  Had something similar happen. Friends were fighting a brute by the water, a friend died on a rock that was on the coast and his death point fell through the rock. We tried to get it with a pick axe but then his death point vanished, taking 40 hours worth of armor, tools and loot with it.

  My Husband had this happen when we were playing. We were in the swamp area setting up a base and being attacked by blobs. We defeated them but my husband was poisoned and died again. I ran around and could not find his tombstone and when he returned through the portal we could not find any of his stuff.

  Same thing also happened to me. I died mid-jump on the shore. No death point so I lost everything.

  Same here, entered the swamp biome, got poisoned by an ooze then a wraith finished me. Went back to the skull mark with no death point . Hours of loot lost.

  I also had a similar situation where I had died on a slope of a hill and once I returned, my stone and loot had been all gone. Incredibly frustrating and demotivating to continue playing once you lose so many hours of progress.

  Similar thing happened to me also. Died while fighting the elder with 2 friends, went back mid fight to try and reclaim my items but died as I was unable to interact with my original tombstone (the prompt was there but pressing "e" didn't do anything). The original tombstone just disappeared and took ~25 hours worth of gear with it. I did see tombstones when I went back to the area after the fight, but I was unable to interact with them, and they would disappear after about 10 seconds. I was not the host, my friend was the host.

  I was in the mountain region when I got attacked by wolves and they killed me, spent 30 minutes getting reequipped just to be able to survive and when I finally fought my way back to it the grave and all of it's items were gone. That was all of my progress that's just gone now. I really want to try to get the stuff back, but there isn't any way to retrieve it.

  Something similar happened to me, was mining silver in a mountain and died, when I went to get my stuff it was gone. I tried to logout before I died to save myself, but I had already died, when I logged back in I couldn't find my gravestone.

• 12 Feb, '21
  Zachary Hall

  Same thing happened to my friend and I, we were in the plains with full iron armor and upgraded almost fully when we lost both our death markers and loot. Hours (or even 2 or 3 days) of work gone. POOF! :(

• 12 Feb, '21
  Brian

  Same, my one friend lost his loot when he just died usually by a goblin, he didn't lose connection or server stopped. He just usually go back to claim his loot and it was all gone.

• 12 Feb, '21
  Daniel

  Same for me. Playing on my friends server, died while building and falling down a few times, and the last time my stone and loot was all gone. What hurt most was that we had just spent a lot buying a belt, which now is gone :/

  I died, in the plains, from a Goblin, I came back to the point of death and the gravestone disappeared

• 12 Feb, '21
  Daniel Alvarez

  Same thing happened to me! We were in the Plains and died inside the town near the spawners. My loot sunk to the ground along with all my blacksmith gear that took me 60 plus hours that i worked for. Please help!

  I've had this happen twice now as well as two times to two other people who play with me. Died to Elder and the tombstone was teleporting around inside of different mobs/entities and the second the tombstone consumed like it gave me items but nothing was given. Have lost many hours of grinding from this.

• 13 Feb, '21
  Nicolas

  It happened to me and a friend. Once in the mountain, once in the plains. No problem with the server, our death marker were on the map, but no tombstone. It is quite demotivating when you have to downgrade from full iron to a few piece of rag and bronze.

• 13 Feb, '21
  uwagahi

  I died and the tombstone didn't pop out of my body as normal. I ran back to the spot and of course nothing was there but i did have the death marker on the map to show my bodys location
  
  I was in a plains biome when i died

• 13 Feb, '21
  Robin

  My brother's gravemarker was lost during our climb into a mountain biome. It was spotted in 3 locations (presumably some glitch) prior to it being lost. Whenever we ping the location of his marker on the map, it shows up far beneath the mountain. We've tried to dig through to get it but hit bedrock that cannot be broken through. This is a very unacceptable bug for a concept such as dropping all your inventory when you die as it completely eliminates our ability to get anything back, even when braving the dangers of the world. This gotta be addressed or at least give us an option to retain inventory upon death in a server setting. This is far to punishing to be left in. Please, even with little upvotes Devs, address this ASAP.

  Stuff bug
  I was going to a crypt, i went in it, at the moment i entered in few mobs as blobs jumped to face I died instantly. When i came back my stuff was visible from the outside of the crypt inside it, but impossible to get it back. When i go inside it's not there, and from outside, jumping and spamming E does not work. We tried everything we could but impossible to get my full iron stuff and potions....

