Guild Wars 2

I am currently playing a Norn, not in any party, and I am experiencing inconsistent XP rewards for exploration objectives, across several zones (so far, Lion’s Gate and Gendarren Fields). Sometimes, discovering a new point of interest or a waypoint will reward me with XP, and sometimes it does not. When it does not give XP, it also is missing a sound effect for finding the PoI/WP, and there is no splash text on the right hand side. This appears to be happening for the first place I discover upon zoning into an area (although I’m reluctant to extensively test this, because that’s kinda a waste of XP).

I logged into Lion’s Gate overflow, then zoned into the server. I discovered a new point of interest and was not awarded XP. I went to Hoelbrek and did my personal story quest and returned to Lion’s Gate and was not given XP for a waypoint I discovered. I then left Lion’s Gate and headed north to Gendarren Fields. There was no XP for the first waypoint, but I ran through the zone and the second waypoint and first point of interest both gave XP.

This is also occurring for the general area discovery (when yellow text appears on your screen).

Happens to me somewhat frequently, not sure what is up with that.
