Well... as a healer I *like* lesser-geared tanks and dps, as they tend
to be less likely to try and drag us through at top speed using every
possible skip and exploit to shave off a few more seconds. I find
speedruns very stressful, so better geared people isn't necessarily a
good thing for me ;-) Attitude is very hit or miss though, I know you
can and do find the same in normals, I've just not hit any so far,
probably through luck.

Doubt we'd try duoing heroic yet, normals are fine, heroic I'd
probably aim to gear up a bit first. We had a shot at Mythic to look
at Court of stars and Arcway; that was definitely too much, got a few
trash mobs down with great difficulty but accepted we needed way more
gear to get further (we were lower geared at that point though, about
845)