  Mitchell Mason

  So prior to this past patch i had 70+hrs played time with little to no bugs. Now after this patch i have lost my body 3 times and everyone playing on the server gets sporadic desync. Several other people have lost their inventories as well. I just farmed my way back up to iron after loosing all my silver gear just to get my body thanos snapped again. I check for an .fch.old file to rename and the game didnt even make one for my character. Like i dont know what changed and if anyone was losing their inventories before this last patch?

• 13 Feb, '21

  Same - also while fighting the Elder. A very frustrating bug!

• 14 Feb, '21
  Lachlan McMurdo

  This happen to me with wolf armour, and cape and sea serpant shield and ancient bark bow, all in all 70 hours of stuff gone. Really makes me just want to stop playing. This has happened to my friend as well and because of this it did make him stop playing.
  
  !!!! I HAVE VIDEO OF THIS IF NEEDED!!!!!

• 15 Feb, '21
  Rike

  I had a similar problem. I died during building. My tombstone was visible on the mini map and in-game, but I couldn't open it. I quit the game. After restarting, the tombstone was gone incl. all my stuff, though it was still being displayed on the mini map.

  We lost our death spot fighting Bonemass thought we maybe just raged missed it after almost having him dead but we still cannot find the loot anywhere very tilting. First bug I have encountered great game still!

  Just had a bug I died, and no stone to gather my loot back. I had mostly teir 3 bronze stuff

  I think a common thing here is being on the shoreline. I have personally seen this bug happen twice in pretty much the same spot at different times.

• 15 Feb, '21
  Souhegan

  After 120 hours this has happened to me. I could deal with all of the other issues but this is like a game over until/if its ever fixed.
  
  Happened on the border of Plains and Mountain biome.

• 15 Feb, '21
  Bobby

  Happened to my brother, Twice in two different play sessions. Really ruins the game when all your hard work can be destroyed forever in a flash. Hope this one gets fixed ASAP

• 16 Feb, '21
  Allen

  Just lost my body as well... I know most my stuff... but yeah, gone. Shows where my body should be, i'm sure it spawned the thing it probably just fell thru the world or something. Would be nice if you had an admin command to summon all your death stones if you're inside 10m radius or something.
  
  I'd just get over it and spawn new gear, if the spawn command wasn't so opaque. spawn Bronzepickaxe, or is it "Bronze Pickaxe" or ??????

• 16 Feb, '21
  Emilia

  Two of my friends at different times have had their gear disappear. one lost a full copper set to ooze in a crypt. and another lost their full iron set to a deathsquito. They appear to clip on the enemy at the time of death then vanish

• 16 Feb, '21
  Lars Dunemark

  Got hit by the same bug, we where fighting a troll in a Troll cave and hade 2 hp left when I left the cave, right after the I spawn outside the cave my character died, and I could see the runestone thru my friends stream (outside of the cave). After 5 sec the runestone disappeared and I couldn't find it inside or outside of the cave but the death mark was still indicating the location. I hade my character backup yesterday so didn't lose to much progress.

  Deivid Silva

  It happened with two friends of mine in my dedicated server. Both in Mountain envirounment and both dying over a stone. The last The deathpoint was visible, but when I get close it disappeared. My friend died again and I was waiting in the place of the first death. so when he came close, a deathpoint appeared inside my friend, as an "armor". When I pointed the cursor on it, appeared only "Here has" and nothing happend when I pressed E. I killed my friend, and the dethpoint started to fly up slowly. I broken the stone floor and it falled, but still without any action. And only me was able to see the deathpoint. It was so frustranting. Up to 86 hours played... My friend stop playing.

• 17 Feb, '21

  Same, i died in a crypt with ALL my stuff and my grave is not visible on the game - how can i recover my items ? Because i cant play with the risk of losing more hours of play

• 17 Feb, '21
  Blimbablux

  I was playing with my friends and during the fight on Swamp, I have died. However, when I respawned there was no mark for my death place (tomb) and as a result all of my items were deleted.
  Could you please provide me with the instructions how to restore it? Or please suggest any other solutin to this issue.
  Looking forward to your reply.

  Fought with a friend as a joke. Near the winter biome, a bird was dragged over them. He died me too. He took the loot and I didn't. eventually broke and disappeared. -40 hours of play no longer want to play the game.

• 17 Feb, '21
  Dennis

  Happened to me aswell, i crash quite often. Normally thats annoying but ok sisnce i get reset to a character state a couple minutes back. But this time i got reset to a naked death run. So all my stuff is now gone. RIP Wolf Armor Set.

