Can’t activate Human Torch’s pre-fight ability in AQ

Cbel

Device: iPhone X

Device Operating System: iOS 12.2
Mobile Carrier: Verizon

Cellular or WiFi: WiFi
Game version: 22.2.1

Game Mode: Alliance Quest
Champions Affected: 4* human torch 5/50 sig 99
Active Boosts: None
Description of the Issue: Trying to activate human torch’s Pre-fight ability. I kept pushing the button but it would never activate. It acted like it was registering the touch but would never actually activate. I entered fight to see if it was activating but not looking like it, but it wasn’t activating. I can get to the pre-fight abilities window, but the activate button there is what is not accepting input like normal. It works fine in all other game modes that from what I can tell (haven’t tried war).

Screenshot or Video: I have a video if anyone can tell me how to provide it (seems like I can only attach photos or non-video files here).

Not sure what you are referring to, unless I missed something. That's not what I'm describing here (see video above).

There's an issue with his Pre-Fight Feature, that they plan on having a fix for in the next Update on April 22nd.

Unless it's just not available for AQ and AW. Could be that.

Thanks for reporting this! We'll get eyes on it and once I have an update I'll let you know.

Before you grind or (more likely) spend on Human Torch on Thursday when his arena/crystals start, be aware that his most useful ability—his pre-fight ability to start in flame on mode—does not work.

Video evidence...

You tube friend, I am not connecting to your icloud.

For one thing, there is an issue with the Ability that will be fixed in the next Update. For another, it's unclear whether you can use it in AQ and AW. Could be disabled for those modes.

rjancasz

For one thing, if it can’t be used in AQ or AW, that’s something they should have disclosed before they started selling his crystals. For another, the fix coming with 23.0 has nothing to do with this bug.

I don't know if you can or not. I could see it being a possibility is all. As far as the issue goes, it's possible it's not working at all until the Patch.

rjancasz

Great. I was posting in hopes of getting a response from someone who did know and who was not just guessing at stuff.

GroundedWisdom

You're not the first to post asking. I'm looking at the information that's provided so far, and considering possibilities. I was trying to help. Feel free to be rude to someone else.

Can you please advise. His arena starts tomorrow, as do his crystals. Players should have as much information as possible before they expend time, effort, in-game resources, and money on a new champ.

Kabam Lyra

Thank you all for the information. We are looking into this and plan to have a resolution soon!

Hope this gets fixed soon...

Hey everyone!

This should be fixed and good to go. If anyone sees issues with it still, please let us know.
