Same here. Thought it was my client so repaired the data archive when that didn't fix it started looking online & saw what had happened. Lost a couple of days worth of grind as progressing my Ranger and getting achievements ... would really HATE to do it all again.
Yes. I killed something just to make sure the XP worked in that region. I'm lvl 80 and have the legendary crafting level two selected. I'm in Kryta so it should increment, as it does when killing.
I'm doing the Skyscale rider achievement and when I go through the orbs it says I#m getting XP but the experience bar isn't moving. If I kill something I get XP and the bar moves. Is this bugged?