  Just happened to me while exploring with my friend. Deathskito killed me... walked back to my body... got my stuff back just to die again a few step away cause of the same deathskito lol. Then walked back to my body to find... nothing -_-

  Xylona

  We have lost everything too. I run the server on my PC. In the plains while fighting fulings. After one of my deaths where everything was left in my death bag, I died in my attempt to retrieve it. This I have done many times without issue. Then when i made it to my death bag again I was unable to access any inventory. then i died a second time and when I spawned at a nearby bed I came back as a male character, I was originally made female. then the screen flashed and started moving my body around the map. I went from the Plains then Dark Forest, then a fuling camp in the plains then back in the dark forest. then back in a fuling camp. after that I was able to move but forward and backward only, then I took off running in place across the ocean floor. Then my team mate had his death bag disappear from the screen while fighting and trying to retrieve his stuff. at that point while I was running on a grey screen, I shut down the game and rebooted. I woke on a diff island.

  Andrew Gudino

  I got killed in the swamp biome by a slime it was called untitled_blob I got poisoned by 2 of them and was running to my death and when I came back, my tombstone was no where to be found same exact thing happened to my friend right before as well. Just lost everything I spent so much time for, and this also happened last night too. Except I died in my base and I respawned in the base instantly and when I respawned my tombstone was no where to be found again.

• 18 Feb, '21

  after the patch of 0.145.6 which presume to fix the problem of missing tombstone, it happened twice to me and friends. Resulted in loss of many hours of gameplay :(

• 18 Feb, '21

  Happened to me and two of my friends in a period of two days. This is a game crippling bug. I can't and won't play the game anymore until this is fixed. Shame. I really enjoyed this game.

  Obi

  Same thing happened to me, I was fighiting Salmon in top of stone building, the rocks below me were destroyed so I fell to my dead. My friends were able to see my gravestone but I wasn't. We restarted the server and my stuff was gone and no death poin :(

• 18 Feb, '21
  5olid

  Despite the patch that should fix that problem my tombestone disappeard again today. I died close to the water by a Troll and i guess my tombestone sank into the water, cause it was nowhere to be found.
  2nd time i lost all my items, whole armor and all weapons. I will not play any more if you guys are not able to fix this

• 18 Feb, '21

  Was fighting swamp boss tonight with 3 others, I was hosting and when I died my tombstone was gone. It appeared to be stuck to the boss but when he died it was gone. I was unable to see it at all only my teamate was. Actually feels horrible as I had mostly been solo up to this point and I’m not sure how I feel about what now feels like losing the time I spent in game

  Luci

  Got swamp hoarded at my base and they killed me. Went to pick up my grave stone but the pick up button wasn't there. I assume it may be a bug due to the grave being to close to the shrine? Anyways after 20 seconds the gravestone disappeared along with all my items.

• 19 Feb, '21
  VikingBoy123

  I updated the game today and still had the problem. Lost all my stuff twice to this, what a waste of time... Really frustrating and I´m not sure if I want to start all over again

• 20 Feb, '21
  Alex

  Just like all the other comments, I too was fighting in the swamp, with a few mates, when a 2 star archer shot me into the water and died. After going getting back to my tombstone it had vanished. Safe to say it was a long walk back without weapons or armour.
  
  Does it ever respawn or is it just a grind fest to recoup lost items?

• 20 Feb, '21
  Andi

  Same to me. 3times in 2 day i lost my whole inventory by no deathpoint spawning. Very annoying.... Ols fix that faaaast!

• 20 Feb, '21

  Still disappearing tombstone even after patch, died to a wolf today and neither I nor my teammates could see a tombstone anywhere. We even checked the wolf that killed me and dug into the ground at the marked spot on the map.

• 20 Feb, '21

  For anyone experiencing this bug: the game stole your items, so steal them back - it's not cheating, since you didn't lose the items legitimately. Start a local game, press F5 to bring up the console, and type "imacheater". Then google "valheim spawn items list" to find the item names for your lost gear, and spawn them by typing "spawn ItemName" in the console. When you log into your original world, you'll have all the stuff on you. Crisis averted!

  Happened to me multiple times, playing Co-OP and getting to the point of DC every 6-10 minutes. Currently sitting in the middle of the ocean, ship de-spawned after I DC'd (waiting for a friend to come fish me out). Gear has stayed for a change. Lost around 5 sets to other DC's so far. Still a great game with huge potential. Did try logging onto my own server to see if that was OK and if it was a different CO-OP zone server causing the problem. It was not perfect (a couple of DC's but no gear lost) but much better. When I went back onto CO-OP server afterwards, things did improve.

