Phantom Skill Points issue

1. Many times during my first four hours of the game I earned passive points that I could not allocate. I was sitting on two when I ascended to loch. I picked two for the lich which left me two. I think. It shows I have two at the top when I go to my passive tree. But it doesn’t allow me to use the button to assign them. The button doesn’t appear. Either it’s a graphical error or I’m missing points I should have.

2. When I earn skill points I can’t assign the news ones without teleporting back to “town”. Not sure why, it’s intermittent aswell. Sometimes (rarely) I can assign the new point. Most times not.

I think the ghost points are just a visual bug, I had it happen right when I ascended, and it's exactly two points so I'm guessing it's just not updating that you've allocated the ascendancy passives. Definitely annoying, though.
Confirming the same behavior. On Ps5. I made a post after missing this one...
When I ascended I used the skill points immediately, before the ascension animation played, and now have two 'imaginary' points available. GGG fix this visual bug please.
Confirming ghost points, however im not sure that my tactician ascendancy points have registered. Ive taken the 20% chance to pin node, havent seen any sign of pin debuff being applied to any target. Looks like something possibly bigger than a graphical glitch.

+1 to this post for awareness. it's happening on ps5 and xbox series x i played on both.

oracle on xbox, spiritwalker on ps5 so ascendancy choice doesnt seem to matter
