This just happened to me. I'm at QR4 and I left Mantri and Ursa in the center while I went and did some Rune Foraging for a bit. When I came back and got them I noticed Mantri didn't have his shield or sword out. So, I go into his inventory and hit the equip button and nothing is dropped.
I had him equipped with a longsword and the dermal. Thinking that it's weird that his equipment just disappeared. So, I go to making him another longsword and a super heater shield. Hit the "equip" button and he drops his original gear!!! Make him pick them back up and hit the "equip" button again and he equips the longsword, but now I get a message saying "Mantri can't equip a shield with this weapon" or something close to that. It is a one-handed weapon and he had these things equipped before. Any suggestions? He can't equip the new shield I made for him either.

Had this problem myself a while back and was given the good advice of emptying inventory of all weapons and shields then uneqip. Now place the sword and shield that you want to equip in the inventory and equip them. There is a conflict between two-handed weapons and shields which prevents a shield being equipped even if you only have a single-handed weapon equipped. Don't know what causes the weapons not to show up even though they are equipped, maybe he just gets tired of holding them while he's waiting for you to come back. ;D

It is a one-handed weapon and he had these things equipped before. Any suggestions? He can't equip the new shield I made for him either. First, you couldn't see his weapons because he didn't have them selected. This can happen for several reasons, but the most common one is that you were in an NIS. All you have to do is select him and click the 'melee select' button ('1', by default), and the weapons will reappear in his hand. They will also reappear if he sees an enemy and attacks. Second, when you made him drop his weapons, he couldn't equip the shield again likely because he had a weapon in his inventory that was preventing it from being equipped. To make sure Mantri equips the exact weapon and shield you want him to equip, have that weapon and shield be the only weapon and shield in his inventory. Hope this helps.

When this happens to me 1st time.I just thought that may be Mantri can be treated as player not as packmules.So Mantri can have slots for melee,range,talent,mudane also.So I just press "Q" button in my keyboard(the shortcut key of changing skill) and immediately his weapons appears.Nothing dropped because melee is not selected.But on equiping different weapons melee is automatically selected and previous weapons dropped.

Thanks, I emptied all my weapons and shields then had him equip them again and that worked! I was having visions of having to restart the game
