>Major congrats - I still haven't completed it, but haven't been trying too hard. One thing that bugs me is the amount of work needed to just get to final phase; the site is in the back of beyond, and you have to deal with some pretty nasty trash to get in, and then complete the first phase in the room. The only saving grace is the doorstep, where you can repair and recuperate between tries. 

Wow, I'm surprised tbh, you got there so long before me! I reckon you
should manage ok tbh, your gear's ahead of mine, just go flat out on
big heals. Don't think there's much a priest has that healps in that
fight which a pally doesn't, except maybe some more instant cast
heals, which I admit are handy when you're running from meteors
(although one of mine doesn't work on npcs, and your word of glory
probably compares well enough with my holy word serenity)

If you're reaching the site through the caves (which I agree is a
pain), try going the other way - head towards Nalak, turn left at the
crossroads right before him, then right at Lu-Ban's room, and the next
left is where I found Wrathion. It's a bitch if somebody's fighting
one of the named mobs at the time, but clear otherwise :-)

>My main is now in the BiS he can have without doing real (ie, not LFR) raids, and in 3 weeks every item will have been upgraded 2/2. 

Nice one! I'm at 502+ in all but 3 slots, 522 in most which have
possible drops or purchases, excepting head/chest/shoulder while I
figure out tier setbonuses (see below). Only got 3 pieces upgraded
though, that's next up, but tbh it doesn't seem so worthwhile now the
next patch is ever advancing in development, may just save my valor.
Not too happy with the ilvl of LFR gear next patch, 528 seems
pointless for slots you're wearing 530 (upgraded).... like, oh, yeah,
here's a new item, now spend 500 valor to make it any kind of upgrade
at all. So that's kinda putting me off buying too!

>One thing I'm curious about; anyone have an opinion on the LFR token gear for a Holy Pally vs the 522 vendor gear? It's not clear to me which is superior.

Can't comment on pally but if anyone has an opinion on priest gear,
same question. However, I think I'm the only priest here these days...
;-) I've got 522 tier for gloves and legs, but wondering whether to go
for 4-piece setbonues or buy 522s for 2 more slots. Currently I have
chest token but am wearing non-set because a healy spec chest has no
spirit on (*sigh*), am hoping for luck on shoulder/head drops, but
equally I'm sick of wearing a 496 head. But I'll be unhappy to spend
that valor only to ditch it in favour of a 502 tier piece so, hmm.
