I usually just build the bridge myself and cross. You can do this with [b]any[/b] class:
Kill Swordbearer next to the platform. Do not activate the platform while killing him. Then stand directly in the center of the platform. As soon as the totem makes that 'whoosh' noise, [i]walk[/i] off the platform just past the outer ring and then [i]walk[/i] back to the center of the platform. Do this twice. On the third time, the platform will be fully constructed before the third 'whoosh' noise. Grab the sword and cross. You'll have about between 5 and 10 seconds to spare on the sword if you do it right.
Edit: in order to do this, you need to start the encounter and wait at the bridge for the Swordbearer to run straight towards you. If he goes right or left, restart the encounter.

will definitly try it for fun. Usually the SB runs away and hide like a ... But yes maybe every third time the SB runs directly to the platform. So apparently there is enough time to form the bridge completely after killing the SB (near the platform)? WIll try!

Yep. If done right, you'll have about 5 seconds to spare after you cross the bridge.

For sure solo building the bridge is do able but for time and efficiency jumping is my chosen method.
