Level 83 and all cata instances are still locked. Do we really need to be 85 to run an instance?

You have to do two things to be able to queue for an instance. First you have to meet the ilevel requirment. Second you have to have physically discovered the dungeon.
If you hover over the locked dungeon it will explain to you what you have to do to unlock it.

Yeah Trig, didn't you know? All cool people come out of the womb knowing how to do everything in video games without having to ask questions about anything ever.

I have to be honest, after doing the 85 dungeons on normal a couple of times, I'm not sure I really *like* healing like this. And that's just normal! I'll have to gear up much more, do some heroics with non-mouthbreathers before I can commit to a judgment, but I'm wary.

I will admit, the healing so far for me has not been easy. I would get bored healing in Northrend, in fact I spent more time dpsing then I did healing. Although I will admit that isn't how it should be. A healer should have to concentrate on keeping his party up.
But man, some of the damage they throw at the tank, I get tanks hit for 70% of their health in one hit. That doesn't do good things in my brain.

I think I agree that it is a little too linear. Some branching and exploration freedom would be nice.

I may be wrong on this, since I have only done a little leveling so far, and all that with my alliance toons (PVE server, thankfully). But, it seems that, very early, both horde and alliance seem to be doing nearly the same thing.
I mean, in WoTLK, the horde and alliance first areas that you came to, and many of the following areas, the two faction's quest mobs weren't usually right on top of each other.
But in this one, in both starter areas, I seem to be seeing a lot of horde and alliance killing the same stuff, which just makes for that much more competition for limited resources.
At least, that is the way it seems to me.

I agree. I was under the impression that instances in Cata would be less "burst damage," but I have NOT seen this to be the case whatsoever. Tank falls 70%, and I do NOT have a heal in my arsenal that can make up for that. Throw down some flash heals, and in the mean time, the DPS took a few volleys of damage. Talk about learning to triage! But in the end, voila, OOM.
I'm exaggerating a bit of course, but it seems almost every boss I go OOM by the end. The exception is when the tank is overgeared for the run, then I do just fine.
I'm not complaining, as I'm actually enjoying the challenge. Thankfully, every single person I've ran with has been patient, and understood when I needed to take a mana break after every boss.
