I think I'm going to go with my initial thoughts which is to get geared "enough" to be able to get the easier of heroics on farm. (Again, I have to work up my playskill so figured out how much my inevitable "failing" is due to gear vs bad play will be a challenge for me. ) I'll then stockpile 5k to get my main who's a herbalist/miner his epic flyer first and then work from there. I just don't have the playtime to be a do-daily's-daily guy.
