The end game raises the difficulty bar. When leveling you only need to press some buttons that light up when you fight mobs and they go down like sacks of potatoes. In the end game you need to worry about hit caps, what stats that are optimal for your spec and optimizing your rotation to deal the maximal possible dps. It might be frustrating in the beginning but pretty fun when you start to get the hang of it and see results.

If you have some good epics you should be able to deal acceptable damage. Read the class forums on elitistjerks.com to find advices on spec, gear and rotation. You can also download Rawr to get help choosing gear, enchants and gems. One of the joys of this game is to optimize the dps and see how it increases when you get new gear. (Everytime I get a new piece of gear on any of my chars I go to a training dummy to check the dps difference.)
