Same thing here, unequipped my spear to take a look at some daggers I'd picked up and couldn't re-equip.

I got it too.

And I have not kept any spares around (even on melonni who I never bothered to upgrade) So I'm left to fight with the banana scythe.

guess I'll just not play for a bit and tell my friends not to bother.

I'm betting it has to do with the update to the /bonusitem command getting changed. tried summoning another set of items and that didn't help either.

Yup. Just checked mine, can't equip the bonus spear. Though it is equipped in the second weapon slot, but only because it was already there anyway.

Same thing happened to me. Really stinks since don't have a backup scythe of enchanting with that dam mod on it. Wasn't expecting to need one!

emailed anet and received a reply
"Also, please be aware that we are unable to recover any items or characters that have been lost to your account for any reason.
but the weapon isn't missing its just not working. so it should be fixed.

for salamanca
"Added two new commands, /bonus and /special, to create items that were previously created using the /bonusitems command. The /bonus command creates items that may be created many times (such as preorder items). The /special command creates items that may be created only once per account (such as collector’s edition items)."

I also filled out a support ticket last night. Just love the detailed service they put into their responses. Why not just auto-reply with that message instead of waiting an hour?

Pfft. I'm sure since it's widespread it's a relatively easy fix based on an oversight in dealing with the new commands. Why not just have someone look at it, determine that, and report back with that information instead of giving a canned response? Oh well, anxiously awaiting my items or a refund check... (hehe)

Sorry for that bug. If it is not working for everyone, it will be very soon indeed. (But I believe the universal fix was put in place today.)
