    Repetitive Status Icons (Before this gets out of hand)

    Just a short and sweet, observation/request/whatever...

    The status duration icons for Rampart, Defender, Sentinel, Absorb DEF etc. are all the same. There's also a couple of other abilities that share the same icon. While it's not a huge issue right now, it potentially can be if future abilities keep sharing the same icons. (see all FFXI) I remember having an entire row of red arrows or whatever that was.

    In any case, just bringing that up for discussion.

    Agreed. While you're at it, make sure when we hover over debuffs and buffs on the party menu that a tooltip is shown so we can identify the icon as well.

    Player 1: "Oh, look, the mob has a status effect on it!"
    Player 2: "Well, is it a buff or a debuff?"
    P1: "No clue."
    P2: "What do you mean, 'No clue'? What's it do?"
    P1: "**** if I know."
    P2: "That's real useful, thanks." >_<

    Skull Sunder (pretty sure it's skull sunder) and Bloodletter both have the same status icons... that one in particular drives me crazy, since if I'm playing with a MRD in the party, I have to sort of manually keep track of which icon is mine so I know when to let off another Bloodletter.
