Power Ring Hunter bug

I've noticed this issue for both heroes and villains starting around GU33 referring to the "Power Ring Hunter" mission outside Metro City Hall during the Dying of the Light, Pt 1 story arc. When knocking out enemy light NPC's, the mission states you need to pick up their ring and carry it to the node. Repeat for 10 times.

Since GU33 (I think) the rings sometimes have no execution symbol and you can't pick them up. So far I haven't been able to pick out any discernible pattern as to why some are executable and others are not. I have 12 alts, 6 of which I've built to lvl 30 within the past few months, so this recently tested on at least 6 different characters that are either villain or hero.

Are devs aware of this issue and is there a fix in? Please chime in if anyone else has seen the same thing.

When doing the mission on a alt I was only able to pick them up when they were up in the air. :/

Had the same problem with two villains on the PS3 side and I noticed others around me having the same trouble. Been going for me for three days now.

I started a thread on this issue in Jan (https://forums.station.sony.com/dcuo/index.php?threads/power-ring-hunter.187176/) and someone has recently commented on that thread saying it is getting fixed with the next GU

Exactly, thanks for posting the GU36 note

Just simply knock them up into the air with a weapon combo right before you kill them, then you can grab them. You cannot pick the rings up if they are killed on the ground. Good luck.
