Problems to join in Personal Storyline Quest
This can be related to parties not functioning properly. Sometimes, the location of players is not updated such that the following may happen:
-Party member’s portrait is black even if they’re in the same zone
-Party member’s map icon will disappear from map when they’re not in the immediate area
-On guild lists it will not show an updated location (example: Player is currently in Lion’s Arch, the guild list may still say “The Grove”)
If this is happening, it will not allow your partner to enter the story with you.
However, if the party member locations are updating then I don’t know
We were in the same zone. About the Guild list and the updated location honestly i don’t know, maybe later i’ll try again being careful at the guild list. I hope this is the problem! Thank you very much for your answer
I had this issue last night as well. Following the initial Priory Story arc. Tried every event until the one at level 39. My team mates were standing next to me, their pictures did not appear black. We all even tried completely closing the program and restarting. Not one of my team members could join or be joined.
