A few days ago (the 15th) I was doing my daily World Boss tour, and we got to Modniir Ulgoth.
We were doing the sackfarm pre event and the waves of enemies were arriving, however many players said that they couldn’t see the enemies, myself included.
The enemies were clearly spawning and moving correctly, as I could see other players responding to them correctly. I could also see my own damage numbers appearing when I attacked them.
This is not a graphics problem, because even the enemies nameplates were not displaying, yet I have it set in the options to show everything, but it is probably related to the game not showing the model due to ‘character model limit’ and not drawing the nameplate correctly.
I mentioned this in chat and a few other people said that they were experiencing it as well, this has happened several times since then, usually at Ulgoth or Teq (where there are lots of enemies and groups of players).
Yesterday I was doing Teq, and I noticed lots (was very annoying) of instanced where I would see the downed icon (not the defeated one), which didn’t appear on the map, but appeared a lot. I could not revive or interact with them at all.
I would also see some occurrences where I would see players names (and tags) fading in and out, including one instance where I saw one commander tag which was clearly in the wrong place (see the screenshot, they are using the turret as well as another player, despite they are in a different location on the map). The yellow comm is also clearly underground.
I saw a thread which stated this was happening in WvW as well (but didn’t really mention PvE that much);

I think it is all the same bug, but this does not explain why I was [not] seeing downed players that I couldn’t revive, or why some players appeared in places they shouldn’t be (multiple people using the turret, as well as appearing underground).
Since I am not 100% certain it’s the same bug (or that it’s not several different bugs) I have made a new topic instead of replying to that one.
Mods please do feel free to merge it if you think it’s the same.
