Inventory? Disappearing items?

[Shadowfoil]

I keep having an issue where items I've just picked up in inventory disappear. No, they aren't on another character... they are just gone. Additionally, I sent an item from one character to another (via right click on item from inventory), and the item just evaporated. Anyone else experiencing? Just now I removed a head item while at a vendor and it disappeared as well. Anyone else experiencing this?

yah I have noticed this sometimes as well, normally when I sort it seems to fix it. But I do have an empty spot in my inventory. if I sort by weight its the second heaviest thing in my inventory next to my pile of gold. Its like something heavy in my bag that I can't seem to remove but now when I pick up things I get encumbered quickly.

Have had rings and amulets go missing when moving to other characters.

Most of the items that go missing for me are things that I throw and then I can't find them on or around the dead bad guy.

However, I did recently complete the mushroom quest for Blurd's friend at the tower and then had to go right back because the 'shrooms weren't in my inventory for some reason.

search for it by name or sort inventory by latest, some times it doesn't update the UI other times it goes into a random 'hole' where a consumable used to be

The book with the amethyst(keeping it vague) just disappeared from my inventory, but I still have the gem. Sometimes things I drop on the ground can't be picked up again either. I'm vexed as to what to do.

Killed Kagha, noticed an interesting amulet on her body, looted all, can't find amulet in any character's inventory.

I have a save with Kagha's body, no matter what I do I can't get the amulet in my inventory. A message appears, saying it was added to inventory, but it's not there. There seem to be other items that disappeared too, they just weren't interesting enough to track them. Sorting the inventory doesn't work either. I tried sending the amulet to camp instead, and it's not there either.

I have two quest items disappear when I used "send to camp" and now I cannot finish quest Kill Mystic

FYI when items straight up disappear from inventory, I found out that you can re-position another item in that character's inventory and the disappeared item will show up properly.
So just drag and drop any other item to any space in inventory and it should show up. I think re-sorting the inventory also does it.
This leads me to believe it's a display issue, not an issue where the item actually disappears.
There is also a search bar where you can type the item's name and it should show up there. You can press TAB and use the upper-left search box to search in all party members' inventories.

I've never had an item *actually* disappear from my inventory, and I'm a loot hoarder, I tend to hang on to every note and interesting bits and baubles. I've encountered the UI bug which I describe above, but they always show up after I move some other stuff around.

I am actively having this issue with the spear you get from the owlbear. I had a shaft from... Somewhere? Not the one you find in the Owlbear's den, and I tried to combine it with the spear head, it didn't work because it was the wrong shaft I suppose, and then I backed out of the combine menu, and now both parts are just... Gone.

You get the shaft from the "True Soul" guy that is dying, just north of the Grove entrance, who is together with the 2 NPCs who attack you if you tell them you're from the nautiloid. He was killed by the owlbear, which is why the owlbear has the other half
If both parts are gone, then maybe the combo worked and you just couldn't find the item? Use the search bar to be sure.
In any case, I had something similar happen with a different combined item. It turned out that I simply didn't see it in inventory, as it was arranged in a different order. Sometimes when you combine items, it triggers the bug discussed about in this thread.
Have you tried shuffling items around in inventory like I suggested above and checking if it appears?
If it's any consolation, you're not missing out on much that spear is kinda crap .

This has happened through every one of my games at some time or other. What is strange is that sometimes a missing item will return. Nothing to important has been lost yet but I'm sure it will happen.
I now store all important stuff in it's own bag and that seems to have stopped any of that going missing. it's more likely to happen to lose items in you inventory.

If my memory serves me right I'm sure stuff use to go missing in DOS 2 as well.
This is what I suspected might be happening.
You transfer or drop something in your inventory and there is sometimes this delay were it won't show up in that inventory, then you save and shut down the game. The next day that item has gone.

I lost the Blood of Lathander, I swapped it out on shadowheart when she got Shar's Spear. 3 hours later I tried to re-equip it, only to find it disappeared. I'm either going to have to replay 3 hours of gameplay, or accept that I've lost a Legendary weapon for good...

I've just had this happen with Kagha's amulet. It has literally vanished from existence, and it does not seem to be a display issue either. I've checked every possible bag, every companion inventory, camp chest etc.

it just... poofed.

I wanted to go for some sneaking in act 3 and moved some stealth-related items to a char with high dex, and after that a ring disappeared. Can't recall it happening before. Luckily I noticed it almost immediately.

I guess I'll use the tab menu to see the inventory of each character next to each other before moving items around from on. That I can easily verify the items arrived at their destination.

I have had this issue repeatedly... and it's been helmet, cape, armor, and jewelry every time. The first times I didn't even reload, as they were after boss fights and I decided I didn't want to run them again, but now, they disappear on Shadowheart during an encounter in Act 3, which I believe is near the end (haven't finished yet) and even if I redo the encounter they still disappear. It's kind of game-breaking cause I can't fast-travel to get new gear and I'm kind of sure Shadowheart will not survive a BBEG running around in naughty lingerie...
