Following some quick work from the team we have now produced a patch aiming resolve the high priority issues coming out of the Galactic Paragons + 3.8 release. 3.8.2 should be available for download via Steam and GOG now. Unfortunately there is a delay in the deployment of the patch to Microsoft Store, and players on this platform should expect the update to arrive early next week instead. We will continue our efforts fixing and balancing where needed, so keep your reports coming! Please find the patch notes below.
