Piggybacking onto this thread to add some testing I did on this.
TL;DR If you put something in the same slot as an “invisible” item, the “invisible” item will be deleted.
I’ve only noticed this happening with Unique or Unique(X) items so far. In this scenario you have two characters with the same Unique item in their inventories. Don’t try this with items that you don’t want to lose.
- Log in on your first character and put the item into your Warbank. Note the slot that it’s in.
- Change to your second character.
- You won’t see the item in the Warbank. The slot it’s in will be completely empty.
- Drop any “dummy” item into that slot.
- Change back to your first character.
- The “dummy” item will be in that slot in the Warbank.
- Switch back to your second character, and remove the “dummy” item from the Warbank.
- Switch back to your first character. That slot will be empty.
Hopefully, this is a known issue, and they’re already working on a fix. In the meantime, be extremely careful about what you deposit into your Warbank.
