I ask because I'm not sure how you even had a stun rotation with only two schs. Speaking specifically about sch I know I had to make an additional macc set separate from my haste and fast cast set even WITH apamajas II due to how resistant some of them are (i.e mantis). And no stunning really wasn't a common occurrence on sch before Prov / Legion. I had a set beforehand, but it was not nearly as intricate as it is now. So it's not too difficult to imagine that some schs wouldn't have that sort of gear.

And hint: no the group I played were not idiots
Successful = Clearing Wave 3+ Consistently. I think in one instance i remember getting to wave 5, I think this was the one with the Harpy/4Swordguy? While I'm sure other groups have done better, for our group, it was more "We have good-to-great geared and skilled players, heres the plan, lets follow through".

Our first few runs were atrocious, but once we got into the swing of things, its when we began clearing more easily. the Second shell had most of the first shell, it was just under new leadership and had new faces.

Legion is really not that hard. It just takes open cooperation and everyone needs to know what they're doing. Mantis i admit was a bit difficult to stun, and at time even with the PAJAMAS II, can resist... Him, we didn't really try to rely heavily on Stun, and more tried to kill it before it killed us (Also utilizing available Weapon Bash to assist on he off chance...), Having our SCH have/build M.acc sets wasn't rough, and APAJAMAS would have been nice, but I don't think either had one. While i can't go into the intricacy of strategy, what you described is what all Legion groups have some trouble with, those particularly cheap mobs that are just plain annoying, and there is no skilling around cheap and bad design :|, which Legion does have a few of.

Now, if you have everything you listed, and still didn't quite clear 3+, I do have to apologize and say it was lack of cooperation or player understanding, not the event. However with a set up like you described, it would definitely make the event more easy-mode.

I think the second shell is still active, though i haven't been with them for a bit because of other matters :|
