New instances

[Merrieman]

Soooo, my daughter and her significant other and myself tried the new 3 man instance down in the Waterworks last evening.   Yikes!  It kicked our tookis.  All lvl 60 a Capt., LM and Mini.  Don't get me wrong it has some great puzzles and action.  Anyone else done this and able to offer some tips?

How far did you get? What were you stuck on?

I ran it for the first time last night (LM, capt, Sith Lord RK).
Generally pull any levers / turn any wheels you come across.
A couple of the bridges only open for a few seconds so one person has to be ready to run across them while another operates the lever (seemed to be the same lever for both the essential bridge, and the one to the 12-mob HM room).
End boss is tricky, we didn't get him but were getting the hang of it - we ended up with us squishies standing with our backs to the column with the chests and the capt tanking him in the middle - I think it would have worked sooner or later but I was falling asleep :p. Have you worked out the levers in there?

I loved the instance - was in severe danger of jumping down just to see what was down there

I've heard you need a Captain for that instance, do you think that a Guardian would work instead?  Or is it the Last Stand ability of the Captain that lets him tank better in that instance?

Captain? No.

We ran it again yesterday with LM, Burg, Mini - first 2 bosses were easy, didn't do a HM room (why bother? I know you get extra IXP but they're tedious & you still get the elf-stone without). I ended up switching after a couple of fails on the last boss & we pulled it off comfortably with Burg, Champ, Mini (and my champ is woefully under-geared). Main prob with first setup was the burg wasn't able to grab aggro back each time after the knockback.
