Heh, it turned out not to be necessary. Our two warriors tanked the panthers just fine without this and even without stoneskin totems. They needed a little more healing without the bugged Shield Block, but otherwise, it was quite easy.
I should mention the other changes to the zone. Some mobs were removed but not too many. Just a few groups here and there. Meanwhile, the reputation gain has nearly doubled. Trash mobs are 3-4 rep each, bosses are 50-100 rep each, and Hakkar himself is worth 400 rep. We ended up doing the Maw of Madness and killing a few extra groups of trash mobs for reputation gain and got about 2700 rep for the whole trip. The other guild group was more direct with their trip and got 2300 rep. So, most groups should expect somewhere around 2500 rep for each trip through the zone.
Oh! And that doesn't count the bijous, which were raining down like mana from heaven. I'd suggest selling bijous on the AH quickly before people realize just how often they drop now. Seriously, there was at least a four-fold increase in the bijou drop rate.
