Attumen, Moroes and Maiden were all 1 shot without having to use bubble or LoH. I just kept sacred shield up, Seal of Light and judged light. Instant FoL whenever I got below 75% or so. Opera event is where I ran into trouble. I got the Wizard of Oz one, and the mobs in it hit really hard. I tried it about 5 times and in my last attempt I got Roar, and Tito down, and Dorothy died just as I did. Roar seems to do the most damage in this fight so I decided to switch to him as soon as he comes out. I'm going to go back today with some pots and maybe a flask and see how things go. If I can get past this I believe Curator and Shade of Aran would be fairly easy.
I'm doing this in PvP gear with a PvP spec. I believe it helps a lot having enough resil to be uncrittable, other than that PvE gear might work better. Spec is 3/17/51 with Imp HoJ, I could respec to a different ret spec an make it easier, but if I was going to do that I could just go prot. I'm not sure what gear level is required to do this, but I really doubt you could do it in all lvl 200 gear. I'll try to log out in my ret gear so I can post an armory link if anyone is interested.
