I just started grinding the PVE map and i'm taking IM40 as I usually do. Today the AP cost is 8 for his yellow. My build is 3/5/5 right now. I went out and then checked to make sure and it is at 5 yellow and says cost is 6. This is my 3rd match in a row where it costs 8 ap. I'm up against Doom Hood Moonstone or some variant of that. Other characters powers are proper costs.

Wondering if this is just me.

    In a recent PvP I respeced to 5 yellow to feed Hulk Buster and it was working on 6 for me. I'm not doing that with this current PvE though so I can't speak to that.

    Platform: iOS

    Costs 8 for me as well.

    5/3/5 build, using Steam.

    5/5 Juggernaut has 10 AP cost on both powers. Also on Steam. I'd look at any character where increased levels gives decreased cost as being affected.

    Can you also post a SS of your IM character screen?

    3/5/5 should be 6 yellow and I verified that on my screen.

    but. 5/5/3 is 7 yellow ap. So while I'm sure your right about how you think your IM is covered, lets just reverify.

    Also do you have an 2nd duplicate IM by anychance? For some reason the game always want to try to sub in your **** duplicate for a high level champ.

    goodluck. take lots of SS and send a ticket in.

    I just saw the previous response. I'm on mobile and it looks like your SS is from steam?

    Maybe it's an incoming nerf

    Both of Juggernaut's abilities cost 10 now too.

    Can everyone post their platform in their post. Maybe this is a bug tied to steam?

    Magneto 2* is bugged the opposite way. Mine is built 3/5/5, but Magnetic Flux costs only 8 redflag.png to destroy 5x5 tiles. Iron Hammer costs only 6 blueflag.png to destroy 20 tiles on 2-turn CD.

    I can pretty confidently say that the issue is that it's looking up AP costs from rank 1 of the ability, regardless of the current ability rank.

    Probably this is a bug. System seeing this abilities at level1. This is why juggernauts abilitys cost 10 ap.if you can check blackwidow grey suits green. You must see a diffrence too if i'm rigth.
    Edit: I'm on android and i dont have any problem like this.

    If those costs are stuck at basic-level cost, check Black Widow powers to see if her costs stay at rank 1 cost for rank 5 power. Sniper Rifle, Pistol, and Aggressive Recon might all be buffed by the same bug.

    Is it possible this is a change with the R117 update? I see it sitting in my app store (iOS) and it says "Character balances" but nothing else. Well actually it says to go to d3go.com for more details but...there's nothing here icon_rolleyes.gif

    Also are the steam users reporting this on R117? It could be an R117 bug that affects all platforms, but most people haven't updated yet.

    I am a Steam user, updated to R117.

    My GSBW is built 5/3/5. Sniper Rifle costs only 15 greenflag.png . Pistol costs only 12 redflag.png . It confirms the theory.

    Just updated iOS to 117 on my phone. IM40 and Juggernaut power costs are still showing the same in the character pages, but when I play IM40, it does indeed show as 8ap for Recharge now (he's at 3/5/5). I already did the DDQ today, so no idea yet on Juggs.

    Gonna submit a ticket.

    Why was this moved to bugs and technical issues? For all we know this is a "balance" in R117. It could use some traffic in general discussion (since lets face it that's really all anyone looks at).

    I just tested 3* widow (5 3 5) and 2* magneto (3 5 5)
