1/2 year later - Sign Cutting still bugged.
What part of Sign Cutting bugs for you? You said “at the rock”, but I’m not sure which part you mean. I just ran most of HoT story earlier today on one of my characters, and it all worked fine.
When HoT came out there was this pretty nasty bug at the second clue, which was the rock, that a ton of players had it not work. There were multiple forum threads listing different methods to “un-bug” the situation and for a good chunk of players it worked. Then ANet released a patch and it seemed to fix it for most of the community. Though I’m still stuck at the same rock till now.
