Show helm / show cloak is bugged for some odd reason

Hello all,

So in SOD I would like to remove my helm and back from showing, normally I do this through Options → interface and untick the Show helm / Show cloak.

But when phasing into another zone, relogging and other stuff my character seems to show cloak and helmet again.

But in the interface settings it remains unticked.

I have tried to reinstall the game, remove addons.
Resetting cvars and stop synchronizing from config and settings without any luck.
Even tried to install the game on a other PC without luck.

This issue only persists on 1 out of 6 character.
So must be a bug.

Do you have any advice on what to do?

Report it as a bug ingame. That’s all you can do.

already done that, just wanted to ask here if anyone else had witness the same.

But thanks for the advice! :slight_smile:

I have the same issue. did you find a solution?

Hi there,

We have seen other reports of this and recently identified an issue where this setting isn’t always respected.

No workaround for now I’m afraid, but hopefully the underlying bug can be addressed shortly.

At least we know Blizzard notice this issue. Ty for the Answer.

I understand that the problem will be fixed, most likely at the release of the third phase of the game?

Although this is always subject to change, this issue should be fixed in the next patch (1.15.2).

Hello Yryadorne. Patch 1.15.2 has been released. But the problem with the hat and cloak has not been resolved … (

Looks like this had to be pushed to the next patch. We don’t have much more information than that, but it’s still on the radar. :pray:

It turns out interesting) You are aware of the problem, but no one does anything). Despite the fact that this problem has existed since the first phase of the game.

Will it ever be fixed? if not just say it so i can delete my character and create a new one ( or is it possible to get a race change from human to human or human to something else). over 4 months is a verry long time for a bug.

Apparently no one is going to fix anything. They feed them empty promises

Still not fixed! I wonder how much longer it would take to resolve the issue. It has been months now since I got this problem!

I’m enjoying the same bug, but my “temp”…““fix””

is baking these 2 lines in to a macro (any macro works, but convenient to have it on say a self buff macro)

/run ShowHelm(false)
/run ShowCloak(false)

that way i dont have to toggle the options through the menu every time i log in/reload/zone phase or w/e

you could also probably bake the same lines in to a Weakaura that just force loads them when you login/phase/reload etc, essentially doing the job that the settings should be doing, but aren’t.

Yes, you guessed it, this is still not fixed.

i actually think they may of fixed it right on the last reset

at least mine started working without needing the fix i previously gave
