LOL!
I see the healer issues, how about other classes? How's everyone (but healers) liking the 5-mans?

The 'healer issues' are going away with upgrades and people playing intelligently. There is a night and day difference from when I first started healing heroics to today.

I honestly kind of figured this was the case (though it was only a suspicion as I only just got back from vacation this afternoon), but as I read the complaints I was reminded of the early days of BC when healers would OOM and the party would wipe if there wasn't enough DPS to kill the mobs quickly enough ON TRASH PULLS IN HEROICS.
I was also reminded of the days where if you pulled aggro as the DPS in a BC heroic you got one-shotted and nobody blamed the healer because it was impossible to heal a 1-shot, but now, of course, people are blaming healers apparently according to the stories, for basically the same thing (healers can't afford to heal people who pull aggro and keep the tank up too).
Anyway, glad to hear that the WOTLK monkeys are starting to L2P again, maybe there's hope for this game if Blizzard doesn't dumb it dow...er... patch it too much.

Some of the boss mechanics in 5mans are a bit too complicated for some of the more....casual players.

Going well. I am focused on money making right now (made 100k so far), dailies and just doing a daily heroic once a day.
Gear is ok, nothing special.
My DK does about 9500 DPS in heroics, 10-11k if I really go nuts and push it. Â

Is that gear you're wearing drops from the regular dungeons or the heroics?
It looks like it visually matches, even the boots?
Now THAT would be a welcome change in the game

I heard the new bombing run has become equivalent to Occulus in LK though. Firing from a mount on rails doesn't seem like it would be that difficult.

great. i have put in nearly 20 hours and am still level 82. been doing lots of exploring and pvp and a few dungeons. dungeon finder is nice to have while leveling up this time around - but the queues are really bad as a dps still.

I've been doing 5-10 heroics a day and I've seen 1 caster mail piece drop :\ It's really frustrating to see a bunch of guildies get 1-4 peices of loot on nearly every instance we do. Super bad luck.

Some normal and heroic drops and some of it is Rep Gear (revered).
