This is going to be a little ragepost, but I’m tired of trying to get rid of that thing.

At one point in HoT story, Commander gains a green bag of egg. Cool. Your mission is to get it to safety in Tarir. No problem. And by all means Commander Mary Sue did it for the sake of Tyria – praises be upon him!

Satisfied you leave instance and carry on.

And then at some point you want to make achievements. Nothing else to do, item is required for some collection, why not? Ain’t that hard.
You do it over again. You grab it, you deliver it, what comes first? Doesn’t matter, you just replay chapters.

AND THEN YOU SEE IT. That fluffy, cute and exquisitively scented egg is STILL on your back! HOW?!
Let’s take it easy, think. THINK kitten! Let’s progress again. Do a story beyond egg. It worked! Proud of yourself you leave AB. After a day or two you come back to tear to pieces mordrem… and that beautiful dream of your life is still on your back there.

On that moment you lose your control and something breaks.

ANet,
With due respect, WHY did you bring that ballsack in the first place to open world? It never should exist there! Because of that “cosmetic flavour to storyline progress” some people may be cursed with visual bug.

Remove it, I beg you.

Are you saying you did the story instance where you deliver the egg to Tarir and then the egg backpack still appears on your character in the open world? I’m pretty tired at the moment so your post didn’t make much sense to me, but I think that’s what you meant.

If so then that’s a bug. Once you’ve dropped the egg off the backpack should disappear.

Of course it will be there if you’re on one of the story steps where you’re carrying it, but if that bothers you can’t you just switch to a different step temporarily?

Word, same here. Would make a great back item skin. We need way more simple and practical looking back items like it.

This isn’t eggsactly the worst problem in HoT story.

Sorry, just trying to see the sunny side up of the issue.

Or maybe I just like making bad yokes.

ANet,

Remove it, I beg you.

Don’t remove it. I love it. I’ve honestly thought of leaving characters stuck at City of Hope just to have that backpiece on them while in AB. I want that egg backpack as an actual backpack skin (not gemstore please!). If you’ve done City of Hope and it won’t go away then it’s a bug, not a feature.

The bug needs to be fixed, but that’s all it is – a bug. Report it, move on, and hope they fix it. There’s no need to beg for the entire concept to be removed – because it’s a rather fun concept which makes the story and open world mesh more.

Besides, it only shows up in one zone. That’s not too bad, when there’s 30 others. I kind of wish it didn’t, personally, but I’ll take what I can get.

Like it as an actual backpiece. -hint hint anet-

From what I gather:

The OP finished the story then replayed Prized Possessions for the achievements. However, that resulted in the egg backpack showing up afterwards, so they did City of Hope after and it went away. But the next time they came back to AB it returned for some reason unknown.

Which is not a bug and should not deem the entire idea of it removable.

Dear ANet writers,
Stop treating GW2 as a single story. Each Season and expansion should be their own story.

My reaper has completed the story twice, and currently has no story steps active. Every time he enters auric basin, that blasted egg shows up on his back.

Those armadillos would be a lot cooler if they looked more like real armadillos. mmm armadillos

LOL. I had to waste my time to complete delivering the egg(the part where you place the egg on that alter with a beam) to remove it after going back for achievements.

This is a bug and should be reported, honestly. Doesn’t merit the OP’s demands for removing the feature entirely.

Yea, this should be posted in the bug report forums so they take a look at it and figure out what causes it so it can get fixed.