• 20 Feb, '21

  While fighting Bonemass, I died and went back to get my tombstone and it was gone. My friends said they saw it but it was gone when I went to pick it back up. We looked for it and someone said they saw it when they pickaxed the ground there but it was gone again a few seconds later. My deathmark was there at first and then disappeared.

• 20 Feb, '21

  Tonight three of us died in a swamp crypt and my gravestone was nowhere to be found. There was a marker on the map but no grave and my items seem to have all disappeared. Terribly vexing.

• 20 Feb, '21

  Skull marker on map but Tombstone not able to be accessed and then disappeared. Everything is gone and cannot be found after search. While the map skull is still there even now, even after reload and trying to use the old save, the tombstone marker is not there. Any suggestions?

• 20 Feb, '21
  Scott P

  Earlier today a player on our server died and his tombstone disappeared. We spent hours and hours grinding to get him his gear back afterwards. It just happened to me. I was killed by a Lox and after respawning my death mark is there on the map but no tombstone. 100+ hours of grinding, gone. Twice in 1 day this happened. It's game breaking and should absolutely be a top priority.

• 20 Feb, '21
  Michael

  Had this happen to us fighting in the swamp as well. We were fighting the 3rd boss and 3 out of 4 of us had our tombstones disappear and couldnt get our gear back. All that grinding away for resources wasted! Very frustrating!!!

• 20 Feb, '21
  Mike

  According to patch notes this was addressed in the last update. Apparently it is still broken, this happened to me. I died to a troll in the middle of a meadow came back to death marker on the map and not tombstone. Wolf skin, Iron Armor, Iron Weapons all gone so frustrating.

• 20 Feb, '21
  Meeso

  I was building a roof for a base and fell off to my death. I didn't have a bed spawn set so I ran back. When I got to my death marker, my tombstone wasn't there. Lost 50 hours worth of work.

• 20 Feb, '21
  Jordan

  Died in one of my bases from fall damage, then when I respawned in a base different to the one i died in, the gravestone followed and appeared next to my bed, I could not physically open it, the animation of it was happening but nothing was opening, I dug the floor out incase it was glitched in there, nope. I re-logged to see if that would fix it and when I came back the gravestone was completely gone. Hours of loot gone, dis-heartening because it can happen. Needs to be fixed as soon as possible.

• 20 Feb, '21
  Zax Lofful

  I was swimming and died from drowning, I was at the shore and basically on shore. No death point and all of my gear is gone. I had both my gear and a friends gear on me. Worth many hours of gameplay, just gone completely.

• 20 Feb, '21
  Piers

  Died of poison in a sunken crypt, went back and although the marker was in the right place for me there was no gravestone, everything was gone.
  
  Another player was able to see the gravestone outside the tomb but couldnt interact with it, weirdly he was the only person who could see it.
  
  Looks like I'm starting again, thanks a bunch enemy_blob!

• 20 Feb, '21
  Bridget R

  Read that this issue was patched, but seems to still be happening as of last night. Died from a drake in the mountains, and when went back to get the loot off my body the tombstone was missing. My brother who was playing with me would see my tombstone in a different location but unable to loot it, yet still wouldn't appear to me. Also, the whole items not auto stacking when you loot your corpse is frustrating and causes additional unnecessary deaths when you are wanting to grab everything off your corpse but the same items such as food won't auto stack and fills your bag space with the same items not allowing to grab everything and run.

  Moist

  Fighting Bone mass, got melee attacked/ one shot and it looked as if it slapped my tombstone away in the same strike. I returned and had a death point on the map, and 50ish feet away was my tombstone I couldn't interact with, which then teleported maybe 10 feet from my actual death point. pressing E made my character reach out, but there was no prompt to press the key nor a way to see my items. Sad at loss of new iron digs, weight belt, and gnome hat :(

• 20 Feb, '21

  I died fighting Draugr in a camp and when I came back there was no body to collect my items. All my bronze gear gone. Extraordinarily frustrating as this is hours and hours of grinding to make all of that.

• 21 Feb, '21
  john

  Hi, I was attacked while building and died. Seemed normal enough as it has happened plenty of times before. When trying to retrieve my corpse, my friend had placed a smelter on the spot where the tombstone was because it didn't show up on his screen. Upon destroying the smelter, the corpse appeared and immediately began to float into the sky and was not accessible. The marker is still on the map but the corpse has now disappeared.

