The first layer being a normal difficulty as an introduction to the new content, with the second being somewhere between normal and extreme, the third being between extreme and savage, and the last layer being a savage difficulty dungeon.
I think that might satisfy players who like running content with fewer people and would prefer killing mobs and a bit of exploration around rather than fighting a boss in an arena.
They never said it would have four layers of difficulty. The only thing we know about it is that difficulty will scale based on number of players. This could be as simple a change as HP of mobs, damage they do, or number of mobs.
