My character is with the Priory. I completed the Battle of Claw Island, and then went on to defend the beaches of Lion’s Arch as an Avatar of Balthazar in “The Ghost Rite”. At the end of this scenario, I am asked to choose my next course of action:

  1. Trahearne suggests I meet up with Tegwen and Carys.
  2. Gixx wants to introduce me to a Charr and Asura pair, Barron and Fero.

I chose option number 1, to meet up with Tegwen and Carys.

But when I noticed that Gixx was following me around, I talked to him. He said he was sending Barron and Fero to me, which is wrong. And moreover, he addressed me as LIGHTBRINGER. I am of the Durmand Priory, not the Order of Whispers.

Have you by any chance completed a story instance which let you make order-based decisions in a party with someone? This is known to cause order switches as the game tries to let you play together.

If I have, then it’s been a loooooong time ago. I am certain that I soloed the last several Personal Story instances, and I have only rarely accepted Story Completion when accompanying someone else on theirs. “The Ghost Rite” (also soloed) is a Durmand Priory-only scenario. So I know I am still considered to be Durmand Priory.

WIKIing “The Ghost Rite” says that this is indeed what Gixx says when you speak to him after you have made your decision. At the very least, since this is a Durmand Priory Personal Story, they need to change “Lightbringer” to “Magister”. Although it would be better if they auto-detected your Order, since a non-Priory character could be along for the ride, helping out with the Party Leader’s story.
