Player Character Turns Invisible and Helpless After Knockdown

This new bug has happened only a few times, so it seems intermittent. But when the player character gets knocked down, sometimes the player character turns invisible and cannot attack anymore. There are sounds of ‘swinging’ a weapon and grunt sounds from the character, but no contact can be made. Worse, the attacking NPC can still hit the player (and the player can still lose health). The only “fix” seems to be to teleport someone (and let the game reload the character).

Reproducing the problem:
Since its only happened a few times, it may not trigger right away. This last time that I was playing, I was working my way through the Executioner’s Entrance (a cave) and encountered many spiders. When a spider happened to jump me (knocking my character down), I was turned invisible. And because I could no longer attack and was only being attacked, I had to flee the cave. My character can still move (as the camera continues moving) but I cannot see my character.

I do not know if its a knockdown coupled with a bleed effect, or if its because of the location, or what factors are happening to produce this. It has not happened when Rhinos knocked me back, so it was inconsistent. It happened once yesterday and once today.

Its an annoying bug that ‘stops’ gameplay. I would recommend prioritizing a fix for this one.

This has been happening for a long time this always happens to me when im cutting wood on oasis when turtle attack me i get invisible after getting knock down the fix for this is to let the turtle attack you again(live pc build)
Try equiping pickaxe of something i also don’t t know how to recreate this bug but every time i got cut trees on oasis and get attack by turtles i become invisible.

Have you tried switching to first person just to see if its invisible or knocked underworld? Was having problem in past where you get knocked under mesh and cannot do anything and only 2 ways found to fix it was either relog or find a incline to go thru just a thought.
