Mission shows wrong level?


Master-Blade

 

Posted

Hello,
Im not sure if this bug has been posted yet... but, i have a lvl 28 character and sometimes her missions show as lvl 29 in the mission window. And then if i zone, or log off city of heroes and log back on, her missions will change back to the correct lvl, lvl 28. I have noticed this seems to happen when i change the Challenge Level of her missions. (doesnt matter if i make the challenge lvl less or more, it still will show her missions as lvl 29.)Anyone have any information on this bug?

Or is this not a bug, and there is just a new additional way of showing the Challenge Level of your missions now?

Edit: Also, i noticed once it happened when i entered the mission, the mission would be lvl 28, i would enter the mission and it would show as 29, exit and it would be lvl 28 again. This is not always the case though...mission have showed the wrong lvl when i have not yet entered the mission. I often have to reset the mission for the lvl to show correctly at all times.

The base level of the mission should be your own level (it may jump up if you are close to leveling).

Yes, the lvl may change depending on your challenge setting once the instance is actually loaded. That does not mean you are running a lvl 29 mission on Rugged, it just means that the Rugged setting bumped your lvl 28 foes up to lvl 29.

Viewing the mission info while not inside the mission should always show the base value because there is always the possibility of changing your challenge setting and resetting the mission.

As far as I know, it's working as designed. I've noticed it doing that since the first day that info was added.

Ok, so it is ok for the level of the mission (the number in parenthesis) to show higher than your characters actual level, if you have turned up the Challenge Level?

Correct, but it should only show the higher level once inside the mission, not beforehand.

Alright, thanks! Looking more closely I see that it only shows the higher level once inside the mission.
