⚫︎ Attention all players of The First Berserker: Khazan! Neople has issued an important warning regarding a critical bug associated with the Primeval Regression Orb. This issue affects players who reset their levels while wearing the pre-order “Hero’s Weapon and Armor” set, which can lead to permanent stat loss. The bug may cause stat values to display incorrectly, affect upgrade costs with the Lacrima resource, and even drop some 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 the Orb is used. A fix is in development, and players are urged to avoid respecs while wearing the pre-order gear until further notice.
