Surplus Message + Surplus Display

[Sirtis]

For this thread, three related items.

1. Many classes (I have not tested all) when they enter a state of Surplus, the word "skill" is displayed twice in a row. Of course I believe this is likely an issue with localization.

Example: "You earn reduced surplus archery skill skill points due to fatigue."

2. The surplus message itself is a constant annoyance for displaying all the time. At the maximum physical level or class rank, it still displays once a player goes into surplus even there is effectively no ranking up occurring. This is annoying, please add this special case to remove displaying at maximum level.

3. To facilitate the removal of the Surplus chat message (I agree to the notification of surplus rank increase in chat), please add message next to the class rank or physical level saying something like:

Rank 1: "Surplus: -10% SP"
Rank 2: "Surplus: -20% SP"
etc.

In full form it would display as: "Physical Level: 50 -- Surplus: -10% XP"

At the lowest level, if any of the above can not be implemented due to some issue, I request a chat filter specifically for surplus so I can remove it outright.

i wouldnt be opposed to having the message somewhere on the ui or in one of the menu's as i agree it takes up alot of the chat log, especially if you hit physical surplus and class.

As to the skill skill issue, its more of a comma issue than wording issue
You earn reduced surplus archery skill, skill points due to fatigue

I thought they were going to remove surplus system, wouldn't that make this improvement redundant and unnecessary?

[Cutriss]

Not a comma, but just an unintended redundancy. "archery skill"-type "skill points". It doesn't make any more sense when you add the comma.

No matter how small the change, if it removes something that is annoying it makes the game that much better to play. I don't know if they will or will not remove the surplus system, but it surely will take more than just a simple patch. If they will remove it, then just a filter for it would suffice. If not, then a more complete adjustment is required.

I really hate how the text for sp/xp takes away all my chatlog when using shield. Since i have a smaller resolution on my laptop, each line of text when fatigue takes 2 rows. Having Physical fatigue, Job fatigue and Shield fatigue takes 6 lines of my screen on each kill. This could be shortened to make it simple and less spam in the chat log window
