So with the strong and stable patch 1.09 there's a known issue with XIV being coded as XV (https://www.reddit.com/r/MECoOp/comments/6lvrom/is_anyone_receiving_the_same_items_repeatedly_in/).

That makes sense that you'd get a visual bug where you see XV twice. However, in the new biower spirit of doubling down on bullshit, I got the krogard XV 4 times in a row. Exited and returned, and got krogard XV again. Next pack, krogard XVI, and subsequently he's been ranking normally.

Then I got asari sentinel XV 4 times in a row.

I don't know if it's a visual bug and actually now they have multiple numbers all coded as XV, so in actual fact ranks XI - XV of my krogard all looked like XV, because I wasn't really paying attention before.

Anyone else seeing this, and if so, is it just another visual bug due to strong and stable coding? Is it known (khaleesi)?

Edit: I'm on PC

It's probably down to the potato's data refresh rate which iirc is around the same as Tectonic Drift and amplified by visual scatter caused by excessive psychedelic representation

I didn't record anything, but on ps4 my commons completed in the correct number of cards. (I just glanced at nr of bronze cards and counted those)

I don't think it happened at all with my commons but I didn't record so my claim is WORTHLESS

Not really, lol. I mean reports of this bug are so all over the place that anecdotes are not really helpful. I don't know why I even bothered to comment that with no proof, tbh.

No, eye-witness testimonies are what alerted us to this problem. Then some of the more OCD among us can record stuff and see if we can reproduce the bug.

I will be grinding Uncommons soon, we'll see if it happens on those characters.

Then Rares.

OK, I am an idiot and don't know how I missed these before.

I can confirm this happened to me too on XB1. See clip:

xboxclips.com/JRandall0308/e3800979-6136-4aff-bc35-21cc6c294657

Timestamps

~0:29 Human Male Infiltrator XIII (13) received

~0:40 Human Male Infiltrator XV (15) received in next pack -- skipped rank XIV (14)

~1:08 Human Male Infiltrator XV (15) received again

Another example, same clip:

~1:17 Human Male Engineer XV (15)

~2:05 Human Male Engineer XV (15) again

~2:23 Human Male Engineer XVI (16)

There's a bug report on EA Answers HQ, may as well 'Me Too' it:

Eye-witness testimony is the start of the scientific process, sure. We notice things with our eyes. But scientific validation? Eye-witness is the lowest form of evidence. It's ironic that we considering it the second-highest form in the legal system (cameras probably carry more credibility, but only just). Especially with what we know these days about the malleability of memory.

On PS4, every single character I have gotten to XIV showed as XV in game. I cross-checked vs my Apex app character ranks to make sure. It shows correct level in app btw. I then received XV card, followed by XVI for cards that have gotten that high. So, for me, it has been a visual bug and everything is what it should be. Hopefully, I've been helpful and not a nuisance.

I can validate your statement, and proclaim, that you have been helpful. Now, go away before you do become a nuisance

This has been my experience as well ( for every one I checked).

The only problem we have is posters claiming they got like 8 rank XV cards for one class. Not that I outright deny the truth of that claim, but it's the one we really need evidence of.
