Great comments! However, if you don't mind, I would add a little to that wonderful Lore Master strategy:

Blinding Flash against one target: Even when fighting just one target it can be useful to use Blinding Flash. In the 30 seconds that pass you can use Inner Flame to heal, or wait until your Light of the Rising Dawn cooldown is up. Worse comes to worst: Run. Be careful not to leave Burning Embers or any DOTs (Damage over time) on the target, as that will break the mezz. Thus, after you mezz (Blinding flash is also called a Mezz (for "Mesmerize")) the target, and while his adds reset, you can heal yourself for any damage while waiting for him to come out of mezz.

Remember: Your mezz is one of your best attacks. You can keep a mob mezzed all day long while you and your group heal, buff or debuff. Don't rush a fight: Crowd control (CC) as much as possible; this way, you, not the mobs, dictate the speed of the encounter.
