So I solo cleared Hellfire/Zangar stuff along with Terrokar (except Slabs). I was thinking of pointing my attention to Netherstorm and get mechanar/botanica/arcatraz.
I never did any Outlands dungeons before (except SLabs) and I figured I would check here first to see if these higher-level dungeons are even doable. Would there be any content I wouldn't be able to clear in these dungeons? I'm looking for bosses I can skip over that just aren't doable...either have enrage timers or heal too fast etc. If it's mostly tank-n-spank I'm fine, I don't think mana will be a problem.
For example I was reading up on Botanist Freywinn and apparently it summons flowers and heals herself until they're dead. Would I be able to take down the adds and continue damaging her enough for it to be productive or will she heal full by the time I lure them away and get them down?
Stuff like that. Let me know what you think!
Update: I cleared out Mechanar and up to last boss in Botanica. I don't think I can beat Warp Splinter because his healing adds. I tried taking them out but started going OOM to be useful. I tried to plow through, but I couldn't keep DPS enough for it to be effective. After I get the key I can try Arcatraz.

Grats on your solo clears! I have fun doing this also, even though I know I'd spend my time better advancing Wrath faction or running Wrath Heroics/Raids. I cleared all of Hellfire a couple weeks ago, and was fairly shocked at how easy Shattered Halls was. I always cringed at that place pre-Wrath, even though I had to run it a dozen times to get to exalted with Thrallmar (on my retired Hunter). But the first boss was by far the hardest, and the rest just kind of fell over.
I'm curious about your Bot clear. Did you even bother with Botanist Freywinn? It's a skippable boss. But I'd wager that between Cos and your other AOE that the flowers would just die fast and be a non-issue.

As Holy some bosses might be harder and some might be easier. I personally just did all of the TK instances on Heroic last Friday, but that was as a feral druid. Warp Splinter in Botanica might be tough because you need to outdamage how much he gets healed by his adds. For the record, I believe his adds have about 3k each on normal, and they heal him for their remaining health when he consumes them (so 18k). So every 45 seconds or so he'll get back 18k health. He was annoying on my druid, so I imagine it'll be VERY annoying as Holy. Whereas a Ret pally should be able to smack them down quickly and yet keep up the healing on themselves.
If you want to do it, you might need to change your spec a bit, is what I'm saying :-P

Yeah Warp is a pain like that. I could kill the individual trees easily, but it ate up too much mana to be HS them. I thought maybe they only healed them if they were near him, but no, any left will heal for the remaining so I just tried to keep him in the middle and consecrate, but they walk so slow it didn't give them enough ticks to be effective.
I tried heroic ramparts but quickly found it wouldn't work. I was getting dinged up pretty good by the first 2 guards. I probably could have done it, but it would have taken an extreme amount of time to clear.
