No Rewards for "Bonus SP"? Anyone feeling ripped off?

[Val_Rhys]

Wow...what is wrong with people?

I gathered a SHITTON of surplus SP so far and I don't F'ing care about them being gone...who cares, for real? Did you play to get surplus SP, or did you play to play?

I don't feel ripped off at all...

Anyone remember the patch where SP in general was raised by a lot? My server had R50 crafters at that point already...grinding on stuff that was giving them 250-300SP MAX!! One patch later, people get up to 600SP from the same recipes...who do you think would be eligible to feel ripped off? When that patch hit I've been R41 ARM and BSM with a few other crafts in early 30s...and I didn't give a shit about that as well...things will get adjusted and changed over time and if you can't live with being "ripped" off sometimes, then don't play...

This.

Be prepared for more disappointment like this if you feel ripped off now.

As they said, class uniqueness changes will be implemented. Potentially, classes you leveled for a particular ability will no longer be accessible by other classes. Or could be swapped to another class altogether.

Overhauls of the crafting/gathering systems will be made. What if it cuts down the grind time to half what it was through speeding up recipe selection or reducing animation times.

There are so many big changes coming and some are inevitably going to "rip off" the players who ranked up in the old system, or under old assumptions. Everyone will have to deal with that for the greater good of the game.

100% agreed. Hold on to your butts kids, 'cause it's going to be quite the ride through Eorzea in the coming months and there are bound to more than a few cracked eggshells on the ground.

Not at all, I always felt like those 'surplus points' just accumulated in the void and would never have a use anyway. We couldn't use them for anything, so what did we really lose?

[Griss]

Oh hey look, another half ass vauge comment about a game mechanic from the tanaka era isnt coming true. wow what a shocker

[Vahzl]

How can one feel ripped off when one hasn't currently paid anything? (Yes those who have paid 70 quid for the CE, a little painful, but the majority have paid less than the price of a piece of cheesecake for this game, 4€ myself).

They get rid of surplus and people still complain, lol.

This is the true death of this game lol.

[Misha]

They're getting rid of surplus and this is their way of balancing it... Just be happy xD This is a laughable penalty if you can even consider it one(Cause they already said they have to balance it somehow, better than lower sp across the board for instance!). Can't believe all the negativity... surplus is going AWAY... BE HAPPY... *facepalm* some of you people are hopeless...

+ what do you want for your suprlus?
Skill Points? Money? Gear?
Everyone who played this game for few months has tons of it.
So what do you need so badly, that you want to exchange your surplus points?

[Molly_Millions]

if you lose something you never had to begin with, is it really a loss?


You people would complain about free head, I swear...

[Kilta_Firelotus]

Not true. They considered the possibility of that, but never stated it as a clear-cut and ready-for-implementation idea. Btw: it never said "Bonus EXP" in the Japanese version. That was just a translation for US crybabies.

Umm yes true. Pre yoshi info dude. It was thought about but nothing added. Learn to read the context. And also, learn not to insult US people on Us forums.
