Have you gone back and done it at i180+? The place is faceroll once you have actual gear on. The only reason it took so long the first time through is all of us were just barely scraping by on item level. I know more than one person that had to hit up the vendor in Azys Lla for some knockoff soldiery gear just to be able to enter the instance.
I'd love to see this dungeon in the EX roulette, it's fantastically designed and has fun bosses.
