Yes, that is what I mean.

The only thing SoF needs is the same thing every other boss fight in this game has, but SoF does not. What might that be, you ask?
Group dies = reset.

SoF makes us waste precious time despite it being obvious the group will not be able to stop Vishap. We need a chance for reset, period.

No other bossfight has had the mechanic where the boss ignores you and has its own objective (destroy the gate). Normal bossfight when everyone dies the boss resets since he has no one else to fight. In SoF when everyone's dead the gate is still there, the target of the dragon.
My guess is that this was such a new take on things that they did not really think of the timesink it would bring with it.

This is just my personal thought on how this problem might've started.

Can't you do that in battle on the Big Bridge? Its been a while since i've done it, but i wanna say i remember dying and just returning to start to skip weakness. I could be wrong though.
