VR is not the most difficult boss out there, sure. But in my experience one shouldn't underestimate him. We killed him after 4 attempts, yet had to wipe 3 times again due to individual mistakes. Furthermore you need tanks who are able to put out a respectable amount of trash and a DPS department that is not slacking. Killing him before the berserk requires almost every dpser alive (at least for us because the performance of our dps is very spread out unfortunately).

And regarding the question about melee dps. Melee is doing ok on VR since the ranged have to move quite a lot as well whereas the melee only has to do a few steps to get out of the pounding.

On the gear requirement: if your raid sports a lot of kara stuff or crafted items you are probably good to go. When I tanked VR I had no loot from 25 mans and the Kara stuff was more than sufficient.
