Guild Wars 2

For some reason, the Savant Epaulets that my character is wearing is obscured by the Asura Cultural T3 chest piece or so it says from the item description. It’s only when I remove the chest piece from my character, the Savant Epaulets will show up. I’ve tried transmuting said Epaulets to another character, a female asuran Elementalist and the effect still remains. However, I’ve looked up on screenshots and I’ve seen asuran characters wearing both of them and neither of them were obscured. Could it be a glitch or am I doing something wrong here? Thanks for your time.

P.S.: I tried previewing the full T3 asuran cultural set on a male asuran character, and the Epaulets showed up on him.

I’ve actually seen this bug today, when previewing it on my Mesmer. The epaulets only show up when the chestpiece isn’t on.

Is it like in just the preview screen, or do they not show up on the actual character as well?

It seems to only be an issue on female Asura where the epaulets for this armor set are not permitted to be visible, as the male Asura can have the epaulets and chest armor of this cultural set visible at the same time.

This issue has also been mentioned in the “Issues with character art, weapons, or armor” sticky thread by other players, though I am not sure if there is any intention to correct this inconsistency in functionality by the devs.
