Give us a reason to use anything but standard while synthing!

[Soukyuu]

So with the whole discussion on whether being afk and pressing "confirm" on a controller is considered botting and what not, it's pretty clear the synth minigame is flawed.

Main problem being that to get steady, stable exp, all you have to do is spam enter.

There was an adjustment of how much exp you gain in proportion to the quality of a synth, but it is still not enough.

I just burned through a stack of cinderfoot olives and spamming enter worked fine, not a single break. Half of the time I tried to get more exp by using careful synth, I suddenly got into streaks of failures, breaking my synth in the end.

The other 50% of those synths took me about TWICE as long as spamming standard while only gaining about 50% more exp - clearly too low and NOT worth it.

This still needs adjustment, for example make careful synth give more quality, or set a bonus for every successful careful synth.

Something needs to be done here, otherwise it's no wonder so many people spam enter for hours - doing anything else puts you at disadvantage.
