Shadowblade prevents TR

[EdsanDarkbane]

Hey guys, just wondering if any of you have experienced this. I am really bummed I haven't been able to TR due to having an active shadow blade spell inside of my reincarnation Cache. Has anyone else run into this?

I have two lives left before I unlock the class completionist feat!

Can you move from cache to bank or is that still bugged?

[AustrianDeathMachine]

The old fix was move it to character bank and then to inventory. With the bank changes IDK if this will work anymore.

As of now I am still unable to remove it from the cache. It won't drag anywhere not the bank or my inventory
I am really really bumming so close to finishing class tr :/

I feel your pain. I am in the same boat and submitted ticket to wait a week to be told it is now a individual bug issue with no idea when or if it will be fixed.

I doubt my problem is related since it was not a shadowblade in the TR cache (and I could not even see the item in the TR cache), but just in case...

I had a problem clearing out my TR cache after the bank changes. I could not get the last item out to enable a TR. My other banks were both full but once I created space in my character bank (even though I needed to move it into inventory) I was able to see and move the item into my inventory and clear my TR cache. Perhaps it is worth checking since who knows how their spaghetti is strung together....

Well, after reading your post Vrax, i decided to log in and mess around with it more, and I made it worse. I conjured a new shadowblade on my character and was able to add it to his Kundarak bank, but I cant pull the sword out of the bank, I get the same error messsage as I get when I attempt to move it from the TR Cache.

I am sorry to hear that was the response, I hope there is a way they can look at the account and just delete the old blades?

This is probably going to be a common problem, since they are centered and have CHA to hit and damage automatically, with people running Sacred Fist.

Ahpook, thanks for the information. I did try to free up character bank space during my last few tries to remove the shadowblade.
I ended casting a new shadowblade spell and getting that new shadowblade stuck in my character bank and now can't get that one out of the character bank.

On a side note does anyone know if the new purchased character bank space will remain through a TR.
I really want to finish and get the completionist feat.

Thanks for your help I appreciate it.

You are essentially proving that this is a bug with the new bank interfaces that would effect all players, by getting another one stuck in your per-character bank. I would test it on a Vet II character to confirm, but do not have the Feydark tree unlocked account wide. Just via Feywild favor on my main character. If someone had Feydark account wide they could summon one on a test character, bank it, and confirm.

I'm a confused about this issue you're having. Conjured Shadowblades are supposed to be temporary items and should disappear when you unequip them, like Flameblades. They shouldn't be able to go in your bank. I'm guessing the bug that allows this behavior creates another bug in regards to their being stuck in bank.

Purchased inventory/bank slots are supposed to be permanent and last through TR.

I think that people are using Shadowblades up to 20, then NOT unequipping them, and TR'ing right away most likely. So even if they are not supposed to go into the bank, they are getting there via the TR cache process, taking what you have on you, and in your personal bank and putting it in cache.

I tested it with flame blade on a druid alt I don't play anymore. Flame blades (and shadow blades as posted earlier) can be moved from your equipped slot directly to your bank without dissipating. You can't take them out though so I've lost one bank slot until it's fixed. Also, I do believe the bank update caused a bug where you can't move items from your cache to bank and have to move things to your inventory first and thus the original poster's issue with not being able to clear their cache to TR again since the only way to remove Shadowblades and Flameblades from the cache is to move it into the bank first.

Just speculation here, but I would want to look over the changelogs for anything pertaining to preventing someone from taking a fully scaled up shadowblade out of cache / bank and annihilating many kobolds in harbor. If that is in there, yeah, that has to go, unless you like handling these type of issues ad infinitum.

Have a look at conjured arrow mechanics for something that is TR cache compatible, and would not just let you keep using them for very long (dissipate on login).

As of now the big is confirmed. Summoned shadowblade when placed in character bank or if they are in TR bank are unable to moved out of either storage space. This causes the player to lose character bank space and can prevent clearing the TR cache.

If anyone else runs into this issue feel free to add it here.

My support ticket is considered solved and was forwarded to quality assurance.

Hopefully this thread humbly gets the attention of someone who can help.

They are aware of it, as confirmed here, and it sounds like they are working on a fix.


The issue with Shadow Blades preventing True Reincarnation will be corrected in the near future.

So if you have shadow blade from summon. what should you do with them before you TR? Just destroy them? or let them expire in your hands , then TR?

Moving them into your inventory should get rid of them. The issue is caused by either having them equipped while TRing, which moves them into the TR cache with all your other stuff, or by moving them into your bank, which doesn't seem to trigger the destruction of the item as it should, causing the same issue as the TR cache bug.

Can just drag to your inventory and they will disappear. Just don't drag it to your bank. Or just log out. They disappear from your hands after a few minutes of being logged out.