  I had this happen to me one time in the 70 hours played with a friend on a dedicated server. It was in the swamp and I had jumped back and died to an enemy. My tombstone was about a few meters back from the actual position I had died, which I could see by the skull marked on the map. Interacting with the tombstone did a hand animation and audio of it crumbling nothing else just stayed there. While this is happening my friend could not see the tombstone at all and a server reboot made it disappear. Since then maybe 30 hours of gameplay it has not happened and we have died many times, but what I did start doing is a server reboot before we play and make sure there is a backup done at the end of the session. When this bug occurred the dedicated server was running for 36 hours hope this helps.

• 21 Feb, '21

  Same, died in swamp. Death point was on map, but no grave anywhere to be found and dozens of hours worth of upgraded armor and weapons, gone.

• 21 Feb, '21
  Foxtrot

  My symptoms are a bit different from most of the posters here, but the end result is the same. I was fighting a skeleton in a crypt, died, and then immediately the game crashed with a "fatal GC error" message and literally turned off my monitor lol. When I returned to the crypt, there was no grave marker, body, or items. I only have 20 hours in the game but they were 20 hours I really cared about. :(
  
  One weird detail is that when I reloaded the game and woke up at my spawn point, the campfire and all the torches around the building were out. I had just lit them before leaving for the crypt, so it's like the game is treating me like I had been gone a long time even though I'd only been gone 10 minutes or so.

• 21 Feb, '21

  Just died, and my death box did not appear. my entire level 3 brass setup disappeared. Armor, axe, sword, shield, and the key i just got from killing the second boss. all gone. 40ish hours of building my armor/weapons/tools gone.

  Something similar happened to me in my friends game. We went into a troll cave, after the fight began I received a smash from the troll which put me against the wall of the cave and I died. I went back to retrieve my stuff but my grave marker was buried in the wall of the troll cave and we were unable to dig it out. I lost everything.

  Myself and my friends have had this happen today (Feb 21st), and yesterday. Recent patch notes indicated this bug was squashed, but I am here to confirm that it was not.

• 21 Feb, '21
  WockComble

  Same here.
  Was fighting the Elder with 2 others. I died and my tombstone essentially flew a bit away from where I died. When I came back, the tomb was there, but I was unable to access it. Just kept saying "Here lies... Press (E) to open" but nothing happened. Then the tombstone despawned so I lost all my gear.
  
  The game then was bugging hard! I was glitching all over the place, one minute right by the elder, the next far away. Eventually I glitched so hard that my character changed from female to male and I was stuck running in place until the other two managed to defeat the Elder so we could all log off and rejoin.

  I just had my tombstone disappear upon death while in my trench down to the lowest level. I was trying to vault across one side to the other to see if I could make it but ended up slapping up against the rock face like a bug on a windshield and falling down to the ground to my death. I seen a tombstone erect upon death but when I went to go collect my stuff it was gone.

  I died to a blob in the swamp and my tombstone was not there when I got back. Full bronze armor and weapon/tool set lost.

  I lost my character's deathpoint and all my items after 65+ hours of gameplay. I'm not sure whether the fall damage or the wolf I was fighting killed my character. This occurred on the border of the Mountain and Black Forest biomes. This bug should be a top priority to resolve. Myself and the three other players that have been working together so far are uninterested and extremely discouraged from returning to play until this is resolved.

  I posted this identical message on the steam board before I found this website and figured I might as well post it here too.
  My friend has too much pride to say anything so I will.
  We we're fighting Bonemass and using a crypt nearby for safety. He entered the crypt but didn't actually go inside and was killed in the space between. His gear was unrecoverable. He lost a full set of level 2 iron armor, and a level 3 iron mace. Plus all the miscellaneous stuff he had collected to fight the boss. He has lost all desire to play and we were having a blast up until this point. Steam name is Hostileidiot. World name is Hostileworld. If there is anything you can do it would be greatly appreciated so we can get back to it, and make Odin proud. Thank you in advance and keep up the good work.

  Same happened to me, was fighting some goblins and died, went to retrieve my items and no loot was to be found. Very disheartening since I had just crafted the silver mace.

  Just happened to me today, tombstone gone along with all my upgraded gear. If not for the console command to respawn items I would've probably quit the game

  Died after some heavy desync after running away from some Plain monsters, possibly died while jumping/running on a rock (for the server at least) and couldn't get to the tombstone so lost all stuff.
  I personally used cheat codes to get back the stuff I had grinded (still want this game to be an experience) from my memory.
  
