Congratulations Arenanet. You've convinced me never to finish my personal story.

6th time I have reached a bug that stops any and all progression.
6 times I have wasted my time for no reward.
Even after you said you fixed the bug in your list of patch notes so… well done.
The potential rewards from the storyline clearly do not outweight the potential hours wasted achieving nothing, as I have done 6 times now.

It’s been addressed in previous thread. Go check it out.

I am not planning on playing through the rest of the story, by reading several threads, that may or may not address issues that were supposedly fixed

I have no reason to trust that fix though.
I have tried under the pretense of a ‘fix’ before.
Sorry. Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me 6 times, shame on me.

The fact they still allow your hate-filled post to hang around shows the integrity of their company. Many others would have just deleted everything you put up. If one part of the game not working properly is throwing you into this big of a fit then you might wanna find other avenues of entertainment. They gave you the info, if you’re too lazy to put forth the effort to go read it, then that’s on you. New games always have unexpected bugs, just the nature of the beast.

They do indeed.
But I do expect a standard higher than this. When patch notes say “fixed” I expect them to mean it.
And when I say 6th time, I don’t mean just this quest. Others too.
If it was just a bug, then that would be fine. But I tried this quest 1 week ago, and since then it was supposedly fixed. Guess what… nothing’s changed. I don’t find that acceptable, and I am sorry that concerns you.

I’m going to disagree with you, without throwing a fit .
Th e bugs in this game are some of the most discouraging and frustrating bugs I’ve ever come across. Event scripts for DE’s not working for days on end. The need for a Guardian #5 skill to ‘un-stuck’ NPC events.
I have been 100%‘ing the map recently. I got to Ebonhawke yesterday and literally, the W H O L E map was bugged. From leaving the gates out of the fort you encounter the Royal Messengar who was bugged… So, I moved on to the next ’heart’ or event which ended up me needing to help save two dogs, where the NPC had just stopped in her tracks and just to the north, we were on 7/8 waves to save a camp of Ogre invaders.
The entire map was this way. It’s so common and frustrating, and the fit comes from trying to enjoy something that is frankly broken.
I don’t have a sense of entitlement or anything like that. However, I can say without question that the event scripting dudes need to wake up. It’s destroying this game.

This is what your ‘fix’ did Arenanet.
I killed the krait last, as stupid and difficult as that was.

Here may be a suggestion for you…
I see from both screen shots you have posted that your party is still split up..
In the first SS one party member is still way up on the path away from you..
And in this latest SS 2 or 3 members of the party in the map screen bottom right are right off the map..
Maybe they are still fighting mobs you have missed in those areas ?
And that is why the event is not continuing.
Just a suggestion have a look.

Just another bug I suppose.
They just stop following me and do nothing.
Don’t think I’ve done a full run without a follower just doing nothing.
So far, 3 times on forging the pact.
And today, 4 times on tower down.
I wonder, how many more till I do this one?
How many more till I finish the story?
Possibly in the dozens.
