I just tanked the 3 new instances and it was nice. We had a little problem on some bosses but when we got the hang of the tactics it was pretty easy. Some bosses do alot of dmg though. I had 48k hp (feral bear) and sometimes I dipped loooow.. was down to 2 hp on last boss in second hc, pit of sauron and got saved by lay on hands (thank you pally healer! :D )
It was nice! :) To bad there aint alot of good tank gear for bears in there :S
As the post above said I also felt mobs dropped me for one of the casters or healer from time to time.

I went there as a paly healer. Well, cant say it was easy. The tank somehow failed at aggro, but that was not the worst. Tons of random shadow/frost damage, debuffs, curses... and no interupts from my fellows. Not that it was unhealable, but I just got no free GCD at all.
Also, one of the DPS was a pure huntard, kept staying in everything any boss tossed at him, and you know its pretty hard to contribute when dead.
On the other side, the part with falling ceiling was funny, gave us an achiev also.

I did HoR again today as bear tank and this time it went alot smoother. Yesterday we had a heroic ToC25 geared shammy healer and it was tnx to him we made it though then. The dps was very eager to top the list wich made it difficult to tank.
Today though we had a ~213 geared shammy healer and smart dps and it went a lot smoother. The dk deathgripped in the caster into me so I could take aggro, they waited for me to take aggro and we rushed through it with ease.
I havent found a good stategy for tanking this but the best I come up with is try get the party to stand as far back as possible to ranged mob _have_ to run close to have LOS. Then it was pretty easy to pick mobs up. Also try get some dps to range-cc a caster or rifleman, it helps alot.

yesterday i ran the three instances for the first time, as a geared (mostly 232-245 epix) holy priest, i expected it to be cake...
our tank was pretty decently geared warrior at around 40k hp, but our problem was dps, one ele shammy that did overall 3k dps but kept pulling mobs due to lava burst crits at start of fight.. and two lazy ass 2 k dpsers (hunter and dk) so while i hardly go oom during totc i went oom quite a lot here ...
it must be considered a miracle we made it through the first two heroics (i didnt know the fights and tank pulled like three times the boss without anyone explaining fight to me... while i was at half my mana), but at the third instance, i ran out of toterance for the weak dps and left the group, those waves make the fights realy chaotic unless u have good smart dps (hunter and dk were hardly aoeing, and if they were , they started too fast and they were pulling agro...) i found myself healing 4500 hps on some trash pulls...
and worst of all i hardly had any time to look at the scenery since i was watching those damn health bars all the time...
so a good advice, take decent dps with you that makes fight so much easier...
imma pass on all groups with freeloading dps from now on. come on, how hard is it to pull 3 k on group trash / bosses (we had a shammy for heroism even... )?
these are instances where all three jobs need to be done (no slacking tank, dps or healz)
ps i think im gonna asign a new key for binding heal, used it way to much ....
