Im in the same boat as a Norn Thief… was so excited to get started that I didn’t really think the decision through. Now at level 80 cant really see myself grind out another thief, as it is my favourite profession.
I just tried the quest again and can confirm that it is working flawlessly! Im not sure if Anet brought down the difficulty as well but I managed to keep all my comrades alive and finish the quest without dieing, except for a little damaged armor. Either that or I’ve become an expert in the quest :p
Not sure if this is been reported but Jormag dynamic event is not working. The event starts, its shown on map and top right of the screen but the dragon itself is nowhere to be seen. Even though the NPC are shooting and the music is playing there is nothing there to attack.
Dont know about other servers but thats what is happening in Yak’s Bend
I managed to I get a little further in the quest by always having trahearn lead the first hit on a mob or by bringing the mob to where he is stuck as suggested before and ended up getting him up to right before the tomb room. I pressed “f” to talk to him and it just skipped the whole “finale” of the quest and went to the end dialogue scene but still was not completed. It is still asking to “escort trahearn to the Tomb”
Heres a screen shot where you can see on top right how the middle objective got skipped
Character Name: Pakattack
Server: Yak’s Bend
Story Step: Level 80 – Against the Corruption
You start by zoning into the instance at the Cursed Shore in the Ruins of Orr. After approaching Trahearne and going through a short cut-scene, you are tasked with escorting Trahearne to the Royal Tombs. Along the way you are ambushed by a group of undead. After defeating them and continuing forward you meet an elite guarding the entrance to a cave.
After you kill the elite, Trahearne and the other guards that are with you stop moving. If you enter the cave and drag mobs back to them they will run up and fight, but they reset outside the cave after the mobs die.

It seems a lot of people are having this issue. I also attached a screen shot for better explanation.
