Guild Wars 2

See title. This bug was introduced about a year ago, making phantasms bug out severely when using armors with effects on them, but the zodiac armor is by far the worst, the phantasms just look like big misshapen blobs.

See this thread: https://forum-en.gw2archive.eu/forum/professions/mesmer/How-do-you-like-the-Zodiac-Armor/first#post3660024

Maybe this will get it fixed…

“And I was just about to purchase a set for each of my 8 mesmers from the gem store… guess I will hold off on spending that 6400 gems until it gets addressed”

I recommend all other mesmers do the same!!! We will never get our problems addressed unless we force them to be addressed…

This prolblem started ages ago and has yet to be actually addressed

I’ve never filed a ticket regarding the graphical glitch on phantasms until I saw this one.. It’s really horrendous and distracting.

1. Hm. Buy zodiac armor, because it looks amazing, and NEVER use phantasms anymore?
2. Or don’t buy zodiac.

Choice seems obvious :/

Seriously, I wanted to put this in a nice way, but does your team seriously test ANYTHING that they release? You constantly release armor, traits and skills etc that are kitten or broken upon release, than take MONTHS for them to fix it. How about you learn to release content properly instead of shoving it in everyone’s faces like fat kids with cake. Get your kitten together Anet.

LoL’d so kitten that pic..

Seriously though, the bug has existed for a really long time now, when can we expect a fix on this? You keep on adding armors with effects on them and I’m sure people file tickets about how it glitches our phantasms, but something as bad as this is just pushing it. -_-

I agree. This is a need of a dire fix. It’s not only phantasms tho. You also get weird blobs when entering stealth from using Decoy utility skill. The armor itself is amazing, but the fact that Phantasms and you have that visual bug is a major turn-off for anyone playing a mesmer. Not to mention the FPS-break it can cause on some PC’s when stacking in an instance.
