Missing Miniature Moa Bird

I have to check on mine now...

Nope, still there. I had a theory if it was gone....and still might.

Do you have Nightfall?

NOT saying this is what happened but if it was a duped Moa
and Aanet ran there trace program "boom" no more mini moa.
just a thought about duping from reading other recent threads around here.

Didn't that duping thing happen well before the moa was available?

details.. details..

Yes.

Check your mules.

You could have put another item over it, and then it swapped into the inventory of your mule.

This often happens to Urgoz Flatbow, and the Moa is a bit dark and if your monitor is dark, too, and you do not look properly this might have happened.

You put the Moa Bird in your storage? Man... You are so cruel to animals. Probably ran off when it had the chance. /endjoke

Check your other characters.

As i said before these are recent threads saying the Duping is still going on.
Game and Dev tracker sub thread has a new one Gaile is looking into apparently.
I will reiterate I am NOT saying this happened in this case
you prolly just misplaced it somewhere.

you win, that made me rofl,

Salvage = 20 feathers, 12 bones and 1 monsterous claw +1 consumable chicken wing

if you are 100% sure you haven't deleted it, I think the most likely explanation is that someone got access to your account and stole it. I'd change your password if I were you.

Do you have any preorder items?

I'm asking because I have the pre-order factions/nightfall/EotN/1mln upgrade. That gives me 13-14 weapons in the inventory when I type /bonus. I caught myself deleting normal drops because I was busy deleting all the bopnus items. Maybe that happened (although the green text would probably have stopped me).

I think if someone got access to the account they would take something more valuable than the moa.

It may be the texture for the icon got messed up and is not loading properly. Try running your mouse over every inventory slot in your storage and on your characters. If the icon did not show up and you moved something from a character to storage into the slot where the "invisible" chick was it would switch it to your toon without you realizing it.

Something similar happened when I first got the chick. I was in FS and the incubator disappeared but no chick showed up. I thought there had been a glitch and I had wasted all my work. A day or so later, there it was in my pack. The icon had simply not downloaded when it was supposed to and so it had not shown up even though it was really there.

that happend with a necrid horseman a while ago..

I checked mine....yep still there....will check my mini-mule and see if all of the other minis are still there (though if they do go awol I wont cry since they are all whites).

if u ever find me ill give you mine

Using a hammer on a poor birdy ?! SHAME ON YOU!

It's happened to my black bandanna. It's almost impossible to see in the inventory and found it on a mule character.

Have you ever tossed a bulk number of items in the trash or dropped in an explorable area? I accidently trashed a bow along with a bunch of /bonus weapons by doing that.

You might simply be overlooking it.. I know I have had black armor pieces "disappear" and appear sundenly when I would be selling stuff to merchant.

IM guessing its lost or misplaced, stop saying he was hacked lol, im sure they'd take something better then a single minipet...

I had a perfect fiery dragon sword disappear on my original monk, maybe a year and a half ago. I think I even inquired about it, but I got the same old stuff of "We can't do anything about lost items in scams, etc." Except it vanished off my character, and I had placed it behind my kits so I wouldn't sell it. The sword was the first I ever had drop of that type and it came from a wurm in Lornar's Pass so it was highly notable to me. I gave it up as a loss. But it disappeared for no reason, and was replaced by some worthless rune (or something). My biggest concern at the time was that GW was being hacked - but no one cared about it except me.

edit: Not sure it was a rune, may have been some other prefix or suffix. It was a year and a half or so ago.
