Thanks for all of the tips and advice!

I have 4 piece honor set on each toon which was from carried over honor and wintersgrasp tokens, but level 81ish blue daggers/axes that I picked up while running instances.

I seem to have just about everything fixed and working properly. After last night I was thinking maybe I made a mistake going enhance and spending all of my saved honor on that gear because 1 horde can kill me and I have a hard time killing even just 1 horde but I thought back to 3 years ago when I first hit 80 on my Ele team and it was the same thing. I died quickly and did very little damage until I started getting some decent gear upgrades.

I'm having a hard time playing the paladin and the shamans, probably because I'm not used to it. I had a little bit better success going with just the 4 shamans. I'll stick with it and see how it develops.

Since they took out the abilty to put delay in macros via /castsequence reset=5 ,,tremor totem -- is there a way to do this through IS Boxer?

A couple of years ago when I dropped my tremor totem for example, I spaced them out so they pulsed at different times. The end result was a max fear of 1-2 seconds. Now I seem to be getting hit with nearly the full duration even with tremor down.
