Hi guys. My guild is deciding to start really focusing on Hard mode flashpoints. i was hoping you guys could answer a few questions and possibly give some pointers.

1. What gear should everyone have to be successful
2. What class makeup do u need?
3. Should HM be done in a certain order?
4. is there an order of difficulty?

Anything else you can think to help us out would be most appreciated.

Thank in Advance.
