Klingon Recruit Reward: Purple Bridge Officer changed to Blue

edited March 2021 in PS4 Gameplay Bug Reports
The thread title has the info, but to expand on it:
The Klingon Recruit Reward for "Hunter's Instinct: 50 Ambush Kills" is a Purple 'Very Rare' Bridge Officer.

However, as with all those purple bridge officers that have only one 'Superior' trait (all Gorn, some Nausicaan, some Lethean, most Saurian, etc.), she changes to a Blue quality Bridge Officer when commissioned.

It's quite disappointing that, yet again, we see a bug that has existed within the game from the beginning going unfixed or even acknowledged.
It riles up my Hunter's Instinct...

It would also be nice if she was reclaimable from the Temporal Agent like the Delta Recruit Phiotonic Bridge Officer.

    I can confirm this happening. And if it helps any, I recorded when it happened to me.

    The Rarity doesn't affect it's stats. It's a quirk of the system.
    "You don't want to patrol!? You don't want to escort!? You don't want to defend the Federation's Starbases!? Then why are you flying my Starships!? If you were a Klingon you'd be killed on the spot, but lucky for you.....you WERE in Starfleet. Let's see how New Zealand Penal Colony suits you." Adm A. Necheyev.

    The rarity won't affect it if it is the same "version" of the ability, yes. For example a Rare with Superior Romulan Operative will have the same bonus from Superior Romulan Operative as a Very Rare. However, when changing from Very Rare to Rare in the case of the KDF Recruit Reward Bridge Officer, it drops the Space Warfare Specialist down to Basic Space Warfare Specialist, which would make a difference according to the wiki.

    its a very rare boff, that becomes blue, when recruited - this needs a fix!
    ..same as the gorn boff..

    Post videos of the bug, provide details on why it matters... it gets fixed. You're welcome.
    Resolved an issue with the Bridge Officer reward from Klingon Recruitment causing it to be Rare instead of Very Rare. If you already claimed a Rare version, head to your Temporal Agent to reclaim the reward for a Very Rare version. You'll have to dismiss the Rare version to do so."

    Same thing happened to me, clipped it and sent it to support days ago, pretty sure support doesn't care since they never replied...

    Well, they fixed it and added a reclaim to the PC version of the game.
    I'm guessing that will also come to us on consoles either this week, or in the patch that comes after...
