⚫︎ Neople has issued a critical warning to players of The First Berserker: Khazan about a bug related to the Primeval Regression Orb. This glitch affects players who reset their level while equipped with the pre-order “Hero’s Weapon and Armor” set, leading to potential permanent stat loss. The bug causes stat values to be misrepresented on the status screen, affects Lacrima resource upgrade costs, and may reduce stats below the minimum threshold of 10.
Neople clarifies that the pre-order gear provides a flat +5 bonus to all stats, which can cause incorrect recalculations when the Orb is used. A fix is in development, and players are urged to avoid respecs while wearing this gear.
