⚫︎ Neople has alerted players of The First Berserker: Khazan to a critical bug linked to the Primeval Regression Orb. This issue arises when players reset their level while equipped with the pre-order “Hero’s Weapon and Armor” set, which could lead to permanent stat loss. The bug causes stat values to display incorrectly, impacts upgrade costs with the Lacrima resource, and may even drop stats below the intended minimum of 10. The pre-order gear's +5 stat bonus triggers incorrect recalculations when the Orb is used. Neople is actively developing a fix and advises players to steer clear of respecs while wearing this gear.
