    Personally, I thought Synergy was a horrible idea in the first place. Especially, in a shrinking population. Prior to Synergy, you simply had to hunt down a single highly-skilled crafter and bring them your materials. Not always an easy task. But, I could often find someone by asking around. With Synergy, it is now quite possible that you will need to hunt down several highly-skilled crafters and get them to gather at the same place at the same time. Anyway, just my thought on Synergy in general.

    In my opinion to counter this is to allow players to have multiple crafts over 60, possibly allow them a choice of up to 2 or 3 crafts to 100. I personally do not foresee this being too much of an issue for balance, considering you may only be an active participant in only one guild at a time, referring to Guild points system. That and everyone would have equal opportunity to have multiple crafts. This would also help make it easier for crafters to get a hold of high level materials for their crafting when it is a high level synth for a different craft.
