Guild Wars 2

I have just completed the Apothecary portion of my storyline quest and have been sent to speak with the Sentry to locate the cave where the bandits are hiding out.

I have located the cave. The bandits are not friendly to me, nor have I had the blessing activate which is suppose to cloak me as one of them. I am stuck at this point with no way to progress in the storyline.

From searching online, this was a known problem in 2012, so I suspect either no one has looked into it, or it has glitched again. What should I do?

Have you spoken to the Seraph north of Shaemoor Garrison? You have to talk to him so that he can “tell” you where to go. Once you talk to him, a green star will appear on your mini map, so you’ll know where to go.
