Rotating Bridge Reset

I am doing a side quest. There's an old exit only. If you accidentally take it, you leave. Upon returning, the rotating bridge is in the wrong position. 

You can't jump to it, despite jumping that far with the jump spell elsewhere. You can't fly to it, because for some reason flight is just an anti-melee hover spell. I read misty step doesn't work either. You just overshoot it and die. 

Is the cut scene of the bridge spinning really that important? 

If you won't make flight better, like the Sorak that could go higher than 4 squares, then at least always have the bridge reset.

Or let us come back in the back door.

Agreed, went back there to pick up the chest that you cant get without fly.  Cant fly over the chasm to rotate the bridge back for the rest of the party.  Also the chest in the Library, cant fly to that either...  What is the point of the fly spell if you cant fly over chasm's or pits to get to those areas.

Hell in table top that is one of the most basic uses of the spell...  Technically levitate, a rope, and a good push can do it to but that doesnt work with the spell in this game either.  

Any plans to work this out?

same here, what is really a burr in my side is that if i'm flying then misty step part way there i still fall to my death even though i'm flying?  same is true if i misty step to almost the floor and die, even though i would survive the fall damage, but again shouldn't fall since i'm flying

Makes me wonder if I can shove an air elemental to it's death off a cliff.

Just noticed this in my game just now (bridge the wrong way - doh!); however I've finished up all the quests in the area I think (unless more pop up).  

Ouch!, heres hoping to a fix next patch.

Ran into this problem too when doing one of the side quests you can get from the quest board.

Same issue here. I was hoping getting the Spider Walk shoes would help since the flying spell didn't. Definitely bugged. Was able to visit this area one extra time when it had a bunch of spiders in it. It looks like the devs had an event trigger at the end of the first quest to reset the bridge, but forgot to trigger the same event after any subsequent visit.

I realize this is a necro, but I couldn't find a solution for this on any of the other threads. Just writing to report that Dimension Door (4th level spell for Wizards at least) will get you across, and then you can rotate the bridge to get your party through.
