Excavation bonus loot bug

I’ve had three occasions where I excavate bonus loot that isn’t registered by the game as having been excavated.

Example screenshot:

Two bonus items discovered, only one considered loot when I finished the excavation.

I have only excavated Deadlands antiquities since the patch so I do not know if this also applies to other zones.

    I just dug up a purple in Blackwood for the endeavor. I got the bonus loot.

    Is it possible you got 2 of the hearts?

    Nope, only got one. And had another occurance where I excavated one bonus item and the recap said “no bonus loot recovered”.

    It has not happened every time, but out of six gold excavations it happened three times.

    This has happened to me as well on several occasions. I have reported it in-game.

    If you look carefully, you can see that 3 bonus items are uncovered; but only 2 bonus loots are given.

    While many times I do not see the loot being shown after the dig is finished, it still turns up in my inventory so I doubt anything is being lost with this bug, it is just not reporting what loot we got correctly.

    I hope that they just try to repair Ancient Styles leads :D

    This has happened to me only in Deadlands so far. Other zones seem ok.

    Works as intended in all the other zones.

    If you want lots of 3 Bonuses, just farm the Green and Blue Leads in the other zones til they fix Deadlands
    Enjoy the game, life is what you really want to be worried about.

    UI issue, then?

    Same, and it's still happening.

    I'll check that next time, thanks.

    Checked and it doesn’t seem to just be a visual bug. Dug up two bonus loot items, only got one in my inventory.

    Still only happening with Deadlands excavations.

    +1. One bonus loot item appeared uncovered during the dig, but "no bonus loot items recovered" message.

    Note: this was on only one of about10 recent excavations. PC/NA

    I finally remembered to check this on my last dig in the Deadlands and the same thing happened to me, got 2 bonus items uncovered but only 1 shown on screen in text.

    Forgot to check inventory but I believe I only had one of those “treasures” to sell to the NPC. I will have to pay more close attention next time.

    I think it might happen when one of the treasures is a crafting item and then it doesn’t show up on the summary but it does get added to your craft bag.

    So it’s not just a thing in The Deadlands anymore, they copy pasted this bug into High Isle. Well done, ZOS…

    Yep, experienced this as well. Bonus loot is very often not registered properly in High Isle.

    Same, I've reported it 3 times in the past week, seems to be High Isle only. Frustrating.

    Has happened to me several times, have bug reported it at least once, with screencap. Annoying!

    It just happened to me the other day, too, in High Isle. (Happened even in the past a year ago or so, but then I stopped caring about antiquities.) I dug up 3 bonus loots as seen in the screenshot, but only received two.

    Has this ever been addressed? It has been a bug for pretty long.

    Edit: I play on PC EU.
