Hello,

Since the new zones are instanced, I've found it very difficult to play with my husband and friends. Every time we go to a new zone, we're split up, despite being in a party together. This is very frustrating considering when they instanced the zones previously we could port to a party members instance or it would put us in the same zone if we were partied - this was a long time ago so I apologize if my recollection isn't 100% accurate.

So here's my question, there's a gate separating Sea of Clouds and Western Coerthas, can we unlock this gate with a side quest perhaps? Also, I noticed there are multiple zones with boulders or gates preventing us from manually zoning into them (by walking) and thus preventing us to choose instances; is this just because of early access and / or can we open them with side quests / main story quests?

Any information would be helpful, thank you.
