1. You need a defense rating of 490.
2. You need 12k un-buffed health.
3. 12k Armour is nice, but not necessarily an absolute must.
Thats it really! The following are nice to take into Kara as well -
Spicy Crawdad +30 Stamina Food Buff
Flask of Fortification (increases health n defense rating)
Super Healing Potion
Greater Rune of Warding
Greater Rune of Shielding
Ironskin Potion
If you bring those you'll do yourself and your raid group alot of good.
