Writhing Fortress never resetting

So... only the people who were in the dungeon right at the start will ever be able to fight those three bosses or get the achievement? And it was over in a couple of hours and is never resetting? (PC-EU)

The west and east zones are deserted. No monsters spawning or respawning.

The north zone... A few monsters respawn every so often with ballista parts. You can use them to repair those ballistas... but there's nothing to fire the ballistas at. There's a huge health bar at the top of the screen, stuck at about 40%, but no monster for it to belong to.

Went away, came back from an hour. Same was still there.

And there are no instructions from anybody, or misleading instructions telling you to do something that's apparently already been done.

If you're going to instance a dungeon like this, it needs to FULLY CLOSE (and throw out every person who is in it) when the big boss falls, and then RESTART FROM TOTAL SCRATCH. Or all the monsters in it, everywhere, need to respawn, and all the things-to-do (e.g. destroying crystals with ballistas apparently) need to reset REGULARLY. Like, literally, as often as in a regular public dungeon.

    Writhing Fortress is a total mess. I just froze up, had to close and relog, only to find my progress was gone. I was in a different instance and then that instance completely bugged out for everyone in it. Facepalm.

    On EU I have gone to the Floating Last Bos Phase 2x now once a few hours after the completion for the first time and the Last Boss Bugged out. Today I was there and got the Lock up / booted with boss at 47%.

    ZOS I am sorry but you need to just shut this crap down and Find the fixes also need to reset / restart the Wall Collapsing I would say once a day for the remainder of the timer. Give EVERYONE a chance at a first time thru.

    I was there for the first run on NA and completed it then, but have also Bugged out once and crashed out another time on NA.

    This is really *** Poor results for an event that has ran for WEEKS, and appears to have only worked for the ONE first time.

    Sorry for slamming you all but . . . . . . . .

    Lastly I would give players 10 Shard Bones for their run since they appear to be really poor drop rates AND

    After completion I would lock players out for the rest of the day so those that are done are done, and let other go thru.

    There are player deliberately not Dieng if the boss needs to be reset

    Still broken by the way! Not resetting properly and what's more - restarts the QUEST without respawning enemies or a need to finish the quest. Extremely annoying. I am literally unable to experience the Fortress since everyone is already dead
