I started DA:O and went to load a saved game, it was pretty quick as it hadnt had a chance to auto login, to my surprise my PC and Allistair were missing their weapons - Final Reason and a sword made from the Star Material - Starfang. I loaded a slightly earlier save and yet again the weapons were missing. This time I exited and made sure I was logged in then loaded a save just before that again, this time the weapons are all there. Morrigan's weapon was still there in all the saves, nothing special just the 'Enchanters Staff'.
Unfortunately they are still missing from the later save games. This is very concerning and was wondering if anyone else is having this issue? Luckily for me the saves are quite close together so the time to get back to where I was is minimal thankfully.

Currently I have a similar problem with the armour of my main.
When I started AO and loaded the last save, the armour was gone. This is especially annoying, because the last save was made after a very tough fight.

To add to my earlier detail, I now remember after the saved game loaded I had a pop up for a successful quest, when I clicked it the Wardens Keep - Soldier's Peak quest was shown but I had already done this some time ago. I suspect its something to do with checking the validity of the account with the downloadable content due to me not having logged in yet it must have thought it wasnt valid and so some items disappeared.
Im extremely concerned if this is how it will always be, I am just a paying user, I dont care how things are done to prevent piracy etc, I just want to be able to play the game without issues like this occuring.

Just reloaded again and Shale has turned an odd bright white colour, and so has the Starfang sword. Disabling and re-enabling the DLC's does nothing, even older save games appear to be affected. This is sh%t.

Finally my armour reappeared, after a 30 minutes reload-debauchment.
I just wonder, if all these problems occure because of this online-handling of content.

The only problem I have with my weapons, and shields is that when they're not wielded they appear to 'float' off the character's backs, in other words the weapons and shields are not attached to the characters correctly.

I have the same problem with my items vanishing. From what I understand the validation is done via login. If I may throw out to the dev team a suggestion? If I am correct the validation info is stored via SQL? So sending data to the server checking to see if the DLC is suppose to be on the account. My suggestion is to basically have the client write a log file with the validated info in the log and have the log encrypted. A common algorithm or something salted perhaps to ensure the log can not cracked without a lot of time put into it. Have the log require a serial of sort so that the log can only be read on that pc. I think that it would save the user from being stuck without their DLC items and characters if they have to play offline as I do from time to time. I don't know what I have to do to get my items back other then wait for a patch but if a dev would atleast run this by your team to see if my idea is do-able so to speak I would appreciate it. Untill then I will start another character I guess until this issue is resolved. Thanks for taking the time to read this.

I had this isuue. I were in the elf place and had gone trough the clouds to the werewolf place. I saved there and loaded it up the day after. Now my staff is gone. I tried everything but it was gone in several save games.
Also some issues with my DLCs, i have finnished them all and have the quest finnished in my log. But after this bug with the weapons it acts as i havent done them yet. I have Shale, but when i talk to him it says he aint activated, I can have him in my party. The Warden Keeps quest guy showed up in my camp again as i hadnt done the quest, I traveled over there and it was nothing outside the keep, all the vendors and the chest were gone. I havent entered Wardens Keep yet, but I were able to do so.

I had the exact same thing happen to me tonight. After loading into a new zone (in Denerim), I was missing Starfang, a Warden Recruit Shield, a highpower staff (can't remember name atm), plus, my Dhalish Promise ring had been removed from the character it was on and placed back into inventory. After reloading all of my save games, I finally loaded one up that had the items on the characters (but only on the 2nd load, the first time I loaded this save, the items were missing).
After a little backtracking, I was unable to have it happen again to test. So I would say this is a major bug. Not to mention, I would have been utterly ticked off if I couldn't get those items back.

This has been going on for a long time now. It's hard to keep track of this forum, but I've not seen any resolution of this bug yet? Is it being looked into?

Suddenly missing items from Soldier's Peak and the location itself too. After loading any saved game I get a message that the Soldier's Peak Quest has been successfully done (although I've done it before). Checking / unchecking the DLC doesn't help.

Just happened with me as well. Sten is now naked, as my DLC armor is gone. I 'reclothed' him with other armor I was carrying -- will that cause the DLC armor to never come back. Also no longer have my DLC shield on main character.

Baffled is all I can add to this thread.
I just loaded my last save in the basement of Redcliff.
Alistair has a helmet on but is otherwise NAKED.
My main is missing his staff.
This bug is annoying and gamebreaking.
The small picture/screenshot of the last save even shows them fully equipped, but when loaded the equipment is still missing.
Even if I try loading earlier saves - equipment is gone.
Anyone done anything to resolve this?
Or did anyone experience getting their equipment back somehow by re-loading or something?!?
// Grrrrrr

I had this happen right before the last battle. Zev's tricked out weapons were gone, and he was equipped only with an Antivan longbow. Luckily I was able to backtrack not too far and then unequip them before the cutscenes, and they were then safely in my pack. The only reason I found out they were gone the first time was because we got wiped without my beloved threshing machine.

Eventually what I did was log out ensuring auto login is not set, close the game, start it again and double check the DLC's were all installed\\enabled and loaded the saved game again, set login credentials, close the game and start it up again, wait a few secs for the login to occur and then load the save game. This seem to resolve the white colouring on the content items and characters but did not resolve the save games with the missing items. Just continued on from there. Ongoing everytime I started DA:O I just made sure the content was installed enabled before loading the save game.

I did something similar to what Slappers said above. But, all I did was log out, relog back in and the items were back in the savegame. Not sure if it has something to do with the game contacting the EA servers about the content (like a DRM of sorts) or what. Has happened twice to me now.
I guess the thing to remember is that the items are not permanently lost.

I have experienced the same problem. The first time I noticed it was when I went into the proving grounds in the Dwarven city; Alister's armer (from the wardens keep DLC) disappeared and he was in his underpants. It happened again after I entered Denirim for the final battle. I suggest not using or buying any DLC content, I think that would solve the problem. There are some pretty good weapons in the game already just use those. It would be nice if the developers could post some definative solution to a big problem like this.

Not to discredit anyone having problems, but I noticed that when I press / my character will put away his weapons and they won't appear in the inventory. I had thought they disappeared but were just unequipped, just incase anyone had a similar problem give it a try.

Craig aren't you just trading weapon sets? If you have no weapons loaded in the second slot that is what it looks like until you put something in there, usually your choice of ranged weapon. The / is a quick switch for weapon choices. The only players I don't used the second slot on is the mages because they will switch away from their hits every time staffs (staves?) whenever someone tries to melee with them.
The missing swords happened to me for the first time tonight. I have Soldiers Peak downloaded and played through it once before,but all I have done in ths game is find the ore. I am at the top floor in the Mages Circle quest about to start the dream sequence. My PC and Alistaire both had their rune swords disappear in the last two Templar rooms. I am pretty pissed but at least they weren't three rune weapons. The game already locks up often enough, usualy after a major brawl. I don't need it stealing my **** too:)

"Suddenly missing items from Soldier's Peak and the location itself too"
I have the same problem and it is a game breaker. Suddenly Soldier's Peak is no longer on my map and all the gear is gone. Infuriating.
