That really is the issue. Training groups of strangers while trying to get your grubby paws on some free loot would be a real bummer all the way around. I think if it were me with a brand new shaman wanting to take a crack at this, I'd give it a bit of effort and treat it like a class armor quest of sorts that requires some prep.

If I wasn't familiar with Karnor's, I'd take a gnome, dwarf, or wood elf rogue of low level to Firiona Vie from the Butcherblock boat and run it to the dungeon and sneak / hide around to get a feel for the layout. It's one thing to see the rooms on a map - it's quite another to actually poke around inside of a place with it on your screen. This is the sort of thing that could be done at any hour.

Then I'd level my shaman up to 14 I think, nabbing SoW and Bind affinity. I'd save plat on the way up and purchase 2-3 Invis potions and purchase the ingredients for the Invis to Undead potions, and seek out a different shaman to combine them for me after telling them what I'm using them for. The odds are really good they'd charge me nothing just to help out with the adventure.

At that point I'd head in during prime time on the weekend and get free loot, doing my best not to screw up my hopping from spawn to spawn for rots. Perhaps someone who's done it could chime in with what the OP could expect, or just tell me that I'm a bit paranoid about the affair.
