Quest Bugs. Sigh.

Forgotten Wisdom (Skyward Reach in Augury Rock) - Suppose to go down to to the Arid Sea to some guy and you will get 1000XP + 15 Attribute Points. First of all, it is impossible to find that person because he's on a mountain and there is no way to access the mountain. No ramps to go up, no bridges. Can't even reach or see that guy. Star points directly to the middle of the mountain.

The Ranger's Path (Seeker's Passage) - Go to Salt Flats and kill Yxthosth. After killing him, quest doesnt update and still says kill boss.

Wasted over 3 hours on both of these and I am quite disappointed :*(

This one is possible. It took me a bit to figure out how to get up there as well. You have to go completely around the other side of that mountain/hill/whatever you wanna call it, and there will be a ramp that you can walk up to get to another hill. From this hill(has some stone structures on it) there is a rocky bridge that you walk across to get to the main mountain. At first I didn't think I was able to walk on this bridge, it looked like I was stuck. But, there is a certain part that you can walk over, and you're home free.

Not sure about that other quest.

Also did you /bug them?
If you don't report them then a fix may not be on the way!

Yeah the stony bridge is actually a giant staute that has fallen over. You CAN walk across it, it's just a tricky path to find.

There really is a bug on that map, but it isn't the fact that you can't get there. The hill you go on isn't the hill he's on, it's the hill next to it. You can walk over he fallen statue right down the middle and head down, even though it looks like you can't.

The bug happens when you are far away from the hill, the statue is upright and standing tall, but when you get close it has toppled down. At least I think it's a bug

Regarding this one, I'll quote part of a post I made in another thread.

I later almost did the same for the Ranger quest, but thought to check before I zoned out. I'm glad I did.

So yeah, could be bugged or bad wording.
