Add a display that shows how much % of the max weight is used correctly, so you can see easily if you are owerweight.
Something like the red number on this image.
Or just simply fix the fairy, to give actually weight, rather that pointless "you can go over the limit" mechanism.
i can't tell you how many times I've accidentally gone over weight with feathery steps 5 while grinding and been almost completely immobile. i vote for the fairy giving 125% more weight instead of being able to go 125% overweight for feathery steps 5. the other tiers would obviously give their respective amounts of weight.
