if you tanked toc 25 and stuff then yes you should do fine.
@tonkks...the heroic gear is only ilvl 232, if youve been doing toc 25 or better than there should be no UGs. also scryers blade wasnt BiS....and being able to get BiS from badges is gay. makes progression raids moot when you can farm badges from doing the dailies/weeklies and then get bis gear. not to mention the gear like scryers wasnt even released till near the end

Last night the instance servers kept crashing, so I never finished H HoR (I was going to start on regular.. then said screw it >.<). I'm going to get on and try to finish that one.
Just letting any tanks know, make sure you pick up the damn casters, or your healers and dps die, then you lose =[

well from what i can say, the heroics are the challenge.
yesterday i did the quest chain and unfortunately was forced to stop at the end of pit of saron due to server crashes.
from what i can tell since i was doing regulars to test out bosses first. is that it was mainly tank and spank by a bunch of 2k dps... me included, my spec was horrible. today i ended in FoS? (first wing) and it was heroic. what struck me is that unlike the other dungeons none of the mobs had a higher level, they all stayed the same. but their abilities were quite boosted though.
first boss actually healed thru non-stop until the gorup figured out how to kill the sphere while th etank was moving around for boss not to catch it up. that fight actually lasted 7.5 minutes and i actually was able to pull two army during the fight. so what i got from it is that heroics are like 5 to 10 times stronger then the regular who could by the way be tank and spanked all the way.
heres my advice, dont do the reg trying to know what the bosses are all about, when you'll end up in heroics, it'll screw you over !

Mostly agree with Arthurian.. I hopped straight into the heroic versions using the cross-realm pug tool .. rest of the group was wearing 200-226 epics with the odd decent blue slot. First 2 were pretty simple .. wipe due to healer dc, wipe on the dragon (some people didn't realise that if the dragon targets them and there's a massive emote they might have to move -.-) but generally no problems.
However halls Of Reflection didn't go quite as well.. having no idea of the event meant a quick wipe, then it wouldn't reset properly for us. I think this is the only one where having a little experience of it on normal might have helped. Although if it had reset properly I'm sure on second attempt it would have gone smoothly.

the 1st two instances are a joke on heroic, HoR is hard as shit.
i mean it all depends on gear, and these are certainly made for people with a higher gear level. i have a 4800 gs and was pulling 4k dps in PoS which made it easy....but for a lower geared grp i can see how it might be hard.

H HoR actually isn't too hard with good dps, and if you figure out the strategy (like I did 
) for the first part of the instance. The hardest part in the instance is having enough dps to take down all the adds on the last wave when the Lich King is chasing you. Before that its a walk in the park =]
My guild is #2 in progression in ICC 10 man, and we are starting 25 man tonight, but I won't be there because of game time issues (ie. I dont have any =[).
I also got my 251 weapon yesterday, its so good for someone who doesnt have 25 ToGC on farm xD.
