⚫︎ Attention all players! Neople has issued a critical alert regarding a 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 might face permanent stat loss. This glitch can mess with your stats display, affect upgrade costs using Lacrima, and even drop your stats below the minimum threshold of 10. The issue stems from the pre-order gear's flat +5 bonus to all stats, causing incorrect recalculations when the Orb is used. A fix is on the way, but until then, avoid respecs while equipped with the pre-order gear.
