@EA_Ataashi Have been playing for my grandson trying to get him to a competitive level. Playing as a Heavy trooper using DC-15LE, achieved 2 upgrades - reduced recoil & improved Zoom. The problem is it won't let me select the improved zoom whilst reduced recoil is selected. I have all of the upgrades for this weapon when playing as myself and can select any combination of 2. Any ideas why I can't when playing as him?Whilst I am here, remember this?The 1st video was from late last year & the second was a few weeks ago. The artifact is created when you target and fire an Ion torpedo hitting another player who moved in front of you just as you fired or you have moved your aim hitting and object directly in front. It stays until you respawn. Just reminding you that this has not been fixed.

Hello @ggibb65 Weird things happen when you have equipped weapon attachments in arcade and then go into multiplayer. So I would suggest going into arcade, removing all attachments from all the weapons and try out if this issue still happens in the multiplayer! Fingers crossed! 🤞

Hey @ggibb65, thanks for the video on ability effect staying there, never seen it my self. :P

On the weapons part, do you have video or screenshot of not to be able to equip it the parts?

@EA_Atic Just found the video. It's a bit long winded but shows exactly what happens.
If I deselect the reduced recoil, I can select improved zoom but not both together. This is using my grandson's profile. My own gamer tag has all 3 upgrades and will let me select any combination i.e. Improved zoom + Explosive shot, Reduced recoil + explosive shot or reduced recoil + improved zoom.

@EA_Atic Whilst I am still posting repeating earlier problems, I have another one for you to follow up.
Had posted last about bad spawning positions that actually locked a player from continuing until he tried to respawn again. The position I am talking about is spawning in the air. This happened to me three times on Endor tonight and took me several goes to get out of it. I had to kill myself by continually firing my primary weapon ( it didn't show as firing but made a noise as if it was in the distance and the cooling bar was doing it's thing. Also showed my health declining. Here are 2 screenshots. I meant to take capture videos but pressed the wrong button.

And about the spawn issue @ggibb65, do you perhaps mean this older bug here?

This bug made the spawn screen somewhere in the air and you can actually still play but not having the view from the character...

I've posted a video in the thread, maybe it seems familiar.

@EA_Atic - just updating that the Ion torp artifact is not an occasional occurrence but happens every time. Was constant on Crait last night. People kept moving in front when I fired the torp.

@DYSPROssium - It is the same. If I had taken a video clip, it would have looked exactly the same as the one you had posted. I also had posted November last year on the issue on Naboo https://answers.ea.com/t5/Technical-Issues/I-got-stuck-on-Naboo/m-p/7143363#M21453. It apparently has not been addressed yet. Just one of those "get to later" bugs.

@DYSPROssiumDid what you said and fixed the problem. Have included some screenshots which explain better than I can. I will say however I don't know how The heavy in arcade had explosive shot when it had yet to be earned. The only explanation is that when I switched from my profile to my grandson's Arcade loadouts/abilities did not change from mine. Note: @EA_Atic
ARCADE:
GA - before
GA: after

@EA_Atic & @DYSPROssium You having solved the upgrade selection issue for me, can you solve this one.
After being able to select the DC15LE improved zoom, I found it basically useless. Why?? because the zoom reticule disappears around 90% of the time and you have to rely on the shot direction to aim. Have include a video to show on Hoth and a screenshot on Tatooine. Both were taken to show the problem. On hath you can see the normal reticule and no reticule with zoom pressed. Tatooine was taken with zoom on (no reticule).
