Description

In an otherwise superbly designed application, it has always been a point of annoyance that it takes six clicks and three dialogs to allocate the stat point I've earned by leveling.

I'm compulsive enough that I always want to assign stat points as soon as I've earned them and am dissatisfied with the available auto-allocation schemes. As such, navigating to my stats overview by means of the notification menu always seems like a needlessly roundabout route. The app seems to ignore the obvious link between earning and expending the point.

The most straightforward solution seems to be tacking the 'stat points' section of the stats overview to the level up dialog. You probably want to hide it for users that have auto-allocation turned on. Even people who only assign points once every few levels are going to appreciate the simplification, even if they aren't exactly clamoring for it right now.

For a less intrusive option you could also consider adding a link to the stats overview at the bottom of the level up dialog. Personally, I feel the incorporated component is more elegant, but a shortcut would still be a significant improvement over the current set-up.

I'd love to hear what you guys think. I don't mind taking a stab at implementing this myself, but obviously not without an expert opinion on what the finished product should look like.

I got impatient. Sorry. Hope you guys approve of the fix, and if not I suppose it was a good learning experience?

While this does describe a UX pain point, it's the sort of thing we'd want to cover with the UX staff before deciding on / prioritizing a solution. Marking for staff discussion!
