Power Sword Radial Menu Issue

Power sword color variants not consistently showing in radial menu. Usually the only option is to turn off color effect and turn back on same color.

    Sadly, I have not, (especially when I don't have the Power Sword myself). Hopefully Respawn can get it fixed soon!

    A bit of an update, (sadly, no solutions yet):

    I've recently gotten Heirloom Shards and had crafted the Power Sword and its variants, and I've noticed:

    • If you enter a match with the base Power Sword equipped, you can pick which color variant you want to switch to, (while still being able to use the other color variants in that same match).
    • If you end a match, (either by winning, losing, or by leaving), with a color variant selected, that color will become applied to the Power Sword, (which is weird as I thought it would "reset" back to what I had equipped before entering the match).


    Hopefully it gets changed to where whichever version is selected in the lobby is the version that remains when returning back from matches and that you can use all 3 variants in any given match regardless of which version is equipped when you load into the match.

    Having the same issue. Anyone found a solution?

    Madguts101​ The only "solution" I've found was to get knocked down, (or respawned), at least once during a match and then suddenly you can use the other color variants, (which makes no sense), or enter the match while the base version of the Power Sword is selected, (although if you pick a color and die, you have to manually switch it back for some reason).

    At least, that's what I've noticed with the Power Sword so far since I've gotten it. Overall, its left to Respawn to fix and from what I've heard, they are aware of it, but I don't know the ETA.

    I am having the EXACT same problem with not being able to switch colors on the sword occasionally even though I own all the color variants. Just like you, I am able to switch between them at first, and then it will just stop working after one or a few matches. This is frustrating because I like matching the color to whatever Legend skin I'm using from among my equipped favorites. People shell out hundreds of dollars for these heirlooms, and to have them not work right is . . . yeah :/ you can imagine my disappointment.
