Serious bug with level 20 costume mission

Going to ask the "duh" questions first:
- You're not on a team, and
- Your settings are set to base(+0/x1) right?
Also, does it happen anywhere else?
(Meanwhile - checking to see if I have anyone who hasn't run that one yet.)
As a workaround, you can use the "Complete Mission" option for the Tailor mission. I always do this, because when I go to get the new costume slot, I want in NAO!

I was on a blaster at the time, in case archetype helps track down the bug. I was solo, but there were several other people in Icon. Maybe that has some effect. |
Anyway, lvl 20 blaster I have hasn't run it, so checking now... and yep, rather good size ambush. Abandoned, tried again - same. Two ink men, three enforcers and an ancestor spirit in the second. Set to 0/0.
For the first question, yes my difficulty was +0 x1, no team. And it happens with every AT also. I was on a stalker this time. The ambush is like 4 or 5 times the proper amount for a solo mission.
Been playing since release and it has always been that way for me. At least a group of 5 with at least 1 spirit or 1 sorcerer or both. Just did it the other night on a new pistols blaster. It actually used to be tougher back in the day before IO's came out. Back then you just had training enhancers and now by lvl 20 you can have generic IO's so you pack more of a punch.
Keeping it Brutal !!!!!!!!
I have also noticed this with the Steel Canyon tailor. As I recall, the last few times I ran the mission, the ambush size was 7 or 8 enemies (with me solo and set to +0/x1).
To be honest, though, I prefer it this way. It gets the hunting done faster. If I'm getting overwhelmed, I just duck back inside Icon.
Paragon City Search And Rescue
The Mentor Project
This used to spawn a few ambushes so it may be that they are all arriving at about the same time.
Mind of Gaia lvl 50 Defiant's first Mind/Storm 'troller.
Deadly Doc 50 Dark/Dark Corr
and lots more on Pinnacle,Union and Defiant

This. It's always been a fairly overwhelming ambush, especially when it's your first 20 and you're not ready for it.

There is a major bug with the mission for the Steel Canyon tailor. Every character I attempt this mission with has about 10 or 15 Tsoo spawn for the ambush and I die. Every time I do this, I am not in a team. This isn't supposed to happen. The same mission at the Rogue Isles tailor only spawns 2 button men.
