This may be easier said than done, but the entry level of raids (operations) is actually easier than most of the hard modes, and it gears you far faster.
I just got into a guild that seems to be starting on Hardmodes, did BT and we hit the enrage once or twice on a few bosses, but we managed to complete the whole thing. Plus we all do dailies together as a group so it's much faster. Also I am slowly getting my mods and what not put in aswell. Thanks guys.

From what I've seen so far in BT, you need to have the DPS, as the enrage hurts, but I do see what Lugor means. Finally having the right amount of DPS will make these Hardmodes much easier, and that was the only problem we had, the enrages were our wipes, I had a good interrupt rotation with the tank so there was never any painful abilities being thrown out which made the run that much more easy, with enrages being the exception to that.
All in all, I do see Columi and Tionese gear coming my way pretty quickly, which makes me happy.

I know for a fact BT has very lenient enrage timers. I joined some group just for the daily because I was bored and there were 2 tanks and 1 healer... all in REALLLLLLLLLY bad gear. I was the only DPS. I ended up tanking the entire time while being the only DPS as well (the tanks had 13k health each so obviously their damage output was low). We cleared the place without hitting a single enrage timer. I know later HMs do have pretty annoying timers, but nothing you can't do with tionese/columi.
I have also cleared it with 1 tank, 2 dps and myself healing but mostly dpsing. One dps was as fresh 50 as can be and the other dps I'm not too sure about but I know he wasn't exactly the best geared. We managed to hit every single enrage timer in the place. The tank was my usual tanking buddy and we are both in all columi/rakata gear.
Hmm... well if meters existed I would be certain that the tank would be higher than those DPS- and in that case I do believe that could happen. I remember in WoW I could be practically the only dps for heroics and do fights in stupid short amounts of time. The same can be said here if at least one DPS is competent.
Oh, I don't doubt that me and the tank were above the dps. But the point still is, that it is possible that being a fresh 50 that you will still be having problems with HMs, and OPs, so it in no way hurts to spend an hour on one or two days to get some purple mods first.
Just reached 50
And need a tip
Is recruit pvp set gear acceptable for HM flashpoint (Kaon/Taral V)?
