I played several ARAM games last night, and randomly, I couldn't see some of the health packs. I'd only know they were active if I accidentally stepped on them or saw someone else step on them. It wasn't consistent, but it seemed to affect the Professor side pack just behind the outer turret more than the other ones (at least that I noticed). These are pretty big objectives in ARAM, so not being able to see can be life or death.
TheFancySkeleton10 votesShaco's boxes are also making HIS death sound. It's quite annoying.
Zindane Leingod3 votesYeah its super annoying, I kept thinking i was missing him/the clone dying.
HaugheyPuck991 votesThe same thing was happening to me with Azir's sand soldiers too. Although I thought it was pretty funny
Noor Sakata1 votesShaco's boxes are also making HIS death sound. It's quite annoying.
LOL this ! I thought Shaco boxes always shows his death sound but I was drunk or something before when it didn't
LegendaryLemur6 votesYes, i noticed this last night. You can see which ones are up by pressing tab (in the area where the dragon/baron/etc timers are on Summoner's Rift).
I'm pretty sure i noticed it occuring on all 4 packs.
Velzard of Koz4 votesLMAO Happened to me yesterday in ARAM. I was like "That pack disappeared, Shaco must be near... Wait he's on our team... Dafuq?"
PaladinNO3 votesTaliyah Q-patches are turning invisible too. https://boards.na.leagueoflegends.com/en/c/gameplay-balance/v82HELEA-the-new-font-is-terrible?comment=00020007
And now I understand why I didn't see the Skarner spires I could swear was there previously, when I played with a Skarner earlier today.

This all seems like some pretty significant asset losses, I wonder why Riot hasn't addressed it yet.
PaladinNO1 votesEspecially as it isn't consistent - if the assets were invisible all the time, at least it would be possible to go back to the good, old tactical game of using the head to do the numbers (RIP season 3).
But as it only happens occasionally, the brain is lured into a false sense of security, especially with timed assets - when they're gone, they're not active anymore. But then you step into that area, and realize it's still there.
I won't go as far as to say it cost me the Taliyah game, but it did cost me a couple of kills, when I expected to fire 5 rock(et)s point blank, and got off only 1.
The bug itself, I can handle - I cannot handle the silence from Tencent (*looks up the status page*), or the lack of reason for the bug to happen in the first place, had this been a properly coded game. I get the interaction of code, but for something like this to happen inconsistently, it suggests something not good is playing out behind the scenes.
NepgearDesu1 votesI seem to remember that all disappearances of assets were caused by my moving my screen away from them, and they did not reappear as I set my sight back onto them. Not too sure, though. their spawning outside of my field of view. (checked it just now)
Heath packs' availability can be checked with a quick press on the Tab key, so it isn't too absolutely freaking damn aggravating; only a little so. Skarner's spires on the other hand were gone for good, even the capture circles. Not sure about the large circles delimiting the crystal zones, but I cant remember seeing them.
The circles delimiting the healing area of each health pack had disappeared last patch, though: it vanished when disappearing from view, or the pack was taken without my looking at it.
The replay does not seem to suffer from these issues, however.
wolvius3 votesYeah ran into this bug a few time on ARAM happens with all of them but seems most common on the Inner ally and inner enemy health packs, best to ping the timer on the Tab menu so your allies know its up if your going to use it. I looked at a replay yesterday and it seems the ones that were invisible ingame were also invisible in the replay file.
Lord Ral993 votesI've seen this bug too. I have to look at map to check if a health packs has spawned.
DeusVult2 votesThe same thing happened to me against a skarner, all of his shrines were invisible unless i was standing on them
Tormentula2 votesYea, I noticed that + I was playing twisted treeline and I noticed skarner's spires sometimes were not visible at all. The effect wasn't visible either. Not sure what the problem is.
Emerald Fang2 votesIt was always the outer blueside pack, that was it.
Fisher No Chains1 votesHappens with scuttle too on SR. You can see the Scuttlecrab’s health bar but can’t see the buff circle. Happens with other stuff such as Anivia ult, kinda annoying bug.
LegendaryLemur1 votesNot sure if this is the same bug. For a long time, there has been the ARAM health pack bug where the circle sometimes doesn't show up after you pick up the health pack.
Now the packs themseles (the big + icons), sometimes do not appear.
Fisher No Chains1 votesOh, while reading the OP and other comments I thought they meant “health packs are invisible”, my bad, haven’t played ARAM in a while and didn’t understand that you mean “they disappear as a whole”.
Minimac20001 votesThe southernmost hp pack has been invisible in every aram game I've played since the patch hit, didn't notice it before though
Verandure1 votesScarner pillars are also invisible
Greystag1 votesYeah happening here too. I've been playing ARAM all day and the bug is present in every single match. The redemption effect is also invisible.

the sounds are off too. they will play but it would go off really late
TrikzterzArma1 votesSame here. Could see that they were there on the minimap, but they were invisible
TheMinez1 votesI'd believe it to be related to the Grag Q and Singed W turning invis sometimes on rift. The Singed W one I have only had happen to me once though.
Zindane Leingod1 votesOh good, glad its not just me. I just updated my graphics card drivers and thought something got messed up
GelsominoKiller1 votesMmmmhhhh spaghetti.... Delicious
zoliking1 votesIt's not much of an issue, because you see them on the minimap, but yeah this happened before and is happening now again to me too. It is kind of annoying. Ish. On some level.
Friendly Ram1 votesI'm more annoyed with the healing circles being invisible.
Grokmir1 votesI think a lot of stuff is going invisible now. I was having trouble with gragas q disappearing and scuttle's vision not showing up.
Oleandervine1 votesI still wonder why we haven't heard from Riot on this. Game assets flat out disappearing in game, especially when they're important elements like spires, ultimates, abilities, etc, are extremely critical, and can make or break a game if you can't see something that's supposed to be there.
Cheryl1 votesThey were invisible sometimes for the past few days. I play A LOT of aram and noticed that they are not sometimes invisible anymore..... but all the time for me. As mentioned, you can see their status in the tab menu and also on the map so it is not totally screwed up. I also noticed that when someone steps on them now, the ring is gone too. ¯_(ツ)_/¯
HaugheyPuck991 votesIf there's a Skarner in your game his crystal things you capture were also turning invisible. Although they do still appear on the minimap. This one is kind of a big advantage for him since they're not normally there, so if you can't see them you'll most likely forget they're there to begin with. So people walk past them and he has them all uncontested
DARCKD00M1 votesHI all yes this bug been going on for a while now( AKA BEFORE ODYSSEY YES YES) like so many others that were pointed out to riot SADLY THEY TAKE TOO MUCH TIME FIXNG BUGS NOT RELATED TO SUMM RIFT OR RANKED EVEN IF IT AFFECTS A LOT OF PEOPLE A SMALL BUG IT STILL A BUG FIX IT!

GTA Portal1 votesTake the health packs out of ARAMS, sounds like a welcome change.
Just the Lip1 votesAnd now the scuttle crab circle that shows u got it and receive a move speed boost disappears sometimes.
Nice patch guys! doing God's work.
Noor Sakata1 votesLol what happened with me is the exact opposite , I could see the Health Packs but couldn't take them , seems like because they were already taken but stayed there
LordGeovanni1 votesSeveral times some week ago
The Lonesome God1 votesSpeaking of Aram bugs, The Emotes wheel being blank randomly has been around for a while.
Zyra's plants have been bugged where they just stare towards the top left corner sometimes, seems to be random. Ekko has two suggested pages of the same items, but formatted differently. Quite a few Ability names are missing, especially in Death Recap, Taliyah W comes to mind.
