As title says, mobs that use “kick” as one of their melee abilities make grenade or flamethrower kits (haven’t tried other kits) disappear, resulting in the weapon toolbar (pistol + shield in my case) reappearing. I previously made a topic about this in the Engineer sub-forum, cause I didn’t know whether this is a bug or a result of my build:

Ok, just started playing with this again and I noticed a pattern. I’ve found this weird behaviour while killing Jotun in the southeastern part of Wayfearer Foothills, for the slayer achievement. And now I tried to reproduce it to see what exactly happens. Here’s the funny thing: only the Jotun without weapons equipped make my kits disappear. Selecting these mobs shows that they “kick and punch”. And sure enough: the kits get un-equipped when they kick! I manage to time a screenshot where you can see this happen. I took it in the middle of a kick, you can see the weapon toolbar appear at the bottom. Skill 8 is grenade kit, is on cooldown after being equipped a couple of seconds previously. I guess I’m gonna file a bug report for this as well, as I can’t imagine this is how it should be. Still curious if anyone is willing to try reproduce this!
