Hit Outland last night and started questing...already 59, yay! I've been running into a problem, though--my low damage output (I'm Resto) was just enough to slide by with in Azeroth, but right now it feels as if I wouldn't even be able to take down a single same-level mob without having to use potions. Which sucks. I just don't do enough damage, the fight drags on, and eventually someone shows up, takes pity on me, and one-shots it. <.<
Now, don't get me wrong, I still love Resto--and I do level quickly when I'm with my group (2 MM hunters and a Prot Pally)--and I did after all manage to keep one of the hunters alive when he pulled a level 61 elite mob and a couple extras, which feels great--but I'm starting to think that if I want to get any solo questing done I should switch to a DPS spec. And with my current gear, Elemental looks like the way to go.
So... what's playing Ele like? How's the survivability? I'm guessing it's much easier to take down mobs...
I may not make the switch, since I really love Resto, but if I have much more trouble I'd like to know if it's a viable option for solo questing in OL.
Gear's here, if you want to take a look--maybe it's part of the problem? My shield's different now, but everything else should be up to date.

I'm sure I'll be picking up better stuff from quests and drops, but for now, that's what I have.
/sigh
