Every time I load into new area most of my weapons disappear from my inventory. I am currently on the quest "Wicked Eyes and Wicked Hearts" and just zoned into the area to confront Grand Duchess Florianne only to find that all my weapons have completely vanished from my inventory. I now have no weapons and armor to equip my main character and followers, which is making the battle seemingly impossible. I have noticed the weapons and armor disappearing from my inventory for some time now but it never effected my equipped items. Well, the quest automatically unequips all weapons and armor and thus when I zoned into the area they naturally disappeared...awesome!Anyone else experienced a loss of weapons and armor? Any known fixes to this issue? TY in advance for any help.

Holy *. I may have just figured some of this stuff out. I had armour I've been trying to equip any of my warriors with in the Undercroft but simply couldn't. I'd see it in my inventory list ONLY when I was depositing it in the stash chest. I could put upgrades into it but I couldn't equip anyone in it. I'd deposit it and take it out, over and over but I could never equip it OR even sell it for that matter.By a little stroke of luck, I looked in "valuables" and there it was. I never moved it there, but it was there. Somehow items get magically moved to the valuables tab. I'm not sure if this answers any or even some, but if your weapons / armour are disappearing on you like mine were, check your valuables tab and restore it back to the inventory tab. You'll be able to use the item again. Maaaaan, how long did I sit here trying to find a post for some help this. Thx for all the posts. Sometimes reading a few things helps you think outside the box a bit and you end up figuring stuff out.

My girlfriend is playing dragon age inquisition and she just went to equip an amulet and we both watched it straight up disappear.. This is clearly a massive bug and needs to be addressed.. She hadn't saved in a while and it definitely is hurting the game experience.

I just crafted my first armor at the blacksmith and it said I acquired the item, but when open my inventory it's nowhere to be found?

Same problem and I found no solution it's another Dragon Age bug that you're forced to live with I suppose. What I basically had going on for the Grand Duchess fight was a fully red health bar on all my party members no health potions I'm stuck in a Nut Cracker uniform with like 10 Defense and on all top of all this the game bugs and resets everyone's weapons into these tier 1 defaults so like Sera is maxed out with an archer skill tree but now she has tier 1 iron daggers and can't use any abilities for any reason. I love Dragon Age but at the same time, someone was in charge at double checking something to make sure you wouldn't deal with this much ignorant frustration during a boss fight, let's fire that guy and beat up his family.

Knowing that other people are experiencing this problem brings hope that it may one day get fixed. After 65 hours of gameplay my journey suddenly and sadly appears at an end and the thought of starting over is nearly impossible. I have not played the game since my numerous failed attempts to fight the Duchess, equipped with nothing but virtual underwear, two weeks ago.

I thought perhaps I had sold Cassandra's shield by accident, but after not being anywhere near a merchant when she suddenly lost her sword, I realised it must be a bug. It had happened in a previous save too to Sera, now that I think about it. It was just after I got her though, so at the time I thought perhaps she hadn't come with any equipment and I'd just imagined her being kitted out.
Kind of a horrifying bug. I hope it gets fixed soon!

My boyfriend was fighting demons in the fallow mire when suddenly the staff he'd had equipped wasn't in his inventory anymore. He checked his inventory and there were three staffs, all less powerful than what he'd been using. When he backed out and checked his inventory again there were only two staffs.

I too have this problem. The first time it happened, a bunch of custom weapons disappeared. Later on after quite a few hours, they reappeared. Then i found the First Enchanter staff schematic and made a couple for my mages. They are all gone. My inventory is 13/60. I'm not selling them or moving to valubles. Now they have disappeared, and everything else i pick up, regardless what it is, disappears except for my equip weapons and armor. If they go, then i'll really be pissed.

During "Wicked Eyes and Wicked Hearts" the armor of my whole party has vanished, it's nowhere to be found and the save point before that quest is corrupted.
My party wore those unique and high rated armor parts. At the end the helmets were back, but the body armor is gone.
The worst part is, that it took ages, to find something good for my Qunari mage character. I think he wore the armor that the Highland Ravager dropped (I can't remember where I got it from), complete with the parts for arms and legs, it was over 300.

Same thing here, everything was fine before the 'Wicked Eyes and Wicked Hearts' mission. I somehow kept all of my main characters belongings, but all my other party members lost everything except accessories. One-time items, crafted, all gone. I don't have any save points before that mission either..
Additionally (and much worse, since at least I have the means to make new weapons/armor), not only was I not able to keep anything that I collected on that mission, but my inventory still thinks all the items are in there. I went in with 25(ish)/75 items in my inventory, filled it while I was at the party, came out to find only 25(ish)/75 items in my inventory and NOW, I can't collect any more items. So I have to work with 25 inventory spaces, which is basically impossible. Or at least, completely diminishes my playing experience. After putting so many hours into this, it is so disappointing that I may not be able to finish at all.

Update: Trying to reload previous saves (all in the Winter Palace) in the hope that whatever bugged it before will somehow bug differently this time and let me keep my inventory space. Well, it sure is bugging differently..
1st attempt - I've lost more items than I did the first time.
2nd attempt - Those items have returned but when I go to 'Find the Harlequin', I get to the checkpoint and there is no Harlequin, only Venatori.
3rd attempt - Game freezes mid cut scene. I quit via the Xbox main menu.
4th attempt - Well the game won't load at all, after the menu screen it goes to black and stays that way, playing the menu music over and over.
5th attempt - I find the Harlequin, kill them, nothing happens. Mission objective doesn't change.
So... that went well.. I guess this is what people mean when they talk about 'corrupt saves'.
Tried reloading an autosave from after I arrived back at Skyhold for the sake of trying. Every time I attempt to buy things from the shop I get a little ka-ching (successful purchase sound), but my money and inventory slots stay the same. That's that I guess.
