Guild Wars 2

I’ve completed the Called to Service mission twice and get to the end, where Gavin says that his wounds have weakened him, and the mission log says I have to Talk To Gavin. But no matter how much I click on him, the talk never activates and I cannot complete the mission. When I try to walk away and come back, it says I’m going to be kicked from the instance.

I even tried letting myself get kicked and came back — and I had to do the entire mission over again. It hung at the same spot — can’t talk to Gavin as he stands there at the mouth of the cave.

I assume I’m missing something and that it’s not a bug… but I see someone else has the same issue, so perhaps it IS a bug…

So what am I missing? (Or IS it a bug?)

Thanks for any help for a GW2 noob (who used to play GW1 casually)

I am having the same issue. Anyone know the solution?

Edit: Left, restarted, managed to finish it on second try.

I just did it the first time, and while the objective changed as you say, I didn’t have the option to talk to Gavin. I’d run ahead of him and killed; I’ll try it again.

Second time it worked fine.
On the first time, he just stood there after the objective changed; on the second, he knelt and I had the F(Talk) come up.

I have had this quest bug on me several times with two different characters. I can always get to the point in which I need to speak to Gavin upon reaching the cave exit, but then either nothing happens after talking to him, or I cannot talk/interact with him at all and he just stands or kneels there.
I’ve gotten past it by resetting it (twice with my first character and once with my second).

This problem occurred yesterday (May 8th, 2014) and today (May 9th, 2014).
