Issue Description (Required):

Every time I have attempted to play a mission thus far, the game crashes to desktop mid-mission within 5-10 minutes. The last 2 crashes were in the middle of playing the new Sefoni trial mode. This is on the PC Microsoft Store (Gamepass) version of the game.

The last 2 crash messages (only 1 attached, didn’t screencap the first one), labels the issue a [Script Error], seemingly to do with a player buff. This was from playing Sefoni’s new mode in the Nightmares & Visions update. Logs included.

I also crashed out within 5 minutes when attempting to just play a normal matchmaking mission.

Steps to Reproduce (Required):

Just playing any mission seems enough for me to run into a CTD. The frequency is high enough that I don’t intend to try and continue playing until some fixes go in.
