Alleged retroactive progress mission broken; glitch or design?

Mission 53 from the 6th group of missions is "Doom Tower Clear all 12 Secret Rooms of the Doom Tower on Normal". This mission had been marked as completed for me during the previous DT rotation and according to Ayumilove (I know it's not official but it is quite credible), it is supposed to be retroactive. Then I had to wait for Barb FC to open for the related mission and in the mid-time, DT has been reset and the mission was not marked as completed anymore. Is this the way it is designed or is it some glitch affecting my account only?

Cheers, Strangiii

For others who will check this, this information was incorrect, this mission is not retroactive, and must be completed when it acatully becomes available.

From what it sounds like to me, the mission checks the current status of all secret rooms as of now, regardless of whether it is the current active mission or not.  In other words, when you open the mission section it will check the doom tower rooms and be either complete or incomplete, depending on whether the secret rooms are done.

Essentially, it means it can be done ahead of time and therefore be complete straight away once you get there as long as doom tower doesn't reset beforehand, but if doom tower does reset then the current completed secret room count is back to 0 and the mission is no longer complete.  I guess the only issue is that once it is complete the game doesn't flag it as done and no longer needing to check DT status.

As a result, it is kind of retroactive, but kind of not.

This is exactly the case.
