⚫︎ Neople has issued a crucial warning to The First Berserker: Khazan players about a bug linked to the Primeval Regression Orb. This issue affects players who reset their level while equipped with the pre-order "Hero’s Weapon and Armor" set, potentially leading to permanent stat loss. The bug can cause stats to display incorrectly, alter upgrade costs using the Lacrima resource, and even drop stats below the minimum threshold of 10. Neople attributes this to the pre-order gear's flat +5 bonus to all stats, which leads to incorrect recalculations when the Orb is used. A fix is in development, and players are urged to avoid respecs while wearing the gear until the issue is resolved.
