Travel to player not working as it used to.....

...for travel to Coldharbour. No matter where the player is across the Chasm I am always ported to the Shrouded Plains wayshrine. This was porting to a friend (my alt account) but I've used this many times for all my alts before. I'm only picking up shards and no way am I repeating the crossing the chasm quest for every alt!

Not only shards up there, there are dig sites as well as survey sites. If this was intentional then someone made an oops!

it is quest locked. there is a workaround -- have your friend go into the delve at the top right of the map and then travel to him --- just dont use a wayshrine after that or it will put you back down at shrouded plains

I wonder if porting to someone in the quest-locked region had the potential to mess up the zone questline? Or maybe they just changed it to be more consistent with the way things work with Eyevea and the Earth Forge?

Yes, on one of my alts I couldn't get the quest giver to run Cadwells silver....I just used a different alt to get the motif set, but that's a fair point

If the character you are traveling to has completed all the Coldharbour quests it should work.I used my character that's completed all the quests to get my friend the wayshrines. However her character then couldn't help me get the wayshrines for my new character in return.

That could be it.

I haven't needed to get a port up there in a long time but I know years ago it was very hit or miss whether someone who ported to you ended up north of the divide or not and we had no idea why.

Might be some other bugs at work here as well. Yesterday I grouped with a friend do the wb's in Glenumbra. He didn't have all the wayshrines and whenever he tried to travel to me at one he didn't have it would take him to one he had previously discovered.
