seriously, i just tried it after beating it before 2.0 and i'd say its harder than any of the ninja exams i've done (i'm on 117 rn). I don't understand why they made it this difficulty. I'm not sure what power you need to be to fini* actually since i'm 35k power right now and it didn't look beatable to me as a water main. I really hope they give some feedback to the design team that the elite instance difficult was increased way too much.
