Most players don't listen or follow this, so it's hard to judge the true difficulty of the zones.

me and a friend finished all the 80-82 content and quests and have a few blues from the starting 5 mans ) and the mobs are HELLA hard in Uldum and twilight highlands. You cant get anymore gear before going there. For us boxers this will not be an issue, but it will for solo players, and more so for lesser skilled players ( and WoW is 80% unskilled face rollers ) So at the very least, if the 82-85 zones stay as is when Cata goes live, it will be a system shock to casual solo players for sure.
