Spindleclutch Too Difficult for level 12???

Is Spindleclutch beatable by a group of level 12 characters? I like to experience content at "appropriate" level but I have tried Spindleclutch with my friends as a group of level 12's, 13's and now 14's. We can handle most of the pulls up to the final boss even as all 12's but get killed by acid spit, stomps or red circle of death every time. Two of my friends keep wanting us to just level up two more levels and try again but I don't feel a sense of accomplishment by simply outleveling a dungeon and keep insisting we should be able to beat it at 12 if we all work together. Problem is, two of our group are new to MMO's and one in particular gets angry if we ask about his gear or skill assignments because he doesn't care enough about dungeons to want to get into that detail. SO, do I have to give up on my friends and find a group that actually WANTS to master their characters? Can Spindleclutch be beaten by a group of 12's? I have watched vidoes on the fight on youtube and it always seems to be groups of level 15's. Is the dungeon simply too hard for level 12?? Thoughts?

    My guild did it at lvl9 (with the tank being 11) - so it should be possible ;-) but it was pretty hard (which was expected) and took some organization on TS and ppl who know what they are doing

    Funny you mention that. I told my friend I bet the first response is, 'we did it at level 9 with no gear on so I don't know what your problem is." LOL That was close. :)

    I never ever said I can't see your problems ;-) we died A LOT doing it at that time. I just said it IS possible. We got a good setup with Templarhealing, dk tanking and two sorcs and we got TS, which counts for a lot

    Key phrase: "new to mmo's"...

    You can always finish it with that friend later. Find a group that knows how to tune stats/build; yes level 12's are fine.

    ok...thanks. We seem to do fine up to the whisperer but have no chance at her. Someone always dies to an acid spit, a stomp, or a the red circle of death. I figured it was just mechanics and learning how to get out of the red circle for the newbies but wanted to verify if it was just mechanics or if it was also requiring higher level toons to avoid the spits/stomps, etc. As mentioned, one person in our group is new to mmo's and the other doesn't want to spend time discussing what they can do better. Maybe it's just a bad mix. Thanks for your feedback!

    If people know what they are doing, it's actually quite easy - at level 12. Key phrase "know what they are doing."

    Very fun instance.
