This is because they made it now possible to fill in open spots of party members that quit in the middle of the dungeon. I posted something in General already about it but looked like the admins didn't like my post and they deleted it. This new feature often leads to the situation that you end up in front of last boss (because ppl often quit there after 1-2 wipes) or you are placed somewhere in the middle of the map while you team is far away und unreachable or you are placed at the final boss when he is already dead. This "feature" came new with module 2.

I have joined the Mad Dragon five times today with the dungeon finder, and every single time, I ended up in the last room with the boss dead and chest closed. Not just that, but I've tried joining fifteen times in total, and all the other ten times, only the three first spots were green. The last two was red, meaning no players. Yeah, it's broken. Definitely broken. My best suggestion is finding a group through the LFG-channel or, preferably, the NW_Legit_Community custom channel (assuming you're a legit player, of course. Meaning no exploits and such.)
Well I joined Mad Dragon yesterday and ended up before last boss which we killed then. I joined Grey Wolf Den, before last boss also which we killed. Then Idris, before last boss but fight already over and Malabog in the middle of the map.
I spawned into an empty normal Mad Dragon from queue yesterday, and used the opportunity to go back through the dungeon and loot chests/skill nodes. People continued to join the dungeon and leave throughout the time I was in there. (Some of them quit and rejoined multiple times, so there seems to be a priority given to filling dungeons with partial squads from queue, a check needs to be made that the dungeon isn't completed.)

This would explain my confusion to popping into the middle of Malabog's Castle with my party back at the beginning. I was wondering what in the world was going on!

Maybe the only way to avois this annoying bug is to use the door in the area...
