stop whatever you are doing and visit http://be.imba.hu/ now and type in your character details.
then accept the very well-founded solid criticism that it provides in the way of great recommendations.
if the blue line (no, not ‘pill’ from the Matrix) is far away from Kara – you are not ready from a gear perspective in their opinion. now, in my case (Ironhelm), i *do* meet the ‘accepted worldwide’ requirements for Kara (12K health, 12K armor, 490 defense, 25% avoidance) and exceed them; however, this tool still had recommendations and it feels that I should do them before it is comfortable saying I will do “well” in Kara (blue line is that you will do “well”).
so if you are close to the instance (with your blue line), then you will likely “hold your own” in there; but really, you should be trying to get that blue line over the instance name so that you can perform well in there and focus on performing the strategies well rather than trying to prevent yourself from dying.
go see where you stand and do the raid group a favor and move that blue bar a lot closer if not on top of the Kara instance!
