Console player here.
We'll get mod 11.5 just in a few days and I was really looking forward to trying loadouts until I found out yesterday that they have a very annoying bug (
@thefabricant reported it), not sure if I understood well what it was about but it seems that kind of renders them unusable.
The question are then, pc guys, how often is that bug happening? Is there any way to avoid that glitch and if so how? Should I refrain from trying loadouts out until the bug gets patched in mod 39 or so?
@terramak this is why
@thefabricant 's feedback shouldn't be ignored, whatever preview build had that bug shouldn't have made its way to live, it costs zen to buy extra slots for a feature that doesn't even work half decently if at all.

I've had one particular DO loadout claim to be in in an invalid state a few times randomly (usually after unlocking a boon or getting power point). But then after a patch or some time later it unbugged itself. Like 2, maybe 3 times.
Oh and when I first got the loadouts I had the random respecs on my DC for maybe 3 times. My suggestion is to put 1 point into a power/feat, commit, and switch instances or move to a different map to see if it resets you.
I don't think it's so bad that I would recommend staying away though. For certain classes, loadouts are so amazing that it's worth putting up with the glitchiness. They are somewhat reasonably priced too (with coupons etc.) so you can save up and buy a few spares just in case one gets buggy for a while :X

A combination of using a previously obtained free respec and moving maps after spending points finally got it working. So that's what I recommend. Spend a few points, change maps and check.
Thank you very much for the feedback! Wow, the loadouts problem is far worse and annoying that I thought it'd be
It's possible that the bug is tied to having free respecs pending (not everyone was effected).
It's also not so bad after you've got everything sorted. It's just getting it set up and making it stick is finnicky, but then it's OK... but yeah I wish it was even more stable
