I lost my harpseeker ward sometime. Yes you can buy it in the store but mine was made from hextech crafting and sometime while play league I notice it was gone. At first I thought it was just a glitch and it would reappear but it did not. To add to that, in the store it already says I own it but it's gone. I lost my favourite ward due to some stupid bug.

Hi there, nibble101!

First off, I'm sorry that you're experiencing this issue. I'm going to need a little extra information to try to understand what might be going on better. :]

Do you happen to know which of these wards you're seeing problems with? The Banner of the Horse, Lantern of the Serpent, Banner of the Serpent, Gong, or Firecracker ward?

Are you able to select the ward skin in the Ward Skins tab in the Store?

Do you not see the ward skin at all in Champion Select--like you're not able to find it or click on it at all?

Did you make any recent ward skin purchases? The icon for the ward may have also just shifted in the Ward Skin Selection window that pops up when you press the button in Champ Select.

Thanks. :]

It was the Lantern of the Serpent and it had been selected at the ward skin selection icon but the choice is no longer available as of around a week ago. I had gotten the skin during the Chinese new year event and had it ever since. I do not remember if I had purchased it but I was defiantly using it in my pasted games. I don't know why it is no longer available.

Hi there! Thanks for the info. :]

We looked into your account and found that you have never purchased a ward skin nor received one as a gift before, so it looks like you might have used the Lantern of the Serpent ward while it was free during either the 2013 or 2014 Lunar Revel events when the wards were free to select during the duration of the event.

If you were able to successfully equip the ward and use it in game outside these events and now you aren't able to, then I think you should hit up the awesome player support peeps with your issue. They will be better able to help you out!

Hi LoveStrut, Could you take a look at my account? My championship ward skin for getting gold a few seasons ago is missing.

Cyber PhoenixJul 29, 20162 votes

If it's the ward skin from 2014 I'm missing mine too. The ward skin button went grey a few days ago and when I could select ward skins again that's when it went poof.

AcrylicSirenAug 7, 20162 votes

I also had a ward disappear, Banner of the Horse. Vanished on this patch.

The same problem has happened to me and idk where it went. I had the Lantern of the Serpant skin for almost a year and recieved it from a mystery box. It is a really nice ward and I would like to have it back because I know I've had the skin before.

MordorAug 10, 20162 votes

I am also missing a couple of ward skins! The 2014 achievement ward skin and 1 or 2 others. I'm not sure if I should send an email to riot or if this comment will help.

I have the same problem, but i have to say that all my Limited edition skins disappeared. I can use Starcall Ward, thats it. Amumu

ThunderspamAug 12, 20162 votes

The lantern of the serpent ward, Aka loot_name_ward_skin_rental_16 was unavailable for both champ select(by this I mean it just wasn't an option to select) and I also had a shard for the ward skin and it was unlockable( possibly because I owned it but idk what was wrong) Also as a side note, what are all of these loot_name_ ward_skin things? The ghost(the true name escapes me) ward is skin no. 8 I believe, and I was just curious about what was going on with these?

My Lantern of the Serpent Ward skin which I got through Hextech Crafting has also disappeared when in Champion Select. I can no longer see it in the ward skin options, but my other ward skins are still present.

I have the harpseeker ward and I got it in a hextech a while ago, and after the Kled release its gone! Checked the store and it still says I own it but in champ select I'm unable to select it and its not even there.

I started having this problem about a day ago my rising dawn ward skin and my mecha ward skin just disappeared i checked the store and it says i own them but they are not there in champ select

Koenyboy500Aug 16, 20161 votes

Yea, I just lost my Battlecast ward too. I recently bought the (second) Project ward (from the ashe/ekko/katarina section) and my battlecast ward just dissapeared from the ward select menu. Completely. In the shop it just says: "Owned" (because I bought it obviously). Don't want anyone to panic or feel bad. Just notifying.

Sidenote that is completely irrelevent: I WANT THE GLORIOUS EVOLUTION ICON ;__; D:

Koenyboy500Aug 16, 20161 votes

Deleting original comment saying that I lost my battlecast ward. WARD HAS BEEN RESTORED AND READY TO BE USED :D Everything is fine now. No problem anymore :P

Same here. I lost my Lunar Revel "Lantern of the Serpent" Ward skin. Any solutions?

It doesn't even appear in the ward selection, but I've bought it some years ago.

DragamoraApr 13, 20191 votes

I opened a chest and got a ward skin out of it (Cat Lover) and it immediately disappeared and I can't find it anywhere. It's not permanent and it's not in my loot. I want my skin back!

CallMeSauronNov 2, 20191 votes

I'm just now getting back into the game since 2015, so idk how some of the loot system works but common sense tells me somethings bugged. I turned this dragonslayer poro ward skin into a "permanent", and now its just gone. Same thing happened about a week ago with some little legend thing. Where do I find them?
