Lore issue with Mara Vinci and Arbites

So realized something after completing the campaign (well like whats currently available) as Arbites class. There winds up being a weird lore loophole with Mara Vinci now. If playing as Arbites, she never gets exposed and turned into a servitor. She is still working at the commisary in full human form for me, meanwhile for the other classes she has become Atonement MV 1. I havent finished replaying the campaign as a reject to see at what mission they have her be revealed and changed for comparison but just seems like a weird oversight that that part is completely ignored for Arbites.

I know with Arbites not being rejects that much of that storyline wont fit for them, but like completely skipping over the fact there was a traitor on the Mourningstar and Rannick dealt with her (when playing as a class that primarily goes after traitors and whatnot) just kinda feels weird. After each mission (as Arbites) i kept expecting to see some mention of traitorous activity happening on the Mourningstar but nope…everything is SOP onboard for some reason. If its supposed to be that the Arbites arrive after that point in the story…then why is Mara Vinci even present on the Mourningstar for Arbites, should just immediately show as Atonement MV 1.

This might be a bug because in my finished Arbitrator campaign Mara is a servitor.

do you know if she was always a servitor? Also…ok this is weird…I just checked right now and she is a servitor…I swear she wasnt the last time i was on as my Arbites…maybe i had to log out and back in after finishing the campaign and it would “update”? shrug

I assume she turns into a servitor when you reach a certain (trust) level or campaign mission.
But I can’t say for sure because there was no reason to visit her as an Arbitrator.

If i remember correctly from my playthrough, she gets turned into a servitor once you reach trust level 30 AND complete the campaign.
I skipped the campaign on my arbitrator, so I didn’t get to see any cutscene with her, but as soon as i reached lvl 30, she was turned into a servitor.
I did the campaign on my lvl 30 veteran, and she was a servitor already even after starting the campaign, however at the end i got the cutscene when she gets shot.
So as i said i believe it depends on your trust level. Once it’s 30, you’ll see her changing.
