    Only 5 Abilities can be used????

    No more than five abilities can be used during synthesis. In the event that the number of abilities equipped exceeds this limit, five will be chosen at random.

    whats the point of being able to equip 10 then? no one is gonna wanna have random abilities pop up from the 10 u equip so im assuming that people are only gonna start equipping the 5 they wanna use from now on... this makes the advantage of being 50 and equipping 10 rather pointless after 25.

    Yeah it's a little confusing. I know I'd just set the 5 abilities I'd prefer for whatever I'm doing, whether it's just leveling up or trying to create HQ gear.

    I kinda read it as they are limiting the amount of abilities to 5 but rather then have it where you have to reset your skills again, if you still have 10 abilities after VU it'll randomly pick 5 of them when you do synths. Unless you do what's mentioned above and just set 5 abilities.

    that was my point but who the hell would want random ones, when you either craft for skill or HQ you usually have a set of abilities u like to use for those tasks, so why would u want 5 other random ones showing up in your ability list.

    If only 5, use these
    Byregot's Blessing (+100% Quality 3 steps)
    Purification (+125 Quality 1 step)
    Heart and Soul (+125% Quality 1 step)
    Perfection (Careful Great Success 1 step)
    Master's Mend (+ Great amount of Durability back)

    If 10 randomly placed during the synth like it is now then

    Byregot's Blessing (+100% Quality 3 steps)
    Purification (+125 Quality 1 step)
    Heart and Soul (+125% Quality 1 step)
    Good Measure (+100% Quality 1 step)
    Inner Quiet (+100% Quality 1 step)
    High Return (Great Success 1 step)
    Culmination (Great Success 1 step)
    Perfection (Careful Great Success 1 step)
    Master's Mend (+ Great amount of Durability back)
    Piece by Piece (+40 Progress -0 to -10 Durability)

    Dont really care as these abilities look like they are actually worth using.

    Yea only 5 show up at a time, but you can still use all 10 during the synth. they are changing it now to (like it sounds) u can see 5 at a time but once you use one the other ones will not show up. so all equipping more than 5 would do is randomize your set of abilities.

    Yeah, we're not really losing anything considering the new abilities are worth more than 2 of our current abilities.
