Guild Wars 2

SPOILER ALERT!!!!

I encountered a bug (I guess it is) during the Norn’s Personal Story, Unexpected Visitors (Lvl. 11).

My character obviously drank too much in the moot with a charr fella, and we are supposed to escort a bunch of charrs to retrieve some machine I lost or whatever…

On our way, the bridge collapses, and we have to deal with a number of Sons of Svanirs. After killing them all, I think I’m supposed to talk to Ballista Geargrind. I think so because the quest marker on the mini map stays on where she is. But the funny thing is, she doesn’t respond at all. As a matter of fact, she doesn’t even follow me. How can I ‘escort’ them when they cannot follow me?

Maybe it has something to do with the fact that she died during the battle and I revived her? I have tried this quest before with a different character in a different server, and it worked perfectly. I don’t understand why it doesn’t work this time.

It may be not a bug, maybe I screwed something up, but I’m completely lost. I don’t know what to do. Please reply.

The current objective is to escort the carravan. Anything else is already done.
And yes, the bridge is repaired by the engineers.

Let me try this once again, and if I encounter this again, I will post more.

Thanks for your prompt reply.

Ok, so I’ve done this quest FIVE times today and I haven’t been able to finish it.
Every time after the bridge is repaired, four charrs leave the group and head to the town.

But Ballista and two iron legion marksmans just stay on the road before the bridge and do NOTHING.

The three dolyaks were alive and fine. I killed all mobs in the location including rabbits but It was no good.

Is there something I missed? I guess that every single time Ballista was killed and we have to revive her, but it’s impossible to keep her alive when the veteran and boss spawn…

Thanks for any help. I think it may has something to do with the Ballista revival…

add character name Zane Vigil, ill just join you and do it with you and prevent npc from dying, the bug wont be fixed but atleast you can progress (wont be on for another 5-6 hrs tho, at work)
