Group was:
Me tanking - mostly T5 badge gear (Shelly on Antonidas if you want check armory).
TG Fury warrior - fairly sub-par gear, SSO rep axe & Khorium Champion (Kafir)
Ret paladin - pretty well geared, mix of PvP & PvE, picked up the shoulders from 1st boss (Angyl)
Mage - mostly T5 badge gear (Kukla)
Shammy-healer - In a lot of T4 with some BoE purples mixed in, 1600 HB (Shamdaddy)
It went fairly well, we wiped once on trash - due to a prior mage deciding he needed to attack before I could get aggro - wiped several times on Vex before just slowing it way down and taking out the pure energy and letting the debuff drop (Finally killed him with only me left alive at 700hp ....). Also died several times on the priestess - mostly wasn't doing things right, having the warlord show up in her group always wrecks my day.
Now normally it goes faster, but normally I don't bring along a DPS warrior. I was always willing to bring a ret-paladin with me for salvation at least. Now that I can bring a warrior too it's great because well .... the warrior is my friend but I haven't been able to bring them into dungeons because I would always want at least 2 CC.
I swear it felt like they had buffed the place - or at least the DPS of some of the bosses, then again there was a rather distinct lack of HoTs which can really hurt you in MgT. Kael fight was kind of intense. That and my healer hadn't played in about 2 months ....
So the fun parts: I only used limited CC. Essentially sheeping one of the problem mobs - normally the etherial and his 'splody ways. On the priestess I did have the paladin bust out repentence, which when we finally got the kill order right made things much easier.
My mage also didn't die in the large amount of trash before the first boss and my mage didn't die on the wyrms before Vex despite doing the wyrms in 2 pulls.
This sharing, caring and rambling monstrosity of run on sentences brought to you by lack of sleep from tanking heroic MgT at 2am.
Great job on making the life of Prot warriors easier Blizz and for finally making it worthwhile for me to bring my friend's dps warrior along.
