Wrong text on damaged gear yellow icon

From Patch 1.19 Notes:

[dev1156] The reduction in gear effectiveness based on damage has been changed as follows:
The effectiveness of an item is not diminished when its Condition is between 1-100%. If Condition drops to 0%, however, the item will become damaged and offer no benefits whatsoever to the wearer. The effects of any materia attached will also be rendered invalid.
A yellow icon will appear as a warning for gear whose Condition has dropped below 10%.
A red icon will appear as a warning for gear currently equipped whose condition has dropped to 0%.

Currently, the text of yellow icon for gear whose Condition has dropped below 10% shows as follow:

So basically the text is giving wrong information.

Indeed. It should be adjusted to "Certain gear is damaged." only since the damaged has no ingame effect anymore.

I'm lovin' it! I mean... I'm bumpin' it! :p

Such a shameless golden arches reference. >_<

I noticed this quite a while ago and didn't bother to report it. Good thing OP isn't as lazy as I am. Oh and also, bump. Kinda surprised this hasn't gotten a dev comment yet :O (and I don't mean that in a bad way, you all are doing a great job ^^)

Thanks for the bumps. I'd actually forgotten all about this guy. :o

Looks like you're all absolutely right. The help text of the status was not changed in patch 1.19 to reflect the updates to how gear damage functions (in any language, so not localization's fault! wewt!). I've just gone in and amended it now, and the new text will go live as soon as 1.20b does.

Sorry for any confusion this has been causing, and thanks for the free debuggi--I mean posts! :p

I do love Phurbles and I am a fearful soul respecting The Twelve. I don't deserve that fall to oblivion... :(

PS: Thanks for the amending! Not just this one, all of them! :)
