It was my first attempt at tanking and it was a lot of fun! There were 3 wipes for reasons that I felt were my own. Two wipes on a pull between bosses 2 and 3, just before the hunter boss.

I had to respec to prot last night so that I could tank. I also had to get a 1H sword and a shield. The sword (Blade of Retribution) was a quest reward (from Terokkarantula – which I solo’d as ret) and the shield (Outland Shield of the Beast) was the best one on the AH that I could find. I got a nice set of shoulders out of the run, Truth Bearer Shoulderguards.

I have about 175k experience until I ding 68 and then leveling to 70 will get easier…30% easier! Patch 3.0.2 comes out this Tuesday (10/14/08) and the experience required to level from 60-70 will be decreased by 30%. I’d like to be 68 by then, so that I can advantage of the exp decrease at a fresh level.
