Flashpoint: The Mandalorian Raiders
Just attempted this Flashpoint, and was rolling along pretty well until we hit the group boss that comprised of 4 20k Stun/CC immune bosses that were a Jedi Consular, Sentinel, Gunslinger, and Trooper, and wow, they just lit us up.
The Jedi Sentinel is probably the biggest problem, he is next to impossible to not only tank, but keep off the healer. I had a sequence of where he literally Force Jumped me, Force Pushed me, and then Force Jumped me again before turning around and Force Jumping back to the healer. 3 Force Jumps in less than 5 seconds.
Between him and the gunslinger dishing around damage, the healer just could not keep up with group damage and as the tank I couldn't keep anything on me with being flung around the room by the Sentinel. Think he needs to be looked at at the very least in terms of abilities cooldowns. Without all that, it might be slightly more manageable at even level, though, probably still extremely tough.
Also, occasionally, when we killed one of the bosses, the one killed would not respawn with the rest of them.
The rest of the bosses were pretty straight forward up until that point. Nothing as hard as that encounter. Biggest issue was keeping stuff on me, though, as a Sith Warrior, AE threat really isn't hot at mid 20's.

Black Talon vs The Esseles
Well I rolled my first dark side sith last night and got up to lvl 11 where me and my friend decided we would run the Black Talon instance. We have both played republic so far so was excited to see how the flashpoints varied.
Well we got to the first boss and managed to wipe 3 times. Took a couple of tries to work out the tactics and then managed to get the boss down. Definatly much harder than the 1st boss in the esseles.
This trend seemed to carry on through the whole flashpoint. The esseles seems to be SOOOO much easier than the black talon. You don’t need any real tactics to complete the Esseles but in the Black Talon you need good tactics to get past every boss.
Is there any reason why the Esseles is so easy in comparison. I much preferred the difficulty of the Black Talon and wish they incorporated this into the Esseles. I’ve managed to run the Esseles with a friend and 2 companions with ease @ lvl 10. This is impossible in Black Talon.

Hammer Station
Just did this again with a group of 15 Sorceror, 16 Sorceror, 16 Marauder and 16 Powertech. I was healing as the 16 Sorceror.
Overall, the flashpoint is improved upon last build - it's quite nice to have a functional map and mostly functional loot table. The last boss doesn't seem to have a specific loot table - we got a drop off him that another group got off trash.
However, the trash still felt rather yawn. Doesn't really reflect the feeling that '10,000 Advoszec' will face us. Sure, I don't expect that much trash, but these guys are supposed to be elite, world-conquering warriors. Make it feel that way, please.
The first boss, if anything, felt even more undertuned than it did last build - turns out my shield is able to completely mitigate the Mining Beam, and the droids still don't do any damage worth mentioning when they blow up.
Second boss felt OK in terms of damage taken, but the healer NPC still didn't heal (or if he did, didn't heal often/much at all). Overall, fight's not that exciting.
Last boss felt much improved upon last build. No buggy mines, for once. Still easy to wipe if one of your group is.. less than adept at avoiding bombs.
If you lose someone, you eventually fall behind on adds and healing. This is good. Damage on the tank felt good (also good to see that no bombs are thrown at the tank (at least, we didn't notice any) - it'd probably be a bit much if they were still thrown at the tank).
Oh, apparently the DPS were having issues seeing the bombs. Maybe a graphical issue, maybe need to make them slightly more distinctive.
Overall, I wouldn't change anything about this boss at all besides perhaps the aforementioned possible change to make bombs slightly more visible.

Black Talon first boss WOW
Ok, just tried my first attempt here in this build. Never had problems before. We had a group, I was lowest at level 9, had an 11 Powertech, 11 Assasin and 10 Sith Warrior, and we could not beat the first boss. I never had this problem in previous builds.
Yes, we moved from the probe droids before they exploded. We tried having one, then two ranged on the adds, then switching around. No, the group was working well together, with no in-fighting or anything like that.
This is a flashpoint that people get sent to before we get to pick our AC, so dedicated heals and tank should not be required for this. It seems that this is way overtuned for new characters right now.
