Chosen appearing on non retaliation missions AFTER being killed!

[kerrbeross]

I just killed the chosen hunter and the next Security Breach I went on (they shouldn't spawn in security breaches that I'm aware) He spawns in and all of the dialogue with him and bradford is as if this is the first time I've ever seen him.

Other than cosmetic mods the only additionals I have to LWOTC are recommended ones. list attached. Save attached of the mission in question with the chosen hunter present.

additionally, right after I killed the chosen hunter I lost the ability to "review chosen information" on the avenger, the button prompt just disappeared. This coincided with the hunter starting to show up on regular missions, I'm 2/2 for him showing up now.

I want to report this one as well. It is happening with the Hunter, easy difficulty level, save attached. After killing him, he showed up in a haven retaliation and also in the gate mission. Some additional info - I had never actually encountered him before his base mission - his area was exposed but found his base and attacked it before ever having seen him before (although he would say things from time to time, e.g. covert missions blown).

I had already taken care of the Assassin but she never showed up after her base mission like the hunter does. But unlike the Hunter she had shown up on missions prior to her base mission.

Besides the recommended mods, I just have a few cosmetic ones. Thanks.

Btw as a follow up this seemed to only happen once. I had backed up my save (right after killing hunter) and after getting him in a security breach I went back to that save then got him on the next mission which was a network tower. I killed him there and didn't see him ever again after that, although I finished the campaign probably 5-6 missions later. My thought is that the issue resolved either when I finished researching his weapons, or when the next month supply drop/chosen update happened.

I'll echo that this seems of a limited duration - in my case the Hunter showed up for two additional missions after his base attack, but as soon as I researched his weapons, he didn't appear again. And then at month end it came up he was defeated and I haven't seen him sense.

I never had this happen to me, but from these comments it seems like the problem lies within mission generation. The Chosen seem to appear on missions that were generated (not necessarily detected, but already generated) before they were killed

[Pike1372]

That makes sense as he only showed up on a few missions after his death. Perhaps the weapons research and/or the end-of-month report was secondary. And perhaps the other issue of not ever encountering him before his base mission was the cause (obviously speculating here).

Although that doesn't explain why he would be in missions he should never be in (i.e. the psi gate one).

[kerrbeross]

Right in both cases I encountered him after his death, they were missions chosen would never spawn on.

Also encountered this bug(?) - killed chosen warlock, went on to do blacksite which was in his territory, now he's here. Tempted to use console commands to delete him / transport him into the open so I can kill him because I did not plan on encountering him when equipping squad
