre-Cata, had no problems whatsoever: shield, DOT, HF, Penance, Mind Blast, Smite, repeat. As long as you keep the shield up, you shouldn't even have to heal.
Kinda have mixed feelings about the nerfing of this chain. I was glad to see the quests given by the dwarf were eliminated, but I missed the challenge of the original fights.

well the original quest chain had you do the same thing only it had an extra part where you travel way the heck out of the way south to the badlands where this dwarf would give you a quest to kill rock elementals to get i think 15 pieces to create the scroll to summon myzrael and the scroll was a one use only type deal so if you died you had to fly south and it just took forever
What coedy said; the chain used to to be longer and more time consuming when you had to go to the B'lands, and in addition -- the giant you have to fight used to be an elite with 3 or 4 mobs in tow, making it difficult if not impossible to solo. He also used to roam around all of Arathi rather than just standing in one place. The Princess was also a much tougher fight overall; she used to be a level 44 elite back in the day. Check out the comments on her page and you can get an idea of how much she was nerfed: http://www.wowhead.com/npc=2755#comments

What to do
Description
Myzrael is a deceiver. She is an ancient force sealed long ago, and must be kept that way. You must confront her at the Shards of Myzrael where you first spoke with her. Summon her with this scroll, and when she has been fully brought to the surface, defeat her. Then take the Eldritch Shackles from her body and place them on the Shards to keep her fully bound once more. Good luck, {name}... may my past trouble you no more.

- Breaking the Keystone
Opening the Stones of Binding loosened much of my confinement, but a lock still holds me chained. It is the Keystone you see among this circle of stones. And the key is held by one of my captors, the stone watcher Fozruk.
