[Suggestion] Make the Portals in Gunbad Teleport you to the Boss Instance

I have been attempting to get full wards from Gunbad for some time now, but every time we attempt to fight the bosses, there's a significant chance that the portal teleports a player to Altdorf instead of the boss instance. I suggest the portals be fixed so that the portal takes you to the fight. If there's a reason this isn't possible, I have a couple of alternative suggestions:

A) Change the ward system to that on live, so that you only need to get 4/5 to participate in the next tier of pve (albeit at a disadvantage). This will reduce the amount of times necessary for getting 6/6 players through the boss portals successfully. Or change it so that there are alternate pathways to the wards.

B) Add portals in Altdorf that will take the mistakenly teleported player directly to the instance.

Additionally, I suggest adding partyresetinstance back into the game so that fewer "fight is in progress, cannot teleport" issues occur.

I have wasted well over 14 hours cumulatively due to mis-teleports and instances failing to reset. This really damages the QoL of doing Gunbad. I remember this content being enjoyable on live, but now it's an ordeal.

Don't enter portal on a mount.

Happens even unmounted too. This isn't a valid suggestion.

It actually doesn’t happen unmounted. I’ve done 20ish runs since I’ve discovered no mount and guess what, no one from my party had been TP’d to city since.

It’s not as good as not having the code fixed but it’s not a hard bug to avoid.

No idea, where your problem is but nobody ever got ported to town if unmounted and one guy in my last groups got ported as he used mount, as expected. Even the devs mentioned it, that mounting causes it.

I'm not sure why mounts would cause this issue, my suggestion is to let the leader start the instance and when he fully loads into the instance other players should join him.

it does happens unmounted, just much more rare
