Guild Wars 2

I am not sure when this bug started, but I have noticed it for at least the past 2 weeks, I was waiting to see if an update would fix, but no go, so here I am reporting.

When using the Molten Alliance Pick (I bought it back when first released) the pick itself is invisible. My character still goes through the animations, and the molten lava still appears, but the pick itself is gone. All of my other gathering tools work fine (aetherblade axe and consortium sickle) but the molten pick is not showing.

Thanks.

I’m glad this was just posted recently, the forum search function failed to find it on the first page. Boggles the mind. :p

Anyway, I’m glad to see I’m not alone. I first noticed my invisible pick after receiving the Halloween update a couple of days ago. This may have been after I swapped out my gathering tools (classic/original set) to an alt and back the other day. I too now have the invisible pick with effects. I did see it appear briefly once and vanish again during a swing.

Confirmed… the pick is now invisible. Please get right on this after you fix the human female idle animations. Thank you.

Happening to me too. Glad I wasn’t the only one.. been happening since first patch I think.

Confirmed. Here some screens.

Thanks for posting. I noticed this bug too.
The Molten Alliance Pick, when I use it, is invisible during the animation. It started this week on 10/21/14 with the update, if I’m not mistaken.

Ok, this is odd. I was playing with my camera angle, zoomed in too close to my character (asura) and a bit under chin level while mining and seen a shadowy pick appearance above his head from underneath.

Now I’m seeing my pick again (can we see other player’s picks?). Come to think of it, I think it originally disappeared when I was rotating my camera while mining.

Edit: Ok…now it’s appearing and disappearing again. As I rotate my camera.

Edit 2: The pick appears when viewed against/with the lava animation at extreme close range. Be the node.

Edit 3: Ok, what seems to be the most consistent behavior. When I rotate my camera to get my view to pass a bit inside my character’s mesh (being the node) while he’s mining with the pick in hand, I can get the pick to appear. When starting a new mining sequence (rich node), the pick is gone again unless I repeat the process of view rotation.

Bump for invisible ax fix..

Invisible pick here as well.

Fixed as of 10/28 update! Thanks!
