Synergy 60+?

I'm sure this question has been considered before, maybe even asked at some point, but I can't seem to find any answers for it on the popular sites or forums so I figured I'd ask it here.

I'm curious about how Synergy will work post-60, specifically whether or not you'll be able to make it a main craft or if you'll be limited to sub-craft level.

For example, I'm a level 98 Goldsmither, with multiple subcrafts capped at 60. I am currently a level 54 Synergist, and planning on hitting the current cap of 60 with Synergy.

I'm curious if when the cap on Synergy is raised, if I could continue with Synergy without affecting my levels in Goldsmithing (similar to how you're able to hit 100 in Fishing without dropping levels in your other crafts). I'd hate to end up deleveling my Goldsmithing for no reason.

Who knows guess we will find out lol. If you have another 100 might want to experiment on that first as lvl 98+ skills on goldsmithing are killer

i think it will be like fishin.

Synergy, like fishing is very different from the traditional crafts that use crystals.. For that fact, I think Synergy will follow in fishing's footsteps and considered to be in a class of it's own, I.E. you can take Fishing, Synergy and one of the other crafts of your choice all to 100.

I'm gonna assume they will announce it in either update notes or the day of the update. I don't think SE would be THAT cruel to make us find out for ourselves the hard way (at least I hope). For now though, I'm gonna guess it'll be like fishing, as Ethereal said.

Wanted to bring this topic up again now that the update has been released.

Any info?

bump! need the answers!

It doesn't affect your main crafts. I'm 70 Synergy and still 98 Alchemy. Can get a pic later tonight if you want to be 100% certain. Or not, my profile shows the Alchemy skill level (Cerberus account).

Yeah it is like fishing, happy leveling.

BTW I swear somewhere I saw an NPC mention synergy skill "enthusiast."

excellent, thanks for the answers. I hit 63 last night and my Gold didnt drop to 97, so I was pleased.
