Visual Effects by IA Styles disappear with bar-swap

ExoY · August 23

I finally got the 5th body style page for the arcanist IA style (Reawakend Hierophant) and was looking forward to add the green visual effect to my arcanist.

Sadly, there is a bug where the visual effect disappers after bar swap. The only way I was able to reapply it was to visit the outfit station again.

@ZOS_Kevin , is this already a known issue?

I included a short clip, where I showcase the problem: https://youtu.be/_yxVgg5OJDo
For reference: i play on PC/EU, my Account name is @ExoY94 and the character is: Quaesitor Scientia

I finally figured out the reason.

If the option "hide helmet" is selected, the helmet does not count towards the 5 style pieces.

I dont know though, if that behavior is intended?!

This has always been the case in my experience, it appears that the visual effects actually come from a "hidden" 5-piece bonus that must be active. Wearing Ayleid King also kills glows with the actual sets too.

If you hide the helm it does not count towards this hidden visual-only 5 piece.

For the style pages this is the same as the actual sets. The other IA set for each class has a different effect but you can have both active (looks great on Arcs IMO).
