I think this is a pretty poor design choice in regards to this mission. A team based game, and you can’t even bring your own team with you into this encounter if they aren’t at this mission step, or if they have already completed it?
A few of us did this a a couple days ago, as we were ahead of a few of our company mates in terms of level and quest progression. Last night, one in our crew made it to this mission and asked for some help, only to find out we can’t even enter to help him?? So he now has to sit there and wait for more people to show up that need a group, hope they are a decent level to complete the fight, and hope they have an open spot in their group for him?
Seems a little off to me.
