Missing Abilities - Epidemic :-O

Hey guys,

Looks like many classes are missing base abilities, not just Commandos and their probe.

My Jedi Shadow is missing both Project and Double Strike, which are base-class Consular abilities - not Shadow or discipline-specific.

I also have guildmates who are missing base abilities on Mercenaries (power shot, sweeping blasters, unload) , Sorcerers (lightning strike) and Warriors (vicious slash, force scream).

My Shadow has the "Infiltration" discipline. If I switch to "Serenity" these base abilities return. If I switch back to Infiltration, they disappear again.

My Shadow is level 65, has completed all nine chapters of KotFE, and has visited his trainer. The missing abilities are not just gone from the place on the hotbar,

they have also completely disappeared from the ability list window.

Just wanted to make sure it was known that this was a widespread issue, not just Commandos - luckily their ability was fixed so there must be hope! :D

Anyone else having similar issues??

Thanks for your time!!

    @Alarion_Surana the classes were rebalanced and some disciplines lost abilities while others were largely unaffected. Almost all of these were intentional changes by Bioware.  The only class that I've seen that has truly lost an ability to a bug is the trooper commando class where he unintentionally lost his surgical probe after patch 4.0a went live.

    Hey folks,

    After investigation, we found an issue with patch distribution that occurred during maintenance this morning. Some players will be getting a new patch later this evening (roughly 6-8 hours from now). There will be no downtime associated with this, and you will be able to play the game up until that point. Players using the streaming client will not download anything further.

    Some of you have noticed that there are certain fixes that are listed in the Patch Notes that only some players have. Tonight’s patch will resolve that issue and ensure that all the fixes in the patch reach everyone.

    Thanks!
