    The best way to ensure the Eternal Guardian does not disappear(unless defeated in combat) is to have the ultimate equipped on both bars.

    the same can be said for some sorcerer skills such as summoning twilight matriarchs, volatile familiars, etc.
    If you see me anywhere. Know that I am sitting back with a bag of popcorn, watching as ESO burns the goodwill of its player base with practices that only disrespects the players time like it did to me and many others...

    If a game does not respect your time, best thing to do is move on from it and find something else.

    You need it on both bars, otherwise whenever you weapon swap your gear will disappear and you'll have to recast it.

    Obviously you need Eternal Guardian on both bars. If you’re talking about why your bear is ignoring the morph effect..... well it’s a bug. A bug that ZOS has ignored since Warden launched (almost a year ago?) and still causes issues.

    Basically when the bear dies, instead of respawning, it’ll force you into that long cast time animation you normally do to spawn your Eternal Guardian. If you cancel it, your bear won’t spawn. The morph effect is supposed to respawn your bear *without* having you cast it.

    There is also apparently a bug where even with the Eternal Guardian after going through the animation he does not actually spawn.

    Even with Eternal Guardian, you still have to recast him, it just happens automatically. So along with the bug I stated above, you can also cancel out of the recast which of course stops it. I personally have not experanced said bug, but I have had enough conversations about all the other reasons it could have stopped, to believe people when they say they have the bug.
    The Eternal Guardian does need to be on both bars, otherwise he will despawn when you bar swap, and he will not auto respawn if despawned in that method. Just the same as if you cancel Eternal Guardian effect while in you Character Sheet he also will not auto respawn

    @vaoh Whether the recast animation is intended or not. The bug is actually that even after the animation, while also not doing anything to have cancelled it, he still will not respawn. From what I gather, people who do have the bug always have to double cast, one auto, one manual. Personally I have never experienced an issue that wasn't my own animation cancelling though.

    Another thing:

    Is it normal that the bear respawns where he died and not next to the Warden? It is super annoying to have these immortal bears in PvP that chase you over the whole map. Last time I kicked the bear into the insta-death AoE where he died just to respawn 2sec later exactly where I knocked him away. His Warden master wasn't seen anywhere.

    All I know is that it’s a mess being in a boss fight and then all of a sudden my character stands still, unable to cast anything. At least half the time the visual animation fails to play on the bugged recast.... especially in more laggy fights like when fighting Rakkhat. Also if you are resurrecting an ally when this bug occurs, the resurrection reticle stays permanently on your screen until you reloadui.

    Would be cool to not have to over 1 year for a fix. This was reported both before and after Morrowind’s official launch.

    Why does it have to be slotted on both. Pets should allow bar swapping.

    While i dont entirely agree with the balance of pet potency themselves, the idea from a design standpoint is that you are trading an ability slot for a more permament extension to your character that generally speaking is a bit more bang for buck in the ability budget department ie most pets while having a respectable base attack, also have active abilities which ends up being a bit more generous than a single ability you would put in that spot instead.

    I think it should be a 'feature" of the skill for the bear to respawn automagically when you swap back to the bear bar.

    "Why isn't my Bear Respawning?"

    He could be busy looking for honey
    He hates your opponent
    You said something to hurt his feelings
    Found a female bear and decided to start a family that eventually has a young girl burgle
    Tigger stopped by for hijinks
    You didn't double slot him
    He got lost
    Was killed and eventually replaced by a remorseful hunter
    Had to chase Ben Afleck and Anthony Hopkins
    Was involved with a horrible rumor involving Leonardo DiCaprio
    Had half his face burnt in an accident and had to mercilessly chase campers picking them off one by one
    You have the other morph selected
    Faced an Ancient in a 1v1 and lost
    Hanging out with some guy named Adams

    So many possibilities!
