I've been leveling my GLA and haven't gotten to Brayflox yet. It's the one dungeon I'm dreading. I've been doing good so far, and have had no complaint, but I'm just worried that I'll screw up or something. I guess I'll just have to wait and see.

Honestly it's not that bad. Just do all that you can. The dps need to not top out dps off the get go and healers need to be careful to not overheal if there is a paladin tank in this dungeon. It's not just an exercise in learning to tank, but also an exercise in how the party needs to act as a TEAM.
Do all that you can to hold hate, i.e. flash 2x then lead into combos, and you've done your part. The rest is up to the rest of your team.
Brayflox (NM) earned its "hard" reputation because of how things were during the first few months during release.
Almost everyone was in NQ ~i30 gear when first attempting the dungeon. (Now a group is likely to be mostly level synced or wearing HQ or the dungeon's Greens)
Aiatar is the first boss with a fast "must dodge" AoE. (If you are practiced in dodging HM and EX Landslides you are practiced in dodging his breath.)

I wouldn't worry much about Brayflox, this is far from the hardest dungeon in the level range. I've run it as a first time War and first time Pld in the last month and neither run saw any deaths or overly-complicated mechanics/sections.
On occasion your health may dip low and test your healer and your defensive cd management, but the mechanics aren't tough and the pulls aren't overly scary. Learn what mobs do what and prioritize those with abilities.
I suppose that Flash x2 > Halone x1 to all > Riot once > Flash again, will keep the aggro your way regardless of tanking stance...
I once forgot to put the Tanking stance on my WAR in the 1st room and was tanking just fine :/
But do gear yourself up to ease up the ride :v
