I started my free 7 day thing on my wow account thinking it would be fun to play a character up through the battle grounds, especially now that they are split into 5 level increments (10-14m 15-19....). I have to admit the profusion of boa heirlooms quickly ruined it for me and I stopped at 23. I played the character switching between dungeons for gear and buying some gear on the ah (not blues and purples, just current level gear). It was pretty unusual to find someone with less than 200% my hp on every bg.
It just made it feel that non85 BGs can only be fun if they have significant support from a 85.
Anyone else have this experience?

Well, it could be worse. Real twinks that have their xp turned off are in their own bracket so you'll never run BGs with them.

What you experienced is true for BGs as well as normal instances. Most everyone has full heirloom gear these days. In PvE it means you get carried along, and all of the instances are trivial. In BGs it means you get wtfpwned.

Instances sub 85 are all faceroll anyway. Even normal 85 heroics are faceroll. The only instances you can't faceroll are the Zandalari heroics.

Location: The battlefield. As always.
You can't faceroll (assuming you mean no CC) regular heroics without being around Ilv 346, groupwide, and even then, the bosses' **** you mechanics will still kill you if ignored.

I disagree with the first part, but agree with the second.
