Items disappearing?

[Force-Attuned Krogoth]

I recently had a weapon vanish into the ether when I attempted to equip it. When talking with other people, it seems this is rare, but not unique. When it happened to me, I was in a place with no people and no looters. The only monster on-screen died 30 seconds afterwards. The ground was empty. When I tried walking away and back to try to reload any lost packets, it still didn't show.

If any of this has happened to you, I request that you speak up in this thread. I think we need to know how widespread this problem is.
