When the “Swoop” skill (Ranger Greatsword #3) is interrupted, sometimes the translucent eagle that carries the character to the target remains stuck to the character’s shoulders after the skill is interrupted. The only ways to get rid of the eagle that I have discovered thus far are to go to a different map or log out and back in again (teleporting to a WP on the same map, dying or weapon swapping does not work).
My ranger is a male Sylvari, if that helps.
