Beam rifle: "Lancer shot" makes "disintegrate" useless

[Photon]

For the beam rifle powerset, Lancer shot can spread the disintegrate EFFECT even if the enemy you hit does not have disintegrate on them, effectively making the disintegrate ATTACK useless. I assumed this was a  bug, but when I reported this in game with the /petition command, I was told to post this on the suggestions and feedback page, so I guess this is intentional. please look into changing the disintegrate attack into something useful please, like maybe give the disintegrate ATTACK a heavy DOT effect or something.

This was supposed to have been patched in this week's bug fix patch. I didn't notice it on my beam today but I went back to opening with disintegrate as soon as the fix was announced before I got too attached. Have you seen it still happening since Tuesday?

[Mr. Vee]

Just went and checked. Certainly not happening anymore on my defender - checked on grey, white and red conning enemies.

Huh, I swear I had it happen when I played my sentinel on wednesday, but when I go and try it today it does not happen anymore. I guess I was mistaken.

Were you perhaps teamed with another BR/ sentinel or blaster?  🙂
