Stash Category can't be deleted properly

What went wrong?

Okay. So, I’m in SC Trade. I made a new category upon buying new stash tabs, so I could organize things more like I’m used to. I quickly realized that I cannot delete the second one.

If I try to delete the categories, the stash tabs in the first category just vanish from the UI temporarily, until I create new categories again. Upon creating a new category again, the missing tabs return.

All kinds of weirdness happens when I then start adding more stash tabs. Can temporarily not take pictures of that.

As for consistency, this is persistent and has been for 3 days. I have obviously restarted the client multiple times since then. It persists with other characters too. Have not attempted it in offline.

Thanks.

I can confirm I have encounter the same bug.

I have 2 duplicate category called “Category 3” in my stash:

And 1 of them is like a “ghost” category that I can never right-click on it to edit it or delete it. When there are 2 selected at the same time like this I can right-click et edit/delete but it will keep the ghost category still. If I delete one of them et add another category it will automatically get linked with the ghost category.

What is a lot more scary is when you do some manipulation of moving around a stash tab and putting it in the ghost category and deleting the other category you can make the stash tab completely disappear! However I have confirmed this is only a UI bug as if you add another category the stash tab come back with all the items. I also have tested that exiting and restarting the game seem to place back the lost stash tab back in a visible category.

However, exiting and restarting the game multiple time does not fix my ghost category and I am feeling I am trap with it forever!

I also want to note that after some searching this was a known bug for about 1 and a half year. A EGH team member did confirm the existance of this bug in this reddit post :
https://www.reddit.com/r/LastEpoch/comments/reygo8/stash_bug_my_categories_are_connected_somehow/

And also this bug have reported in the bug forum here before :
https://forum.lastepoch.com/t/stash-tab-categories-bug/47062/8

In this forum post a work around existed by editing files in offline mode. However with 0.9.0 in online mode it is impossible to fix this with online characters and stash!

To add to this, I just tested the behavior of adding a third category like you described and it exhibits the same behavior you just described when I do, so I won’t be more detailed about it than that.

It’s safe to say though that it’s the exact same bug.

Edit: took a picture of the “pairing”.

Edit 2: Added another category, now three of them are “bonded”.

I’ve also now run into this issue.

The good news is you can bug it out more by relogging and then opening the chest, and it will show you all your tabs in a single row, then you can page over the tabs to the ones that are in the broken category, and then you can remove the items, so this bug hasn’t actually lost any items still, like the old one, but it really needs to get fixed as there’s now like 10 tabs I can’t use, and I can’t ever make more categories until this is fixed.

It seems possible to lose the contents of tabs.

I tried to delete a category a few times and only noticed after 2 attempts that it was actually deleting other categories. I created 2 new categories but only got one set of restored tabs.

I’m a new player, just ran into this issue, “Category 3” can’t be edited or deleted and if I make more categories, then highlight one of the two category 3 tabs, they both get highlighted at same time but only 1 can be edited or deleted.

I just lost access to a category. No amount of messing around with new categories has brought by old category and items back. :frowning_face:

I was hoping restarting the game would fix it but it did not.

It had all my keys in it!

From what I remember:

  • I bought some new stash tabs
  • I created a new stash category
  • I moved the new category (while empty) between existing categories
  • I created yet another new category
  • I tried to delete the category I moved

Expected: The category is deleted
Actual: A completely different category is deleted

Oh right, one more thing. I’m now in a state where one of my new categories behave exactly the same. They have the same name “Category 5” and have the same stash tab “Keys 2” underneath them. When I click on one, they both are highlighted.

Has anyone found a fix for this? I tried everything and don’t see my tabs :frowning:

For recover your tabs create new categories, need repair this but fast >.<

I created multiple new ones and still don’t see my tabs

Hello,

I had the same issues few minutes ago.
I wanted to delete one empty category and it delete another one instead.

By doing so, it delete the stash tabs and the gear inside the tabs.

I noticed after that that another category was anavailable. I couldn’t select the category.

I reloqd the gqme to see if it will fix all, but nope, the issues where the same.

To be able to access to the category that was unaccessible, i had to create new category.

I tried all that this topic says to get back the gear and the tabs of the deleted category, and, for now, nothing worked: i’m short 6 stash tabs and the gear that was inside.

To be more complete:
I wanted to create a new tab stash, to see if it will fix it, but i didn’t had enough money.
Nonetheless, the game ask me 230k gold, so my stashs are gone but the price of the next tab is as if i had all my stash tabs

We trust you to fix this ! Keep the amazing work that you’re doing.

I love your game,

Regards.

I noticed now that when i’m selecting specifique category, tow are selected at the same time:

All my items are back, thanks to you.

Thanks for fixing this bug, you guys are the bests !

Regards.

Last hotfix did not fix it for me. Yes, I can now right click on empty categories and select “delete category” and they seem to be deleted. Yet, when I relog, all deleted categories reappear. I also tried creating a new one and deleting it. Now I have 2 empty categories that reappear when I relog. I also tried renaming all of my categories. I tried switching maps to trigger saving maybe. Nothing worked. Can you please look into this?
