Please get rid of surplus SP

[Drexel]

You can get to 50 in less than a month logging in for only an hour and a half each reset and doing leves in a static group. You can ask anyone in my LS.

Simply put, if anyone is quitting over fatigue then a) they don't know how it works in reality and b) they don't have a good grasp on how SP works in this game in general.

How are you acomplishing that with just 1.5 hours each reset. Me and my static party for 4ish hours each reset and we are on track it seems to get both jobs we are leveling up to 50 in about a two months or so from rank 20. So i do agree with the 1 month to get to 50 or alittle more but 1.5 hours, think thats abit of an exageration.

Yes I agree please remove it there is no need for it.

The idea of Fatigue keeps people from playing FFXIV and that alone is more than enough reason to eliminate it.

At first I was kinda for it but now with some changes I do perfer to see it go too. I don't feel it's right to limit people on how much or how little they wanna play, especially if your paying for the service wich we all will have to at some point. Everyone should be self-accountable for their time management on how much they play and conduct themselves in their daily lives and if they don't have that kind of control then that should be they're own problem and not the gaming company.

Yes please remove surplus.
I don't care if some players have enough time to go through 1-max level in a week while it might take me 6 months. Besides, it looks horrible on gaming site reviews when it's said "if you play too much you will be penalized". If immersive is what they were going for, this is not it. It's enough as is that we can only do 8 quests per 36 hours. That in itself is enough to make people not want to login. (and if the argument is great rewards, reduce them and take away the timer) I rather play at my convenience and schedule than feel the need to login at x time to do y many things because if I don't then I have lost potential content I could have done. I also would rather not have to logout because I didn't have time to play for two weeks but I wanted to level and make up for it one weekend but I wasn't able to because of surplus exp. . .

Assuming fatigue won't be going away anytime soon....

1) Raise the threshold values whenever SP gain is increased. If you're going to rebalance SP so that players rake it in faster, then dangit raise the threshold so that we don't hit it faster. I know it's obvious, but it doesn't appear to actually be happening.

2) Make the classes more individualistic so there is actually a good reason to level them simultaneously past 20. Why do so many classes need a Bind effect, anyway? Or a "hit all enemies in a line" attack? Instead of cloning abilities across classes, separate them so that people will actually *want* to cross-class for them.

And a couple more related specifically to fatigue accumulation:

3) Turn off fatigue generation when in a party. If you're in a party, you don't generate fatigue. At all. Oh hey look, suddenly everyone wants to party.

4) Bonus SP/XP from levequests and Guardian's Favor does not add to fatigue. Only the enemy's natural SP/XP values add to the threshold counter. Any bonus you get on top of that for being on a levequest, or having Guardian's Favor active, is just that--extra free SP/XP that doesn't incur a penalty.

Well I for one think there should be MORE surplus! So much surplus that it makes leveling even more of a challenge.. because I love the challenge.

Time wasted =/= challenge

Time wasted =/= challenge

Cry more please.

maybe instead they should make a server for all the hardcore people who dont like SP and take it away. Just so they would stop nagging away about it. LOL
