So, I was playing through the Tomb of Giants wielding my Zweihander, Leeroy invades me as usual. I use my Zweihander's R2 attack to smash Leeroy to the ground, then hit him again with R2 which kills him. However, he immediately vanishes, no death animation or anything. Only the particle effect. He leaves behind his bloodstain but no Grant or Sanctus. I found this weird, but I didn't think about it too much, I wasn't planning on using those items anyways.
Later I get to Nito's, kill him, blablabla. Obviously Leeroy's armor isn't present yet, I didn't reload or warp or anything yet. Anyways, I come back the next day after some sleep and stuff, warp back to Nito's, but the armor still isn't there!
So, bugged Leeroy? Or is the Zweihander to blame? This isn't the first time enemies immediately vanished after killing them in this particular way. It just never caused any problems with loot for me before.
