Intelligence BOFF pacifists, sorta

I've noticed on ground missions none of my Intelligence Boffs (obtained from the Delta Expansion pack) use their weapons and attack with them. I've tried different guns and melee weapons, with no change. They use their intel abilities but won't use anything else, so most of the time they stand there waiting for things to cooldown.

My 'regular' boffs use their guns just fine. So in a mixed party, my normal boffs use their weapons, as does my command boff, but not my intel guys.

Please merge if this question has already been brought up.

    I've also noticed its just my guys with only Intel training. So the delta pack guys that came with just intel abilities and untrained 'general tactical/sci/engie' abilities not only can they not train in their non-intelligence abilities, they don't use their guns.

    On the other hand, that hierarchy sci/intel guy that comes with skills in both 'out of the box' can train in either, AND he uses his gun. You go potato man!

    Can also confirm this issue, even if you equip them with melee weapons they simply raise their hands in combat and stand still.

    I'm tempted to dump them and reaquire/claim them from the store, but not sure if that would help. Anyone else try?

    My Romulan engineering/intelligence boff from the delta pack is able to use her weapon just fine, I confirmed this last night. I don't use many of them on the ground, but I'm almost certain my others work too.

    Since you mention training, I wonder if it could be related to this issue:

    Which apparently only affects boffs commissioned after the training changes went live. Could this "pacifist" issue be the same thing? I commissioned my intel boffs months ago.

    I've recently discovered the bug where intel Boffs won't use weapons on ground, it was on one of my Klingon captains.

    Good news is devs have verified the bug. (the training part) so hopefully if that resolves the ground bug I'm having with them gets resolved too
