It's awful. I'd be chugging along doing 30-33k an hour in ZF on GY pulls, and watch as mages advertised 70-80k/h groups

BRD has been a slight speed improvement, but not much.
I'd like to update this, with clearer info, and not recommend BRD for melee groups until 55. When I went into BRD the demoshout nerf wasn't yet live, so aoeing was a little more viable. Instead I recommend sunken temple, the upper ring with the 6 mini bosses. I was able to push over 40k an hour from 52 to 55 there, which was considerably better than ZF and then BRD at 50-52. I did not do the mini bosses beyond a couple of times when I killed some bosses in the dragonkin area.

I went between ZF and BRD at 50-52, testing the waters and it was rough in BRD for a melee team. I also tested BRD at 53 and 54, and Sunken Temple was still superior.