  Hopefully you'll find a fix soon

  This just happened to me when I right next to the elders location. My friend could see my backpack but I could not. It would not let my friend get the items in my backpack. I lost all my armor, weapons, and some other decent items.

  Hello I have three occurrences of the tombstone disappearing as soon as the game respawns me. You can see it when you die, but when game puts me at my bed, it disappears and all items lost. Other players usually cannot see it. On a single occasion, one player did see it, but could not interact with it. Please fix the tombstones!

  Died close to the swamp and my tombstone never spawned. Lost 50+ days of grinding and all my loot. Extremely frustrated, I bought 2x copies of this game and now this. Very unhappy

  5 people playing on a hosted game. Troll cave (1 room), everyone was killed more than once.
  Respawn was near. After picking up gear continued the fight, a lot of entering and leaving cave. 2 people died again near entrance. No tombstone

  My stone also disappeared in a crypt last night. Had just forged my full silver set and lost everything because my last back up was from a few days ago. Ended up having to use the admin console to respawn the items.

  We found a few times that when we died, all the elements disappeared at the point of death or duplicated and became twice as many.

  I also have similar experience, this time its in the plain. I was fighting a fuling patrol unit when i died. I then also die again because i under attacked near the portal. I then managed to go back to the plains to my first death point. When i get there, there is no tombstone for me to return my items. Surprisingly, my friend which play along with me also don't see the tombstone, but my friends tombstone in the area is still visible except me. Please kindly fix this bug.

  This has happened twice with players joining my local game. The first time was in the Black Forest fighting a troll, the person died on rock and gravestone disappeared. Reappeared near a tree but was inaccessible. GAme restart and the items were gone. The second time was in the Swamp a different play died to a combination of Drauger, Skeletons, Leeches, and Blobs... The gravestone was no were to be seen by anyone.

  John Smith

  Grave Marker disappeared along with all my inventory, It seems like I may have died in mid jump or while falling, My marker is on the map, but the tombstone is not visible in game. My inventory represented at least 20 hours of effort in the game. let alone all the resources that are no longer available that I used to make that gear. Support on this would be nice, very frustrating

• 22 Feb, '21
  Astragalius

  Exactly the same for me.... i died with my entire iron set yesterday but no way to find my tombstone.
  I tried again today but after getting back an entire new set, i died, and still no tombstone....
  
  i was used to play with friends but now i sadly decided to stop playing this great game... =(

• 22 Feb, '21
  didyouexpectthat

  Made my way into a troll cave. He annihilated me and my friends ran away. I trekked back naked and cold and once I got back inside, my deathpoint was gone. So many good weapons and epic things lost in the blink of an eye. We are now more hesitant to die now but scared that it could happen unexpectedly again.

  Same thing happened to me whilst fighting Bonemass. Guess I'll return in a year when the game is playable. This is a game breaking bug. When the game leaves early access they should really think of a way to support players who experience these bugs by having an option of an admin or something giving you the items back.

  same problem, but without crashing, just died and my sign was teleporting around without any item, 24h of armor and weapons lost, that kind of things make me sad

  Died right outside a swamp crypt, went back and my tombstone wasn't there. Tried digging down and restarted the server, still gone. So that sucks.

• 23 Feb, '21

  This happened to a client on my server a few days into playing. Then, it just happened to me (the host) minutes after I returned with a ton of iron and spent about 200 bars on new gear/upgrades... This is a game-breaking bug and totally guts my desire to play.

• 23 Feb, '21
  fierce_Eski

  So all of my full set of iron gear a shield a mace and a bunch of food vanished after dying to the BoneMass boss and i cant get my stuff back with out going back to square one because of a bug that made my stuff vanish.

• 23 Feb, '21
  CometKnows

  When me and my friend Fierce_Eski were fighting the Bonemass boss in the swamp we died and me and his grave disappeared with all are stuff in the grave. I had a level three iron club, full level three iron armor with a level 4 troll cape, i had a banded shield level 1, 5 cooked lox meat, around 80 iron arrows, I had around 10 cooked meat, a battle axe, a stag breaker. that is everything important that i remember in my inventory when i died last before my grave disappeared.

