In the rest it is quite easy to wipe if you don't know what you are doing. (Assuming you don't grossly outgear or outlevel the dungeon of course - but in that case it is not the dungeon which is easy, but the character who is too powerful for the dungeon.)
Agreed. I really wish people would understand the "to YOU" part of this argument. I feel like a lot of folks who keep saying "too easy" or that content is "braindead" have not partied with legit sprouts/new players in a long time. Sunken Temple of Qarn and the Stone Vigil (normal mode mind you) both come to mind. Both are ARR dungeons and the mechanics really aren't difficult to navigate around if you know them and know how.

In Qarn just a few days ago I was in a party with someone who had never done the dungeon before and another who had never tanked it before. Guess what? We wiped twice, once on each of the first two bosses. When it finally clicked what was going on I asked if anyone knew how to fight the final boss, and the sprout spoke up that they didn't. Spent a few minutes typing out what to look out for and how to handle it. We had a close call after the fight was explained, but we managed to squeak out the clear. There was no way I could have "face-rolled" that run because I had to pay attention to what my team was doing and pick up where they couldn't.

Stone Vigil was a similar story. The first boss there is one of the first few in the game that doesn't telegraph its room-wide AoE. So if you don't watch a guide and know to get behind him, you don't think you're going to eat damage. I know because we wiped to that guy because the tank and the other dps didn't know this.

Hell, level 70 fully geared players still eat Titan normal's landslides. I know because I watched two of them when I did it for my MSQ clear on my current character.

So no...content isn't braindead, you've just graduated beyond it and need a new challenge. That's a different fight altogether.
