And how do you handle Moroes? Doesn't he Gouge/Blind you and then kill the healers?
Or are those of you advocating one tank taking a DPS warrior for those fights, or a feral druid who DPSes most of the time?
What I've found is have someone who can survive a few hits (Fury Warrior / Random druid in bear) make the pull and let them get abit of aggro and then just throw sheild, exorsim, JoR and he is straight on me, beat me for a bit and normally quickly spins, ice blocks the guy who pulled him and leaves me on him

I'm not completly sure about how the Icy Tomb works, but afiak it's an aggro reduction, not a complete wipe like some people said. I go crazy on my aggro generation, and often manage to make em stick on me even when I'm cubed.
For Moroes you can use Blessing of Sacrifice on an "OT", can be a rogue or whatever. SoB also works with a tad of luck (though you're no BE). I'm pretty sure there's a thread just about solo-tanking Moroes somewhere on these boards.

uhm..
1h35min is the record for me atm.
party was:
Tankadin
Holydin
Spriest
Spriest
Ele sham
Ele Sham
Spriest
Spriest
Mage
Warlock
Spriest overload. that's it.
the diamond point is to have ppl that need NOTHING, neither sidegrade or offspec. so when you kill a boss enchanter take all and i start to go at next group.
trash near curator was pretty much a problem.. with earth/fire totems and shams swanging on melee gear was doable tho.
holydin was nearly afk, even during NB/Prince
was 7ppl for another guild (mostly full t6) and 3 off mine (t5/t6)
this time we're gonna try:
Tankadin
Elesham
Moonkin
Holydin
Spriest
Ench sham
BM hunt
Fury warr
Rogue (hemo)
Rogue.
will keep you informed

I has trick
On the guardians before the opera (ice tomb ftw), you can solo tank them without anyone else taking a hit.
What you do is have a hunter (and possibly a rogue, not tried it yet) be 2nd on aggro list, and fd (cloak of shadows) when the ice tomb hits, the guy will immediately go back to the person with highest threat (you in the tomb) and break it. Was discovered accidentally but it means that you can actually solo tank 1-2 of them easily.

We just did a run in slightly under three hours that included a wipe/reset on Netherspite due to me somehow getting tapped by the red beam when I shouldn't have yet as well as a couple player swaps for loot drops.
It was interesting at the end of the run to realize how fast we ran it when we weren't even trying to run it fast.
I'd think we could possibly shave as much as 30 minutes off were we to not wipe and actually speed pull. Maybe someday we'll try.

2 hours and 2 minutes, and that was without really hurrying. Illhoof got one sacrifice (me, I bubbled), Curator didn't evocate and Spite had one portal session. What was really awesome though was the warlock in the blue beam: 3,859 DPS.