  Jalindria

  This is the 2nd time I have lost my entire gear set to a missing tombstone. First time was in some shallow water (you could walk in it) between a plains and swamp biome and the most recent was on top of a rock between black forest and plains biome. Husband and I tried to mine down the rock but could never find it. I was able to return to the marker on the map both times but no gravestone to be found. Hours of mining lost AGAIN, please fix this! This game is so good but this bug is about to make me quit. I can't make any progress if I have to keep spending hours grinding for ore to replace what I lost.

  I was fighting the bonemass and my tombstone was gone and i lost im my upgraded gear. is there anything that can be done to get my gear back? This is a big letdown as this was the second time i lost all my gear due to this bug. any thing that will help?

  I fell off a tower to my death and saw my tombstone when I hit the ground but after respawning it was gone. Still showed the skull on the map where I died but all my stuff was gone

• 23 Feb, '21
  MessyAbyss

  Had this happen in the swamp. I died a few times, then one final time I went to pick up my stuff, got over encumbered due to losing my belt, and when I died my stone didn't drop. There was a previous one where one of my armor pieces still was. If they have somewhere to send it I do have video of it. Incredibly frustrating to lose hours and hours of work.

• 23 Feb, '21

  I was going up against the second boss and died but the tombstone marker was gone and kept moving everywherew. when i finally got next to it, it didn't let me gather my items. i lost hours of grinding, makes me not want to play the game anymore if

• 23 Feb, '21
  Priscil W

  Same here, was fighting a ghost with friends, when coming back again to my tombstone i died again. After that i re spawned in the black forest as male instead of female and could see the tombstone on various locations but my friends couldn't. Got back to the first site i died and saw a tombstone but couldn't pick my items up. Restarted the server but didn't matter.

• 23 Feb, '21
  YimGaucho

  Same as I, I had died in Swamp and when I went back to my death point on the map, nothing there but enemies!!
  All my stuff is gone (Bronze equipment LV3., Foods, Potion, Ore, etc.
  Is there any way to get them back after the bug fixed? I suggest the developer team (must)give us something special items or bring all items we lost back.
  
  Many thanks.

  Still a thing, things takes hours to farm in a otherwise catching game. Loosing all stuff like this is just not ok.

  Since the 2/15 update my s/o and I have both had our tombstones disappear. His was in the swamp, mine was in the mountains. It is very frustrating and not something we encountered before it was "fixed".

  I died in the plains from a Goblin, I came back to the point of death and the gravestone disappeared as I approached. I was also killed by a wraith on the edge of a swamp and the gravestome became a part of it as it flew around then disappeared.

  Hello, experience this issue last night. I was building up my base and fell from a high distance and died. Upon respawn, my grave marker had disappeared entirely, taking along my fully upgrade padded armor, Frostner, Draugr Fang, a black metal shield, and black metal axe. It will take some time to be able to get all these items back. It was quite the disappointing bug.

  Same. I was in the Mistlands, however. Between Mountain, Swamp and Plains Biome. I got killed by a goblin, ran back, got killed again and my original grave marker was not there. 2nd grave marker was where it was supposed to be and had the correct items on it (few pieces of food). I went through a portal from middle of map to mistlands during these grave runs.
  
  Thank you so much for such a WONDERFUL GAME!

  We were playing in the swamp biome, and a draugnt archer killed my friend, and he lost his tombstone and his 30+hour playing armor set, items, weapons and tools, the real pain was that he bought like 2 hours before, the meginjord belt :(

• 23 Feb, '21
  Dylan

  Just grinded for over 2 days (about 17 hours in total) to get all Level 2 bronze weapons/armour for me and another player, Died outside of my base, the tombstone was visible, but no option to collect materials. Tried restarting the game and the tombstone then completely disappeared. All that hard work gone. Even tried using f5 console to respawn lost items as suggested, but nothing actually spawned, it just highlighted the text blue. @Devs surely you've made enough money now to hire a few extra people to squash some bugs? I love the game, but if this keeps happening, it's not something I'm going to want to continue to play.

  Two of us in my game also died in the swamp fighting the boss, can see the marker on the map but both of our tombstones and entire iron sets, weapons, and pick axes, were gone.

  This happened to me while fighting Bonemass. Full lvl 3 Iron gear I'm talking armor, sword, axe, pickaxe, bow, everything. After I died my totem was nowhere to be found, even after logging back in multiple times to try and fix it. All 53 hours I've played have led to that gear and it's gone in an instant. This needs to be fixed or more dedicated people like me will just quit. Game breaking bug and honestly DO NOT DIE IN THIS GAME. For a survival game this penalty seems a little harsh.

