I don't see a 5x Shammy group, running the complete chain for the Battered Hilts, if those are upgrades.
No one outgears the newer heroics, to that level yet.

But the older stuff, was balanced against being a fresh 80th, in mixed quest green/blues.
And you can far outgear that level content, fairly easily, given a bit of pvp gear or some raids for your toons.
