In theory the game should adjust difficulty to your levels. It doesn't do that quite effectively. Most people do the Shadow Temple quest in Chapter 2 with a lvl8/lvl9 party and even then it's not that hard. If you come back with a high level party you can inst-kill almost 90% of the enemies with your cleric (turn-undead) and the rest (bone Golems, Skeleton Warriors) is only a short fight. Dragons can be slain easily with the right tactics. If you have bad equipment, a low-level party and have never encountered a dragon before it WILL be hard. If you've already visited Firkraag you know the deal and therefore laugh at the shadow dragon.
.
So, YES it is THAT simple.
and
NO it is not if you do it earlier in the game.
.
However I must admit that this was one of the rare dungeons that never gave me particular trouble (Dragon aside) even when I was a complete n00b.
