You're off your rocker. So you have problems with synergy being used to make teleport earrings? You have problems with Synergy being used to make some arrows and bullets? Get off your high horse man. Synergy is something new Square Enix tried out, and these adjustments mean that you and a friend can have up to 4 crafts capped out. If you can't get a friend to join your party for a few minutes while you make a couple items, or to party up with you while he AFKs and you craft... that's your own problem.

I didn't start up crafting so that I could be a lone wolf. I started up crafting to help people out like making Quake Grenades for LS members, or making profits on item X Y or Z. You relied on people to make items from other crafts, and put them up on the AH or to sell them to you directly or what ever else. So now you have to form a party with a skill you don't happen to have. Grow up. Heck all crafts at level 80 will make you MORE sufficient at Synergy since most Synergy up to this point don't require you to have more than 1 craft above 80. So all you're doing is QQ because crafting is perfect in every conceivable way that you personally want it to be.

In my opinion they just need to add higher level gear that means something to crafting 100 or even make the max go up to 110 or something and they could add really nice lvl 95 or 99 gear to old crafts, or even make base items for synergy to craft up, or to enhance, or what ever.

As someone who is focusing on taking synergy up to cap most likely, I still either need to level up goldsmithing or bonecrafting to 80+ or get other people to craft the ingredients for me for the bullets and arrowheads needed to make bullets and arrows. But if I was doing another craft instead of synergy, it'd still be the same story. I'd have to have other people do the crafts for me cause there's no way I'm making a party worth of mules just so I can have all the crafts covered in some way.

I like the direction of crafting, I'd just like to see some new powerful items that could be made for 80+ level range in the older craft system so that people who did that much work, still have relevant gear. But to act as if Synergy should ONLY be enhancement and anything else it does is just pure wrong, is just arrogance. There's enough room for all crafts to make items of worth.
