I have entered this dungeon 4 times tonight and each time when the group enters there are no mobs and you cannot get through to the last boss, it is royally bugged. Logging out of the game and back in then queuing again had no effect. Can you fix this please and if anybody else is having the same problem please post below.

I also heard that the same problem was occurring in some of the other skirmishes also

    I had the same problem this afternoon, during skirmishes no less. During the one hour period, I was only able to complete the Epic Skirmish once, which was not fun at all. I thought it might have been a short term bug, I guess I was wrong.

    The bug happens when a group wipes during The "ambush" part of The Epic version of that skirmish.

    The issue is that eventually the group leaves being unable to proceed (the door never opens) but that instance is still open, so anyone queueing will be send to that one until it is full and newer queue players are send to either another existing unfinished one or a brand new one if all opened are full.

    Solution is simple. Create/join party before queuing.

    So mmm1001 are you saying that you think this issue only arises if you happen to join an existing group, via the queue system, that has failed? because as I recall after experiencing this problem the whole group just splits up, I have then queued again, got an entirely new group and its still bugged

    It happens when the queue system places you into a bugged instance that can't be cleared. It can happen in a number of skirmishes or dungeons.

    When queuing as a group of five, you should always be placed in a fresh instance because the game won't try to queue you individually as replacements into a failed party (which is all it can register a bugged instance as).

    It has nothing to do with the composition of your party, just that your next group of randoms can keep getting placed into the bugged instance because that's what the queue system views as the priority party to fill.
