All i can say you had badly geared tank, sure even with good geared tank ( [proper stats that is ) you take quite a beating but it`s not that hard, 1st time i did it i was 35 and our tank was 36, we didn`t use any cc`s but just good old fashion tank n spank, you gotta remember to use your cds, when i tanked it myself at 36 i died just one on the last pull before the boss due to the fact that my cds were a bit off and we just went for it, and that was the only death in the grp, it`s all about how you approach it and with what people, use your 2 second stuns or w/e, it helps. Medpacks are there for you.
