Several times now I have eliminated a HVT while exploring various Patrol Zones throughout the game (most recently in the EDZ), and when they are defeated, it appears that they drop a chest and it gives the sound cue of a chest dropping, but moments later (approximately 1-3 seconds) the chest just disappears, before I am able to open it and collect the loot. I know that sometimes these chests magically shift a short distance in any direction from where the HVT was defeated for whatever reason, but I look all over the surrounding vicinity and it is nowhere to be found. I’m not sure what’s going on here, and I’ve been noticing more lag lately, too. I just thought I would bring this up in case anyone else was experiencing anything similar.

Just an idea but maybe try a ghost with treasure hunter or the Hunter class with the improved radar or Hunter with Knucklehead Radar or something else that will show chests on the radar or at least highlight their position then if it happens again and it's simply that the chest is "hidden" then this would help to locate it. Or it may prove (by only being on the radar for a few seconds) that it really is disappearing.
