Kicking Heroic @$$
We may have found the ideal group composition for Heroic Utgarde Pinnacle last night.
1) Warrior = tank
2) MM Hunter + BM Hunter + Unholy DeathKnight = DPS
3) Druid = Enthusiastic and mana-efficient healer
The short version is that with fast thinking and overwhelming DPS, that place was “easy” on Heroic with only 1 true wipe (you know, just to shake the cobwebs out). The advantages of our composition are many but I’ll highlight some key points… Hunter agg pong + druid battle rez = free mulligan on tank death. Seriously OP AoE = treat the “gauntlet” the same as you do in Normal Mode. Ranged physical DPS + melee AOE = RAWR.
If anyone has any doubt about running a Heroic dungeon, just try it anyway and be creative with using your strengths to your team’s advantage.

From what I heard, success all around, with groups 2 and 3 (and 4?) dispatching gundrak normal in short order.
Group 1 had a great time with the challenging heroic version, but after a few attempts and with some great tips from other guild members who had ran it before, we too were successful.
