City of Ash 1 | door to final boss

On several occasions, the door to the final boss is inaccessible to one group member. This happens infrequently and I've been unable to isolate any pattern or scenario for replication.

Platform
XBox One :: NA Server

Symptoms:
- 'open door' text is highlighted white
- when player activates the door, the animation triggers to open, but text greys out
- no message or feedback is offered (unlike when a boss has been missed)
- other group members can enter without issue

Workaround
With a group of friends, we worked out that if someone who is inside comes back out, the door becomes usable again -- however, last night, we ended up taking it in turns to get locked out by helping other members through (only to be stuck ourselves).

With friends or guildies, it's easy to communicate this workaround, but with PUGs, the reaction is often to leave you behind, unable to enter and unable to loot when the activity completes. This has also happened to me on more than one occurrence.

Side Note
Doors are a constant source of frustration in dungeons. Is there no better mechanic (i.e. a spell barrier)?
