    I don't really think rating it against other kinds of content is really fair. This is a Normal MSQ Dungeon, and when rated against other Normal MSQ Dungeons, it's very high up on the list, if not #1 in terms of raw difficulty, amongst all MSQ 4-Man Dungeon bosses. I can't think of any MSQ dungeon that is anywhere near as difficult, and it is certainly harder than Swallow's Compass (which is an optional dungeon) and easily harder than anything Castrum Abania or Drowned City has.

    Heck, I would say it's even harder than Baelsar's Wall, or even Keeper of the Lake.

    Both of those had instant-death mechanics, sure, and Mist Dragon does not have anything instant-death, however, it's AoEs with the Stun+DoT+Big Damage might as well be as the damage is usually catastrophic enough to cause a wipe unless you got either a RDM or SMN in the group to help with raises and that's to say nothing about if someone happens to accidentally nail the rest of the group with the targeted AoE right before the unavoidable AoE hits.
