Retrain, our Toons, AGAIN?

I recently checked my characters, and had to add back in some of active traits and having to redo my loadouts. But, then, I looked skills and saw “Skills Invalid” with the “Retrain” button ready to go. I already had to do this a month ago, back in October 14th of this year. Everything is properly selected, etc. So, do we really have to perform the task retraining all of our characters' skills, AGAIN? I know for me, this is at least over an hours worth of work. Is there a way you can stop this from happening?

Quite illogical.
I hate to admit this, but this person has a point. If want people to spend money on the game, you have to step up with positive experiences, otherwise, it doesn't build confidence in your ability to carry the game. Adding content is great, but adding bugs is another, and introducing the same but, is another.
But to me it seems you don't actually need to retrain anything. It has said (and still says) 'skills invalid' on my toons for weeks, and I've just ignored it.

Okay, that's helpful. Appreciate it.
But, with that said; What happens when it does have an affect on our toons and we have multiple characters that we have to go back and fix? Will it be problematic? Isn't just better for us to report it now, so that we don't have this issue come back? From my perspective, it's why this is called a bug report, as it is better that they fix it now and avoid the issue in future so it doesn't become an problem. So, let's notice it, and let them know.
Agreed!
Sorry, I cannot say for sure. I would post that as a question to the board, and see if others can confirm.
Are you 100% sure about that? Because, Cryptic didn't announce it.
When reading the original post, and the responses, did you see that we already retrained back in October 14th, roughly a month ago. So, what is the necessity of this change? When you think of this way, there is no reason for it. If it ends up affecting users in the future, it could be fixed now. But, it would be helpful to know if it was intentional and that someone announce it, so that we know what's up.
I've been playing for years, as well. So, this is helpful in that you can understand what a hassle this can be when you're playing several toons, or more. Especially, considering it happened twice, within a month. Glad that we cleared that up.
Oh don't get me wrong, it's good that you're reporting it.
I'm just saying what I said for people who don't want to go through the hassle of retraining all their toons. It may be worth it to wait until they can confirm that you don't have to do it all again next week.

So make sure you save your current load out, it shouldn't say 'sunaved changes' between brackets before you change maps.

I just tried this on one of my toons that said "invalid skills". I went into a patrol to look at the ship's stats for max hull, max shield, and shield regen. They were identical so it looks like skills allocated in the skill tree are still active even though it says "invalid skills".
