⚫︎ Attention, players of The First Berserker: Khazan! Neople has issued a critical warning about a bug associated with the Primeval Regression Orb. This issue may cause permanent stat loss if you reset your level while wearing the pre-order “Hero’s Weapon and Armor” set. The bug can lead to incorrect stat displays on your status screen, affect upgrade costs using the Lacrima resource, and even reduce some stats below the minimum threshold of 10.
The bug stems from the pre-order gear's flat +5 bonus to all stats, causing incorrect recalculations upon using the Orb. Neople is actively working on a fix and advises players to avoid respecs while wearing this gear until the issue is resolved.
