Character Name: Malothar
Race: ElvaanM
World: Bahamut
Main Job: Geomancer Lv. 99
Support Job: Red Mage
Area and Coordinates: Everywhere
Party or Solo: Solo
NPC Name: None
Monster Name: None
Steps:

1: Turn on Lockstyle with a set with Dunna equipped.
2: Swap Dunna for any Ammo equipment, IE. Ghastly Tathlum +1, Plumose Sachet, Hasty Pinion +1, or Impatiens
3: Character blinks due to swapping to a different "weapon class" even though these ammo equipments don't have an animation or model due to being un-throwable.

PS: Before Lockstyle sets were introduced, Geomancer was able to /lockstyle with a bell equipped in their Ranged equipment slot and freely equip anything within the Ammo slot without blinking. When Lockstyle sets were introduced, this functionality broke. I can deal with blinking on most jobs, but with Geomancer's Indiclure effects reloading each time you blink, it's extra frustrating to blink on this job. I had hoped the last update's Ranged lockstyle would have fixed this.

Malithar Not only that as of late i've noticed quite a few npc's blinking out then popping back in upon clicking on them as late, Especially the RoE/sparks npc's. I'd say within the past couple of months Malthar this has happened and this is while being on pc style system of ffxi!

They said in patch notes a few months ago that they intentionally made talking to the RoE NPC unload other player characters from your view.
