I was able to obtain a full team to attempt completion of the Salt in the Wound event. Thank you very much Linken.6345. Even though I did not hit anywhere near the required 10 wounds as directed, I did receive the achievement. I want to mention that the rest of the team was all in the same predicament and to their delight, they ALL received the achievement as well. This was also achieved on the first attempt as a full party. Granted this was a positive outcome; however, the weeks of attempting solo and with a lower number of party members is simply unacceptable for an over a year-long known bug. There should be some direction on the wiki page that explains how the entire achievement is irreversibly bugged and the only method of collection is for a full party. So I want to again thank Linken and Anet for this forum.
