Syndicate system vs Focus system

[Firetempest]

Why cant it function like Focus. You choose your syndicate like your path. It functions above all other gear. It effects everything with very little micromanagement. Easy to change primary with probably 2 clicks like focus path. It makes multiple systems within the game similar and easier to pick-up on instead of vastly different because there is 2 year gap when they were designed.

Sigil bonuses could be taken off all of them and be dictated only by your actual perks you pour standing into just like focus. You unlock your passive standing boosts. And pour your standing in to rank unlocks for new offering sacrifices. It would be a bit of a rework but the current system has been meh for a long time.

It could open they way for far more involvement and dedication to various sides than just loot. Specially unlocking say augment perks like focus abilities that are more general. Steel Meridian as primary get some passive base armor to any frame. Cephalon gets some passive base energy. Stuff like that.
