In answer to my own question the team stepped into ToC last night pretty much fresh 80's with a mix of quest blues and a couple of AV purples.

The mounted combat is not gear dependent …went smooth as could be expected for someone who has never attempted to box jousting before. Took down the 3-champions and promptly got wiped. The first try I got the Warrior, Hunter, and Rogue….I gave up after 4-attempts; the Hunter kept using disengage allowing the rogue to drop poison everywhere around my girls killing them while I ran around chasing after the Hunter.

Reset yielded Warrior, Hunter and Mage. We focused the hunter…then mage…and warrior; my shaman went down from that stinking hunter early on. Macro’d battle rez followed by an innervate allowed for an ugly win…a win never the less. Box reward gave my Pally some love with the defense leg drop.

The doors opened and in walked that bitch Paletress; after clearing up the trash she painted the walls of the coliseum with our blood. 80 gold repair bill (X) 5 later I called it a night.

Opinion…Depending on the champions a fresh team coming out of AV can get geared up in ToC even though the tank is not Crit Immune. My plan will be to simply farm the Champions until the team is better geared; I believe I can take down Eadric as his only trick is the hammer, and my priest can dispel it while he is casting…we will see, however, I think this is the faster route to get better geared rather then farming normal 80 instances.

Hope to soon start heroic’s