  This happened to me as well, on stream. I can probably find a clip if it helps in any way. I died to a flying creature while swimming, and my tombstone disappeared right away, all of my stuff gone.

  Same issue, lost my death stone in the swamp near our portal, just vanished while my hubby was fighting a wraith nearby

• 24 Feb, '21

  If this bug happens to any of you, the best solution I've found to recover the items is loading the world in-game (not dedicated server but can be online) and use "imacheater" in console (F5), then use "spawn [item] [quantity] [level]". The full item list can be found here, it also includes creatures.
  
  https://www.slythergames.com/2021/02/15/valheim-how-to-spawn-items/
  
  Levels didn't work for weapons, armor and tools, but you can spawn the materials used to upgrade them too.

• 24 Feb, '21

  That happened to me and my friends, playing on the dedicated server. Had to spawn all the items, they were weeks of hard work.

• 24 Feb, '21
  Gholam

  I didn't die, but I desynched while mining iron in a room with no enemies. When I came back, I had respawned on my bed with my entire set of bronze gone: weapons, armour, tools, and all of the items I got from the crypt. It happened to me again the following day (except with everything iron), and the day prior, it happened to someone I was playing with. It's disheartening to the point that I've kind of given up. 3 days in a row is too much. It's incredibly difficult to progress, when you're back at square one once a day.

  Again, me and a friend lost our loot from tombstones vanishing. Mine just happened today in the plains after getting shot by a goblin my friend seen my tombstone in a wall and watched it vanish before us while I couldn’t see it at all.

Not upgraded but still eh heh no but seriously the tombstone check patch did nothing help!!S.O.S

  Two days ago (on February 23rd) I went with my husband to kill Bonemass. I got killed by a 2 star Draugh archer. I came back to get my body but I walked across a Surtling fire and got hearts and coal that were dropped by them on the ground. I tried to reach my tombstone, opened it and hit the "get all" buttom. But I got nothing... Maybe because I was running next to 4 or 5 mobs naked and no hp. The tombstone dissappeared. I lost all my equipment. I was running across the whole swamp trying to get it. But it was gone. I could never find it again. What happened? Why would a Tombstone dissappear if I didnt get any of my loot?.

  Happened to our crew (8) last night, after taking down 3rd & 4th boss there were some deaths in the mountains and plains. 3 people got no tombstone and was super discouraging. Also didn’t make those of us that still had our stuff want to go out for more adventuring.

  Happened to me on a dedicated server. I died after traveling through a portal and falling a few meters away from the ground, I came back to my death location and my tombstone was nowhere to be found. Extremely disappointed as I was really enjoying the game, but will not be playing again after this.
  
  Also after a substantial amount of reports regarding the same issue you would think the devs would tackle this game breaking bug asap....Hopefully it gets fixed soon so that other players don't lose hours of game time.

  We also experienced this issue. A player on my dedicated server lagged out and when they returned just a few minutes later, their tombstone and all their items were gone. We were in a swamp at the time. Also note upon loading back in, all monsters respawned within seconds.

  Today playing with my brother on his server, the third boss killed me. Strangely I revived in the area where the trophies of the bosses are hung, and when I returned to the area of ​​my death, at the mark of the skulls, my equipment was not there. I searched a long time, but found nothing. I lost all my stuff, including a wishbone that I had a really hard time getting on my own server. I have been "in-game" for more than 100 days and I have spent many hours playing. Please, I ask you for a solution to my problem.
  I sincerely hope, I do not want to stop playing because of this problem.

  Same for me, was fighting against a troll. I got desynchronized or something like that, I died. After that, I can see my tomb on the map, but not on the field. Lost all my items, hours and hours of farming lost :(. Is there any way to get it back ?

• 28 Feb, '21

  Same for me. This shuld be prioritized since it ruins the game if it happens to you.

• 28 Feb, '21

  I understand how this works, unfortunately the server and client don't really "sync" information. So,
  Anything that happens on the client happens to your character and if your computer crashes, so does your progress since last save (sleeping, logging in)
  
  Anything that happens on the server (fighting bosses, monsters, farming, building) is saved at it's own pace (I believe it's each day).
  
  Since this is the case, you can "duplicate" items by force crashing your client after dropping your items, and gain double back. It's a weird way of going about it but, if there was a way for the server to hold your progression for the client temporarily after a non-normal disconnect, you can sign back in with all your stuff.
  
  This works for the client side as well, if it held a copy of your character data since last save of the server (based on last day), when a abnormal crash happens, the server and client can sync which data it should use.
