Issue

The iron_vanguard zone only has a single boss assigned to it, whilst other zones of similar scope have multiple bosses. This creates a very short engagement with that zone and reduces the content variety.

Expected Behaviour

Each zone should have a reasonable number of bosses to provide a sense of progression and challenge within that zone before the player moves on.

Steps to Reproduce

Open apps/api/src/data/bosses.ts
Filter bosses by their zoneId (or equivalent)
Note that iron_vanguard has only one boss

Suggested Fix

Add additional bosses to iron_vanguard with appropriate combat power requirements to fill the gap between the zone's entry point and its exit to the next zone.

Priority

🟢 Low — reduces content variety but doesn't break progression

Closing as invalid — iron_vanguard is an equipment set ID, not a zone ID. There is no zone with this identifier in the bosses data. All 18 zones already have 3–5 bosses each. The audit script appears to have confused setId with zoneId when generating this ticket.
