[Bug] Can't use Drone Link Augmentors anymore despite having skills.

Since the patch deploment today I am unable to online my Drone Link Augmentor II's. The error message says that I'm unable to bring them online because they require Drone Avionics V, but I have that skill. (not anymore, see edit 2)

Edit: The skill log says "Drone Avionics - GM Skill Gift - Level 4". In my skills tab level 5 is still displayed and I know I had it since I've used Drone Link Augmentor II's on my ships since Kronos and before.

Edit 2: It seems that the skill actually went down from V to IV. Ingame it doesn't show, but Evemon and eveboard.com now show my Drone Avionics Skill at IV. I was able to use Drone Link Augmentor II's before, which require the skill at V. Was this change intend to happen? From what I read on the patch notes, the skill should've gone up if it still was below the level of Combat Drone Operations you had back at Kronos, or if you trained the skill in the meantime you should've gotten the SP remimbursed as free SP. It looks like the latter didn't happen, and instead it set the skill to whatever it was back at Kronos deployment even if you skilled it in the meantime, without reimbursing anything.

I can't confirm anything in-game, but I've got two "Drone Avionics showing on my eve-gate profile, both at lvl4. I had both Scout Drone Operation 5 and Combat Drone Operation 5.

I have confirmed that the skill was incorrectly lowered for some players. It was meant to be a bump. Currently under investigation and added to the known issues.

Same happened to me. I got the Medium/Light Drone Operation to 5, and I'm nearly positive that I had it at 5. Unfortunately, I lack proof.

Leave it to my one non-drone focused toon to have an issue.

went from V to IV on this character, an alt had V 75% trained, dropped to II with the patch and my skill queue stopped as a result.

Ditto. Dropped from 4 to 1. Was able to retrain to 2, but can't train to 3.
