It may be advisable to remove all of Ragzlin's allies first as they all have low hit points and are buffed by his skills if allowed to live. Afterwards, the party can face the hobgoblin himself.
Ragzlin's throne room provides ample opportunities for the party to gain an advantage. One section of the room contains a wooden walkway with a "wooden support" that only has 1 hit point. Luring enemies onto the walkway and then destroying the support can be an easy way to trivialize the fight.
