Bizarre Warzone glitch steals Riot Shields from players mid-game ActivisionAn annoying Warzone bug is making a critical weapon vanish from players\u2019 inventories and there\u2019s only one way to stop it until the devs fix it themselves. The Riot Shield can be an important tool in some players\u2019 arsenals. While not flashy by any means, it can provide a tactical advantage to anyone proficient with it and can even come up clutch when dealing with hackers. However, it can also randomly disappear in the most annoying of ways. As detailed by YouTuber Rito Rhymes, if you have the Riot Shield equipped or in your inventory and you get downed while in a vehicle, after you get revived, it\u2019s gone. Instead, you\u2019ll be left with a \u201cno weapon\u201d icon and, to make matters worse, the bug is extremely consistent. According to Rhymes, it doesn\u2019t matter if you self-revive or a teammate revives you, your Riot Shield will vanish. It also doesn\u2019t matter if your vehicle explodes or you get shot out of it or what your other weapon is with just one exception. How to fix vanishing Riot Shield bug The only way to guarantee your Riot Shield doesn\u2019t vanish is to have a shotgun equipped or in your inventory. For some reason, if you do this, then your Riot Shield will be fine. Any other weapon, however, will just keep causing the Riot Shield to disappear out of thin air, leaving you in quite a vulnerable state. \u201cThe exception persists if you swap a shotgun for another weapon then get downed in a vehicle, so long as the shotgun was the last weapon you had before swapping,\u201d Rito noted. \u201cHowever, the bug will reactivate after you get downed and revived once, you\u2019ll lose your Riot Shield if you get downed and revived a second time, unless you pick up another shotgun.\u201d Basically, as Rito put it, if you\u2019re going to get into a vehicle with the Riot Shield equipped, you should ride shotgun\u2026 literally.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
