Invisible Bard

ItchyTheRat · August 2017

yesterday i came across this very same bug, in a different zone, and on a different character, and today i managed to get a recording of it, nobody else seemed to be able to hear it, even if grouped, anyone else found these invisible/buried bards that preform out in the wilderness ?

Hi @ItchyTheRat ,

To link a YouTube video, I believe if you just paste the normal /watch URL itself, the forum will take over and embed the video in your post.

[snip]

Also, we do have a specific forum for posting bugs: [snip] It is likely that this thread will be lost in General ESO Discussion. Less people post in the Bug Reports section, and the moderators know to check that location for bugs. Thanks!

Edit: the thread has been moved and the OP's video is now visible.

@ItchyTheRat You're very welcome. And there is no need to repost, I believe a moderator has already moved your thread here for you! I have not come across this yet, but I will post here if I do.

I can confirm this bug too.
On EU server - in Stonefalls - Davon's Watch beside the stablemaster.
There are two sometimes, when you come out of the town gate left from the fountain in front of Davon's Fine Steeds and right of the fountain beside the small wall.
Also in Vulkhel Guard in Auridon near the Wayshrine.

Yes can confirm this too.

I've heard this too, thus far in Evermore at the bank, in Wayrest near the castle and at the bridge by the bank, and then in Deshaan outside of a delve. Sometimes its there already when I go to the location and sometimes it'll just come out of no where and then fade away.

There's also one in Windhelm by the stables.

the ones i have found was not in any city, the first was in shadowfen, clsoe to percolating Mire wayshrine, and the one in the video, a bit outside of Ebonheart in Stonefalls, at Brothers of Strife i guess I'm gonna see if i can find any invisible bards in cities :P

I got this in the Mournhold bank today. I've heard it in several other locations around Tamriel as well. Relogging my character clears it up. (I must clear it up if it's the guy singing Red Diamonds.) So yes, it still exists since apparently ZOS doesn't care to fix it.

Honestly that really doesn't surprise me. All this time after launch and the Fighters Guild building in Haven still says Abandoned Fighters Guild after completing the quest chain there, even on a brand new character I recently ran through.

I cannot hear anything in the video. I have on a few occasion been in Velhyn Harbor. In these cases I hear a male bard singing near the door of the main hall that has the banker and the normal bard lady singing upstairs at the same time.

One time I had my own personal bard as this same signing bard followed me around singing for about 2 hours no matter where I zoned to. I never saw him , but I heard him clear as day. I could run around anywhere in the zone and the songs followed me. It was kinda cool change of pace even though I know it was a bug.

Grahtwood, behind the Elden Root stablemaster
Malabal Tor, near the Abamath wayshrine
Northern Morrowind gate, at the bounty board

I wander around a lot, and hear a lot of ghostly bards now, but those are the three I've encountered so often I remember right where they are.

I like it.
