Isn't this what variety is all about?

This is poor balance if a certain skill is only useful for one very specific build. With the new system, it just sits there and doesn't matter for "normal" characters, while for others it can play a new role, thanks to synergy. How is that worse, tell me?

Although, I wouldn't say it's bad. I recently reread "The Sea-Wolf," and there's a certain romance in this kind of indeterminacy...

I'm not saying it's bad. What's bad is that without it, there was a problem with diversity.
