Not sure if "bug" or "WAI," but ... Reinforcement summons, level and abilities at lvl 1.

[Greycat]

This is *niche.* This is *painfully* niche, and solely as a result of me screwing around, and then looking into things more.  So I wouldn't even call this a priority unless it happens to be affecting something else more important. Hell, let's just call it a "quirk I'm bringing up."

 

P2W reinforcement - in this case, PPD reinforcement. 500k.

Summon even as a level 1: comes in at level 10 minimum. (Which, itself...)

Summon exemped down in a normal mission to level 1-2: Comes in as a level 10.

 

Now, no, that's not the bug I'm reporting, since it's still (arguably) useful, and given the limited abilities (a blast, maybe two, and a melee attack.) HOWEVER:

Purely for the hell of it (and about 2 bars worth of XP,) I took a lvl 34 character into AE. Mostly from curiosity, wanted to see one of the "bads" maps ("xp for any AT," this being the bbq map, gets a little low-level boost for single digit characters) got me at that level.  Drops me down to level 1, capped there, as expected. Since I'm also being a touch impatient, I dropped the reinforcement as well.

 

In *this instance,* it summons at level 1 (I'm assuming due to the level lock on the AE.) Not a problem, right? Well, at level 1, the reinforcement does *nothing.* Walks around, takes hits sure, but has exactly zero attacks it uses. It will wander around, take hits, and the closest thing it does to attacking is give a dumb look at the enemy.  Doesn't even have brawl.

 

Wouldnt' be an issue other than the 500k - but again, *so niche* of an issue...
