Hi. I am unsure if this is just a feature I dont know about, but likely a bug so I decided to post here. It also more often occurs in WvW than PvE so I almost posted in WvW forums.
Anyway,
I have 8 level 80’s. None have this issue except my newest created character, my human male mesmer. He wears COE Berserker’s armor in full with all ruby orbs but I used fine transmutation stones to change it into all full t3 human armor.
Recap: Armor = T3 Human Zerker w/ Ruby Orb and Abyss/Celestial/Purple Dye. (Transmuted off COE Armor which contained golemmancer runes obviously) While transmuting, I left the Golemmancer runes in because the t3 had nothing in it at all. I then immediately went to the TP and inserted the 6 Ruby Orb’s into the armor, fully replacing all runes on the t3, with Orb’s. (Doubt it matters but I use Whisperblade, Anomoly, VotM for weps)
Issue: Randomly, and rarely, there will be a Mark I Golem that spawns from me. 85 Percent of the time this happens in WvW and he does not have a guild tag, but is blue color like he is partied. He does not do a spin attack or move, simply plants for maybe 3-5 seconds max and disapeers. I could be in WvW for 3 hours and it might happen twice. I could be in WvW for an hour and it might never happen. I have seen other people with golemmancer armor, the same name of golem, but he will move and have a guild tag., Mine does none of the such. Sometimes he disapeers in 1 second, sometimes 3 seconds. It is quite rare for me to witness this. I know it is mine due to the amount of times it has happened, and the proximity of people near me, the color, and the variety of locations it has happened while I am the only player nearby. It has happened only once in PvE, and it actually attacked for a second, causing a perfectly LOS’d monster ball to scatter. Again, I gear checked everyone, no one had golemmancer runes, and it showed its usual characterisics of not having any guild tag.
Even though its an extreme RNG, its a liability to me, causing scatter issues in PVE, and WvW its just, annoying and wierd. WHAT IS CAUSING THIS?!?!??!!
My only guess is that when I transmuted the COE Armor w/Golemancer to T3 Human, that even after I overrode the runes with Ruby Orbs, somehow occassionaly a glitch happens that activates my “summon” a golem #6 ability on those out-dated-ex-transmuted golemmancer runes.
Is there some crazy WvW ability from a guild or something that makes this happen? Could it be a rare bug? Has this been heard of before? If I could be assured it wouldn’t happen in PVE I would be happier as the group was upset someone used CC on a LOS’d group of enenmy’s and also called my armor bad and I almost got kicked.
What could be causing this? Not sure what other info to give.
Im usually 10/20/0/0/30. I am 400 Cooking and around 140 Artificing. I have only 2 pieces of ascended gear (rings). My sigils never use “summoning charges” and never have. I am in [BGW] guild.
Any other questions, just PM on forums or respond on thread. Very curious, but also would like the issue taken care of and removed.
