Ghostly Infusions Don't Show up in PvP
I bought a ghostly infusion for aesthetic but for some reason the ‘Aura’ Only shows up in the PvE world, is this intentional or is it bugged? If it is intentional I’d love to hear the reason why as other cosmetic auras like the bat one are still working in the mists
I don’t think it’s a bug — I think there are a lot of effects etc disabled in PvP for various reasons. (Or at least, ANet hasn’t responded to any of the other posts I’ve seen on the same topic.)

The bats aren’t a cosmetic aura…. they’re an entire piece of armor, not an upgrade to a trinket. Since those are disabled in PvP, you won’t see the effect.

yea i just bought mine today hoping it shows up i pvp cuz thats all i do, but it doesn’t. It’s really kinda stupid it wouldn’t but i hope the devs fix it
It’s not a bug and is intended. As Anet keeps introducing aura infusions, you could potentially stack like 5+ auras. In pvp that could become an issue with not being able to see telegraphed skills of opponents which puts the opponent at an advantage.
A change they could consider is having the aura on player side only. So nobody else could see it and therefore preventing the issue of aura stacking, but still allowing people who bought the aura infusion to see it.
