⚫︎ Attention all players! Neople has issued an important alert regarding a critical bug linked to the Primeval Regression Orb in The First Berserker: Khazan. If you reset your level while wearing the pre-order "Hero's Weapon and Armor" set, you could face permanent stat loss. This issue affects stat displays on the status screen, increases upgrade costs using the Lacrima resource, and can even drop some stats below the minimum threshold of 10. The pre-order gear adds a flat +5 bonus to all stats, which causes these issues if the Orb is used while the bonus is active. A fix is in the works, so avoid respecs with this gear until then.
