:huh:
That's already in place for the skills that it can actually work with . . . Necro Poison/Bone Tree, Sorceress Trees, two Amazon Trees etc. and in those instances it can demonstrably get a little too powerful. Some trees it just wouldn't work with, but those are trees that should not be carrying much in the way of synergies anyway.
Thinking of unblancing aspects: Frozen Orb (too powerful), Conviction (diminishing returns), Natural Resistance (one prerequisite/diminishing returns), Valkyrie (too powerful), Fury (too powerful). With one stroke you'd be wiping away everything that the synergy idea can be used to achieve. :(
One rule for all synergies is a game killer.
Out of control exponential returns for some skills is also a game killer.
