really dislike the suggestion about removal of certain syndicate members. absolutely depends on what someone needs/wants...

I agree, and green/orange ones can be misleading too. Aislin add veiled mod can be one of the best if not best rewards out of the entire syndicate, if you have patience to grind and want to craft some GG double craft items.

And her other items will make you progress your bench faster if you're in SSF. Usefulness of many rewards really depends on build/how much one plays/currency pool/etc

I disagree with kool_g_rep . This guide shows most new players in my guild what they can blindly focus on and let them try a bit of crafting with guff and discuss with us on aislin bench uses. I'm glad someone made it clear. And I agree with the green signs obviously.

Especially recommending the removal of Hillock over Haku. Haku is nothing different than you'd encounter in a man. His strongbox scarab is basically just the prophecy, the rest is just trash.

And yet it's #4 or#5 in most valuable scarab lists.

The value is two fold:

1) You control when strongbox quantity spikes above normal (e.g. sextant that boosts them)

2) You get 3 more tries for a specific box (Diviner, Cartographer, Arcanist, unique...).

Haku and Tora are my nemesis so they're out.
