Personally, I don’t think the story mode dungeons I ran through were hard at all, sure we had one or two wipes but that was nothing. We did AC twice and CM once (after the patch).

Our set up:
AC run one: Warrior, Mesmer, Engineer, Elementalist, Necromancer.
AC run two: Warrior, Warrior, Engineer then a Ranger for the 4-man.
CM: Warrior, Warrior, Engineer, Ranger, Guardian.

No idea what people’s traits were apart from me being a support/damage Engineer.

The first AC run our Mesmer was only level 27, and in CM one Warrior was only 35. The second time in AC we had 2 dc’s after the first boss, yet we managed to 3-man the Ranger boss and 4-man the rest, (nearly 3-manning the lovers).

We cleared all runs without much trouble and had fun. We didn’t use vent or anything. However some of us had played together before with the rest being pugs. I suppose it might be different in a full pug group.

Again, I really don’t think story mode (from what I have done) are as hard as people are making out. And no, we aren’t elite players or anything like that, most of us just spend a few hours on the game a day/week. In my opinion, people just need to get used to the combat style of the game first, as it is very different from other mmo’s.
