Guild support
Not excatly sure if this is the proper place to post this but here goes.
One of the problems I have with synthing is the lack of proper guild support in all the cities. At the present time you need to take large amounts of time traveling to a city for Guild level Facilities support in order to complete a synth or Local Levee quest. Unles you have Anima to burn it takes about 15-30 minutes to travel from 1 city to another. Highly inefficient. Would it be possible to make these facilities available in all cities, say as part of the Public Companies. All other functions i.e. Class Quest, spending Guild Marks would remain with the Guilds

As a smith I would start in ulda. Get gs support and do the gs synths, then take the bs leves that need guild support to Limsa. Now, spectacles in Limsa need gs guild support but I have that. So I finish limsas gs quests, then do ulda and limsas bs quests and take the bs support to gridania where the bs leves often require support.
Then I return to ulda. Crazy yes, but it works decently.
But yeah they should probably not put those synths as local leves.

I have no problem with guild support and higher only being at the guild, that makes logical sense, but yes I agree having the need for guild support in a country that doesnt have the guild is a pain.

If the synth isn't too tough you can get by with common support from the repair NPC on leves requiring guild support. I don't see it as that big of a problem: I'm generally going back and forth between Ul'dah and LL anyways. As long as I can turn in some other local leves immediately in my current city there's room to keep one or two in my journal for the next stop.

Shouldn't be that big of an issue once chocobos/airships are eventually implemented.

I think I remember reading somewhere that something like this was on the plans.
