Hermesia quest combat does not start at the objective
The October 16 Known Issues list says combat may not begin at a specific objective during [Hermesia] Key to the Inner Castle. Pearl Abyss’s workaround is to move a little farther around that objective until combat starts normally. [1]
Honglim and Dokkebi Karma messages do not reduce actual Karma
Some classes see Karma penalty messages when defeating monsters in Honglim Base and Dokkebi Forrest. The notice explicitly states that actual Family Karma does not decrease. It separately acknowledges frame-rate drops in Event Horizon without supplying a workaround. [1]
PC monitoring programs can stop the launcher opening
Pearl Abyss is investigating the launcher not opening properly while programs that monitor PC status in real time are running. The documented temporary measure is to close the relevant monitoring programs. The notice does not identify every program by name. [1]
