Possible New player question

hi guys
Im a returning original wow player who thought i would show some firends how old wow was and why im always complaining about the new one
Thsi server really looks to be a good choice especially considering it started up less than 30 days ago???
however im a bit concerned about the fact that multiple guilds are on/killed rag - my memory tells me you needed to farm dark iron items for your tanks etc
is it not as hard as back in the original? i know it was never hard to do MC however i assumed the resist gear was a standard which takes itme in itself.... + the reputation grind for quintesences
can someone clear me up?
