⚫︎ Attention all players! Neople has issued a crucial warning about a bug related to the Primeval Regression Orb in The First Berserker: Khazan. If you reset your level while equipped with the pre-order "Hero’s Weapon and Armor" set, you may experience permanent stat loss. This bug can cause incorrect stat display on the status screen, affect upgrade costs using Lacrima, and even reduce stats below the minimum threshold of 10. The issue stems from the pre-order gear's flat +5 stat bonus, which leads to miscalculations when using the Orb. Neople is actively working on a fix, and players are advised to avoid respecs until further notice.
