Need Bug fixed to complete Mawdrey!
There are two workarounds to complete this step:
- Instead of picking up the head, ignore the statue entirely and walk past the mortar, onto the ‘floor’ above the water. Logout the character and quickly log back in. When you return, you’ll be in the water and can proceed normally.
- Alternatively, take one of the mesmer portals to Rhendak’s tomb and work your way backwards through the mini-dungeon. There will be a chain allowing you to open any gates in your way.
FYI the bug has been noted by ANet; no ETA for a fix.
