TheWoWDBThis quest is kind of soloable, just get to BRD, take the elevator to the Domicile, then run around and click the books to burn them - its instant click.
You will probably die 3-4 times, but it takes less than 20 secs to get back in as the spirit healer is just outside BRD.

Post-Cata class quest that rewards the T1 helm lookalike.
A list of all classes are as follows:
Deathknight : No T1, no dice.
Druid: Breath of Cenarius - Rewards with blue quality lookalike of Cenarion Helm. Both the alliance and the horde gets the quest from the same NPC.
Hunter: The Golem Lord's Creations(A)/The Golem Lord's Creations(H) - Rewards with blue quality lookalike of Giantstalker's Helmet.
Mage: The Pyromancer's Grimoire(A)/The Pyromancer's Grimoire(H) - Rewards with blue quality lookalike of Arcanist's Crown.

Warrior: A Dangerous Alliance(A)/A Dangerous Alliance(H) - Rewards with blue quality lookalike of Helm of Might.
These rewards are also quite good at their level if you don't have a heirloom helmet for your alt(s). I also have no idea why the horde priests get race specific quests.
Update as of Shadowlands: The quest is now given by Patrice Lancaster at 78.93, 69.78. Inside the house where you go after Exile's Reach. The priests in the Cathedral of Light no longer offer the quest or accept as turn in.

Description
The influence of Twilight's Hammer reaches far and wide. They search ceaselessly for allies in their battle against us and they are recruiting the Dark Iron dwarves of Blackrock Depths to their cause. Moira's grip on the Dark Irons is tenuous at best and more of her people fall away from her rule with each day. We must sabotage their recruitment efforts. I want you to go into Domicile portion of Blackrock Depths and use this torch to burn the books that the Twilight's Hammer is distributing there.
Getting there
Inside the dungeon: Blackrock Depths
The smoldering Blackrock Depths are home to the Dark Iron dwarves and their emperor, Dagran Thaurissan. Like his predecessors, he serves under the iron rule of Ragnaros the Firelord, a merciless being summoned into the world centuries ago.
