In the first essential node (Tendrils everywhere) I choose the loaners, no need to waste my own. And the fight starts without Steve Rogers??? Tried three times always the same. Edit: If I pick my own Steve, he joins the battle. Weird! (This is on steam btw)

    I noticed this with Moonstone; I don't have her rostered at the moment, and what I've noticed is that if I tap her icon she's not in the battle, but if I just leave it alone (which is fine, since it's defaulting to the loaner), she's there.

    In these nodes I usually tap them all to get the loaners. Thats whats wrong I guess.

    Similar situation here.  I tapped all the loaners to save health packs.  Then the fight started and I only had moonstone to beat the 3 baddies.  Made for a more challenging fight, but bleh.

    All loaners for me too, no Moonstone.

    What's wrong with the MM and the Capn Steve loaner? Please resolve this bug as I've already put in a ticket..

    Yeah, it was strange with no Cap and just Moonstone and Carol.

    The first time I played that node (using all loaners), Cap was missing.  I just had Moonstone and Capt. Marvel.

    The second time, I played that node (on a different device, again using all loaners), now Capt. Marvel is missing (I only have Cap America and Moonstone).

    In the Time Square sub, I only had Captain America.  In the Empire State Building sub, now I only have Captain Marvel.  This is a weird one...

    Keeps happening to me too. They've all disappeared at one time or another. Very annoying.

    If you're using all loaners, there's no penalty for retreating.

    Can you retreat and retry the node until you have all three?

    Nope.  It's repeateable for me.  Once one is missing, that same one is always missing when I re-enter that same node.

    NOTE: This is ONLY for loaner toons.  If I take my rostered ones, they work just fine (but why would I want to do that?)
    NOTE2: I am doing SHIELD Clearance Level 9 (the new one with a required 5* node).  I can't speak as to whether or not this is happening at other clearance levels.

    My *GUESS* as to why this is happening is that the 5* toon is considered "required" but isn't selectable.  So when the match starts, it puts in a blank for that toon.

    Just a guess.

    But it happens sometimes and not others. Or I can back out and go back in again but that works sometimes and not others as well. It's very inconsistent.

    If the loaner doesn't show up on the boost selection screen, you can try going back one screen, and switch from the loaner back to your toon then back to the loaner. I was able to get all three to show up by doing that. Took a couple tries though. Screenshots here:

    Are the DEVs going to respond to this....

    No. But Brigby or another mod might. I hope they at least change the title of the post to more accurately reflect the issue.

    SCL 8 didn't want to try 9 yet, Loaner Moonstone never arrives, my own C4rol rarely shows up. I usually use all the loaners, so no need to waste health packs, but when I walked into a fight with ONLY loaner C4rol i used my own, and walked in with just supersoldier and moonstone. Getting a little annoyed. Is there a fix?

    Did you try the fix I detailed two posts above yours? It worked for me every time I had the bug crop up.
