With more practice I'm able to fly through this instance now. It's so weird, my dps hasn't gotten any upgrades, yet the instance is much easier now. I'm still 80 (trials do not let you hit 81).
Caster gear continues to drop in BRC and now my shaman is decked out, yet chain heal still sucks balls.

Looks like practice makes perfect. I've become so comfortable playing a melee group I honestly think a lot of these encounters would be harder with a ranged team.

What I liked about WOTLK is once I got to about 73, I was overleveled for at least two instances. This meant I could grind them very easily with no downtime. I always had a few instances to choose from at any given level that I could breeze through. Now I only have 1 option - BRC....over and over and over and over again.
