zf does require a bite of lvl and gear in addition to a bite of tactic

i tried zf when 3 of my shammys where 35 the other two where 55, i had a hard time with the trashmobs and failed in a epic way with the first boss
i did go back when my 3 slackers where 40 trash where easier, but i failed at first boss 2 times.
my 3 attempt where at 42, cleared zul farak easlely enough except the stair figth now my girls are 44 and i still feel the mana problem with this section of the figth

i usually does less instant cast myself and just do one round on ligthign bolts on each mobs let my new found friends from the cage deal with the injured mobs
and i found that this is the best way for me atleast.

else then that, kill melee first, if any nova totems drops out, just nuke them and confintue with melee and do casters when melee is dead.
when a mob is rude enough to frog your main, just step back with your slaves and continue the killorder as if your main where not frogged.

totems i usually use is totem of wrath and aoe totems, 1 mana and 4 heal totems and the grounding totem to reflect caster dps back at the casters.
"only when the trashmobs or bossfigths require it ofc. if you got trouble with trash try some stoneclaw totems now and then?

btw i been in zf for 2 lvls and then some bars. and only 2 of the cool masks have dropped, anyone else notices a low droprate on the masks?
