Being bad is like being an alcoholic, you can't start the recovery until you admit there's a problem.
Mmm, The Aurum Vale. One of my favorite dungeons because it is severely punishing to those who underestimate it. Even the music sounds like a theme you'd hear in hell.

It doesn't matter if players are in shire gear. You'll have the maximum allowed stats, but this won't save anyone who ignored the mechanics here. It also conveniently syncs players to one level before obtaining the lv50 skills that would make bigger pulls Herr possible. Those who pull more than two packs get an extremely rude awakening.

The devs knew what they were doing with this instance. It's there to separate the men from the boys. Don't get discouraged though. That dungeon is a doozy for healers.
