⚫︎ Attention all players of The First Berserker: Khazan! Neople has issued a critical warning regarding a bug associated with the Primeval Regression Orb. This issue affects players who reset their level while equipped with the pre-order "Hero’s Weapon and Armor" set, which can lead to permanent stat loss. The bug causes stat values to display incorrectly, impacts upgrade costs using the Lacrima resource, and may even reduce stats below the minimum threshold of 10.
Neople has identified that the pre-order gear's flat +5 bonus to all stats causes incorrect recalculations when using the Orb. A fix is in the works, and players are urged to avoid respecs while wearing this gear until further notice.
