This was in the Visitor Event Guide thread:
When they refer to two dimensions they don't appear to refer to the secondary room that you can run off to. But instead think of being able to switch teams in CPQ. The enemies which were transparent for you would become visible and vice-versa. Apparently you can only be damaged by a bomb if it's visible (aka you're in the same dimension) and not if it's transparent. You can actually SEE that this is the case because at 31 seconds into the video on page 1 the enemies at the middle left (dextrous aliens) go from being invisible to being visible. Also, there are also several large explosions that don't kill everyone in the map (because those were probably in the other dimension. You can see examples starting at around 50 seconds. They go into the middle portal and the bomb is no longer clearly visible, but slightly blurry. It goes off, nothing happens to them. (a few others stayed behind and got nuked though).
So yeah, at least there's not as big of a need to worry about the bombs now. A single aran using tempest will also allow the party to get rid of 12 mobs. Just let the aran build up his combo on a crowd and he can pretty much solo most of the room (with a mage to use an ultimate to shatter all of the frozen enemies) until it gets down to 3 or less scattered mobs. Then just snipe with a MM or go taken down the remaining 3ish mobs with your whole party.

In this room, there are two enemies, two dimensions, and a whole lot of trouble. Depending what dimension you are in, half the enemies will be transparent, the other half wholesome. Make sure your entire party is in the same dimension, and then ONLY attack the enemies that are transparent. Upon death, these enemies will drop bombs, which one-hit-kill any player in that dimension. Once all the transparent enemies are dead, use the standard portal in the center of the floor to switch dimensions, and repeat the process.
Once all enemies are defeated, proceed to the next room.
