Hey there,
I’m glad that a reboot helped resolve this, but we’d really like to resolve this more fully.
Can you (or anyone else who has experienced this issue) help with details about your character? In particular, we’d like to know this about the character:
- What outfits did you equip or unequip (in a recent timeframe) before the issue started happening?
- Did you use any tonics? What were they?
- Did you use any Costume Brawl toys? Which ones?
- Did you change any armor pieces in the wardrobe before the issue started happening?
- Did you equip and/or upequip any sort of item or equipment (say, armor, weapons, that sort of thing) before the issue started happening? For instance, did this happen when you equipped a certain sword, put on a specific amulet, took off your helm, that sort of thing?
- What outfit and armor set was your character wearing?
- Were you making any changes to the character’s appearance or equipment while under stealth?
- Were you experiencing similar issues before this issue began? For example, were hair/eyes/armor/underwear showing up during stealth?
Thank you SO much for helping us resolve this problem.

Hey, I was actually experiencing this issue and had a good laugh about it personally. I am not currently at home and able to play GW2 but I can quickly answer some of that :
-Balthazar outfit was equipped then unequipped
-No tonics
-No toys
-Did not commit to any wardrobe changes or play around with it I don’t think
-No equipment changes (maybe I switched from d/d to s/p on my thief)
-Outfit was balthazar’s. Armor set is a mix of striders/carapace mostly
-No changes to anything. Was just running around, can’t remember why I stealthed really.
-Eyes were showing up as well as skin. No armor/hair/underwear.
Invisible Clothes – Hostile condition confirmed for HoT!
Warning do not cast on charr unless you want to intimidate your own team.
Go do the Asuran Thermanova lab fractal – You are transformed into an Asuran.
You can reproduce the going-invisible bug:
Go into the heat room ,
Die get teleported out of the room
Use Retry from checkpoint – you will be invisible for the duration of the fractal.
Solutions to solve: Go to char select → log back in → enter the fractal again.

i think this is most likely a hardware specific bug. some of my friends often turn invisible with that repro process or other randomish ways of dying. but your repro conditions dont turn me invisible and nothing i have ever done with either of my computers (old comp dead now) in that fractal ever turned me perma invis and ive definitely died by that method and many others.
plus i think thats a different bug from what OP experienced.
head here to discuss wvw without fear of infractions
