<p>Use your EM raid gear, and replace it with 92 legendary group drops in skyshrine, and work through the quests line in skyshrine.</p><p>Do not use the wakening lands solo quest gear.</p><p>If you have trouble solo healing the new zones, and it's because of a lack of group cures, then do what you can.  If it's something else then yes, somebody sucks, sorry.  It might or might not be you, or the tank, or your gear.</p><p>I haven't bothered reforging yet, but I should.  Get rid of useless stats, and convert them into things you need.</p><p>I took the right side all the way down on prestige, but anything you pick will probably be okay.</p><p>Crit chance is the only gear check - and should be easy to meet with EM raid gear.  Any group content, you probably won't have to worry, but the way you check is look for a zonewide debuff on beneficial crit chance, and add 100.  That's your target.  In the instances, target a mob which is not fighting, and look at its buffs.  Look for critical avoidance and add 100.  You can see its buffs by going to options, user interface, targetting windows - show spell effects on target (by memory, so exact option could be wrong).  Oh yeah, you have to click the "advanced" button on the top right to see that option.</p>
