Signature arcs, Alignments, and Hero/Vill slayer badges

[Razor Cure]

I was going to do this a a Bug Report, but it technically isn't one.

 

Every week I run the first Signature arc on toons, as it is a super quick 20 merits. I did it today and discovered some odd things.

 

 

On a Vigilante, killing Echnida at the end (who is a safeeguard 'villain') awards progress on the Villain Disrupter badge. The badge text for which clearly states;

  Defeat 25 Generic or Sig villains is safeguard missions to earn this badge.

 

I had never noticed this before, but got the badge today. Nice! You get the badge even though it is totally NOT a safeguard mission.

Naturally, I then wanted to see if doing the same on a Rogue would give progress to hero Slayer (as that is arguably more important, as you can unlock the Mayhems, and hence an accolade).

 

So I jumped on a rogue, ran the arc, killing SNowmaiden and Strongheart (BOTH of whom appear as mayhem heroes). And yet...no progress on the Hero Slayer. Looking at the badge text, that DOES say '25 Signature Heroes' so I can see why it doesn't count.

But it totally should! Or make the Villain badge only sig heroes. Having them different, for essentially the same task, is just silly and unfair.

+1 for making Snowmaiden and Strongheart count towards the badge.
