Wanted to report a bug that the backitems for engineers now are invisible if you wear a kit’s hobosack. I strongly beleve you wanted to achieve the opposite, right ANet? So we engis can use the new back items aswell, or any other back item.
Please fix it asap, I want my spinal wings back.
Thx.
This seems to be the common theme with almost every ‘improvement’.
Q: Hobosacks and back items mesh together in a horrible mess which must be fixed. Almost everybody hates Hobosacks. Almost everybody wants to have the cool backpack of their choosing.
To fix this do you, (a) get rid of the thing that everybody hates, or, (b) get rid of the thing that everybody wants?

“Are now”? This is not new. Back items have a tendency to disappear at times and it’s particularly noticeable for engis due to kits, but I’ve had my thief’s back piece disappear for a while as well. Usually my engi has either the kit backpack or her wings displayed, but at times I’ve gotten both at the same time, and I think I may have also gotten neither showing. It’s quite silly and rather annoying.
Yea I know that there were clipping issues and my engineer allways had both back items and hobos active. It looked strange but at least I’ve seen my wings.
So there is no doubt that ANet tried to get rid of the hobo sacks for all the engineers out there but accidently have made a mistake so now the hobo sacks are displayed instead of all the new and cool back items.
ANet, will it be fixed soon?
Please fix this Anet. I used to look so kitten with my spinal blades fused with my engi kit. Now I’m stuck with the same floating back crap hobosack that I had before I got my blades. Please don’t make this bug permanent.
Anything ANet? Noone working on weekends to answer this post? :P Well see ya mondays hopefully. ^^
RIP Mad Memories personal light, and on fire napalm flamethrower backpack.
Exactly what I feared would happen, did.
How bout a little choice and options for players? Nah, engineers are just one profession…
Edit: It appears I spoke a little soon.
While the Mad Memories (and all backpieces) disappear physically, some things do remain – the book still illuminates the area around me.
Still, my napalm pack is no longer on fire.

The simple and obvious solution would have been: An Engi sets their Back Item to visible, the hobosack doesn’t show. The Stupid Solution would be: Hobosacks make the Back Item gone, whether it’s set to visible or not.
Guess which solution they went for.
Yea a self made back item should allways have the priority over the hobo sack T_T
