Randulf.7614 Posted May 15, 2019 Share Posted May 15, 2019 Returned with the patch. Even ticking/unticking or requipping doesnt always fix it and if it does, it's brief.I think it is connected to getting into combat or mounts - I havent found the pattern yet, but its annoying to see it come back . It might even be connected to my shield since it happened when I switched to it as well from my rifle 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Inculpatus cedo.9234 Posted May 15, 2019 Share Posted May 15, 2019 Just to make sure....this doesn't happen when you get near the Eternal ...um... something or other-shards that you use with the Special Ability key? I noticed that one gives you a backpack. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I noticed that one gives you a backpack. Nah it's an old bug that crops up anywhere in the game and removes your back from view. Was quite prevalent when mounts first appeared. Usually a relog gets rid of it, but that isn't happening now, it just comes back. It's unconnected to what you mentioned since I haven't encountered that.

Randulf.7614 Posted May 15, 2019 Author Share Posted May 15, 2019 OK, it is only occuring to me in the new map so far. I tried a core tyria map and no issueThe shield seems to be the thing. If I stow it and reveal whether through stowing, mount or glider - I lose my backpack visuals when I unstow in any way and sometimes my shield too Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rayti.6531 Posted October 11, 2019 Share Posted October 11, 2019 Same happening in Dragonfall. Here's a video of the bug in action: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Been happening to me a bunch in WvW I second this - it's never been completely fixed. I, too, occasionally have the issue in WvW (been that way at least since gliding was added). And until I map hop or exit/re-enter WvW, the hocus-pocus persists. :lol: From my experience, it's more prone to happen if your toon uses a shield and/or if you glide ever so briefly and then stop (within a second). It seems like the coding for making the determination of what item to show on the back cannot react fast enough. And once it gets confused, it's busted until a map hop or exit of WvW happens. Anet,One possible and acceptable fix to me would be that whenever a toon uses a Way Point in WvW -- on the same map or map hopping, kick off the current code that fires and resets everything graphically when map hopping. This would also fix the bug that sometimes happens when a Ranger uses GS3/Swoop and interrupts the animation himself -- you see the translucent eagle flapping on them continuously until they map hop and everything graphically gets reset. (As long as there are no other adverse effects, like excessively longer load times, this might be a decent band-aid.) Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Khisanth.2948 Posted March 19, 2020 Share Posted March 19, 2020 Back? I don't think it was ever gone. It's just a thing that can happen if you use a character that uses a shield. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EKAN.4051 Posted August 7, 2020 Share Posted August 7, 2020 Didnt need to type much and found this, well backitem disapears when using glider sometimes, worse in map like Dragonfall, all the time. (ad infinitum back btw) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Galmac.4680 Posted August 7, 2020 Share Posted August 7, 2020 Had that a few days ago with my necro in that new drizzlewood map. Were short befoe the north meta. My backpiece (Warbringer, that WvW legendary back piece) disappeared on drawing my weapons and stayed invisible until I unchecked and checked the backpiece visibility in the hero panel. But only once and then never again so far. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sythian.8062 Posted November 10, 2020 Share Posted November 10, 2020 Wow, I thought the back piece was never visible! For me, the show/hide checkbox in the hero equipment panel works only for the helm and the shoulder. Clicking on that box does nothing for the back piece, not even a pixel changes from whichever angle I look at it. So I thought it was never implemented!Now I'm really curious to learn what I should be seeing at my back! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dagger.2035 Posted December 31, 2020 Share Posted December 31, 2020 This bug has been an issue for years. It seems to be linked to gliding and mounts after being pulled or knocked down. The only fix is to switch maps an that’s not always a viable option. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vegeta.2563 Posted January 6, 2021 Share Posted January 6, 2021 This is still an issue. One example would be riding on your mount in WvW, and when you dismount your backpack disappears. After that if you glide your backpack reappears. It might be related to the show / hide weapons, but not 100% sure on that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dylan.2735 Posted January 20, 2021 Share Posted January 20, 2021 I seem to only have this issue in Dragonfall. I have tried with multiple characters (of different races) with different back pieces.I would fix this by zooming in (so my character isnt visible anymore) and then zooming back out, and my back piece would be there again. It's not much but would still like to see it get fixed.I've noticed that capes dont disappear but this might be different for others. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Xaint.7461 Posted August 25, 2021 Share Posted August 25, 2021 not to put salt in the wounds but this happened like less than a month ago to me aswell in WvW, usually gliding / stowing weapons fixes it but as soon as weapons are drawn or u get in combat they disappear, since this happened to me years ago aswell i just started to see it as a feature rather than a bug, most of the time i keep my back untoggled anyways, tho would love to see this fully fixed one day.

medivh.4725 Posted November 5, 2021 Share Posted November 5, 2021 I have this bug with my rev. Certain skill will dissapper the backpack. Getting on mounts or changing a equipment template will bring it back. It is annoying and being reported in game for numerous times. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RoadRunner.9253 Posted December 3, 2021 Share Posted December 3, 2021 (edited) And it has returned. Mounting and unmounting, as well as stowing/drawing weapon removes the back item. I can uncheck and recheck and it reappears. Changing the aforementioned state though, makes it disappear again. Sometimes gliding makes the back item reappear too. Edit: Happening in WvW after weekly reset. Was fine before. Edited December 3, 2021 by RoadRunner.9253 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
