Invisible/uninteractable party members

I’ve heard of this bug once before in DF happening in m+ as well and I’d just like to report that it’s still occurring because it seems fairly rare and I haven’t seen it acknowledged.

When entering a timewalking dungeon only the hunter was visible for me. The tank and 2 other dps were invisible and uninteractable, with their party frames dimmed as if they were out of range. Their arrow on the map showed them being far off screen. The only way to track where they were was by the paladins consecration and praying my AOE heals were still hitting as party frames didn’t update for the affected members. Doing a /reload and even a relog does not resolve the issue for the affected people.

In my case it appeared as though I was the only member who couldn’t see the others, while in similar cases I’ve heard it was one person disappearing for the other 4. At this time I am unaware of what can be done to recreate the bug as it seems exceedingly rare, although persistent for some time now. Hope the devs can find a fix soon as it’s fairly game breaking when it does happen :slight_smile:

What dungeon?

this was in stratholm, when I heard of it happening once before it was to a group doing a key in brackenhide hollow in I believe season 4.

Happened to me in a BGB

This just happened to me in Timewalking ZF. Can’t see my party members, no chat.

Tried healing 2 different TW dungeons and in both I could only see Hunters/Warlocks. I couldn’t see or heal the tank or other DPS. Ended up kicked from one and had to leave the other.

I tried disabling addons, reloading, logging in/out. It’s like they were in another instance… but not as their damage would show up but they weren’t there and I couldn’t target them.

This has been happening a lot to my friend and I lately.

We can be right next to each other, and marker might tell me he’s on the other side of the map. It’s not just a phasing issue like the game is already known for.

This also happened to me in LFR earlier today. I could only see half the raid members. They were definitely there, the enemies could see them. I couldn’t even target them through the raid UI.

Bizarre…

can confirm this is happening to me too.

Can only seem to see Hunters and warlocks alongside your original party members, this is happening in regular LFR too

This is happening to me too. Every single raid or dungeon I enter. I can’t see group members or chat.

Ive removed all addons, cleared my WTF folders and cache etc. Still happening.

This seems to be happening in all TW dungeons at least now. If it is your heals, you are on your own.

You can have the invisible people take out non-combat pets and put marks on them so that you can stay together and you can see each other’s pings on the map. No resetting or reloading, or rebooting fixes this.

Just another busted straw on the haystack of this broken game.

This started happening to me tonight about 4 hours ago in every dungeon. Any idea of when it will be fixed?

This started happening for me tonight. Once in Dire Maul and once in Stratholme, both timewalking. It was fine before. I could see the two warlocks in the first group, but not tank or healer. In the second group, I couldn’t see any of the other four players. I did start the Argent Dawn EPL questlines, so I’m wondering if that has something to do with it?

The other players could see me, I just couldn’t see them or their map dots. I tracked their paths by their spell effects, which were the only visible effects of theirs.

First time I’ve experienced a bug like this in the whole of World of Warcraft’s history. This is from the character Taelan, on Argent Dawn EU-Region (Me).

There seem to be a bug in the game where group members may disappear from another’s screen - sometimes they reappear too. Only just happened today, what are you doing over there? Left side player sees all, right side sees some.

Dungeons in question:
Dire Maul, and Stratholme Service entrance.

Unable to see some players. Unable to use abilities on them. Can see their emotes and /s but not them fighting, and the UI frame does not update with their health status. On the wife’s bar on the other hand, she could see them all but noticed they were taking A LOT of damage than they should - scaling/phasing combined bug, as it seems me tanking one mob does NOT protect the team I cannot see.

Sadly, I do not seem to have forum rank high enough on the US forums to actually embed the link or post it, so, here is the raw image link instead: https://pbs.twimg.com/media/GbXvuQtWcAAyyZz?format=jpg&name=medium

Is this due to developers working on cross-faction premade dungeon queues?

For I could see my wife’s character (as we were queued together), but unable to see most of the others. Tried running another TW dungeon, alone this time, was Dire Maul capitol gardens, couldn’t see anyone at all this time.

Happened to me in BG Blitz and LFR BRD today.

Did a final solo queue test. Dire Maul again, inconsistent, I know but it is the only thing that popped for me in the queue. Could see one DPS from my own server, couldn’t see the healer from my own server, or the two other DPS.

Seems to be per char as well… have one char that see’s people, one that doesnt

I’ve had this happen twice now on two different toons both in LFR BRD, each one was a healer and I could only see 1-2 other people and could not heal anyone else. I disabled my addons and it happened again. Was happening to others in the raid too.

It started with me yesterday in timewalking dungeons, happened in every timewalking dungeon after it started. I think first was Stratholme. I logged out for the night and started doing normal TWW dungeons today and it began OK, did like three with no issue. I got into a Cinderbrew Meadery group, which I could only see one other player. This really stinks because not getting heals or can’t be resurrected really stinks as DPS. :frowning:
