I have the helmet of my warrior toggled to "Always Hide."

When I logon, however, the helmet appears on my character, and only appears on this screen (not in game, since it's set to be hidden). This problem doesn't seem to appear with my ele, ranger, or monk (headgear stays hidden).

Ideas on how to fix this? It's bothersome.

Edit: problem appearing on my ranger now.

Yeah that happens to me sometimes, I also sometimes see one of my toons in pre-sear armor or no armor at all. Man did i freak out when that first happened. I wouldnt worry about it, it doesnt appear to cause any actaul bugs or problems.

Same here with my Warrior and Mesmer. Both have "Never display headwear" set and yet both show their relevant headwear in the login screen (Helm on Warrior and Mask on Mesmer). My Elementalist and Necromancer both display correctly (not showing their headgear).

Guess it's time to start submitting some bug reports to Anet.

I've noticed it, but not taken any notes ...

I figure there must be a pattern.
I don't have access to my gw to check myself, but you lot can help check it out

Post your character types, genders, helm status, and order.
eg
slot 1 - Female W/Mo, helm shows
slot 2 - Male R/E, no helm
etc.

Perhaps theres a pattern and we can clear it up.

It also seems to be dependant on whether you log out in an outpost or not. If I log out during a mission or quest the headgear seems to appear on my log in screen

My female Warrior and Ranger both show helm on login, and my lady monk's tattoos often revert to their default blue colour on the login screen too.
