How play and understand this damn Immortal Syndicate!

Hello. I have been playing PoE since 2013, I was away for a while and now I have been playing often again. As I started playing again, I came across this hell called Immortal Syndicate! I need help understanding this.

First: How to increase the rate encounter with Syndicate? Only on Jun Atlas missions?

Second: How do I get the right target in each place? Let's say: I want It That Fled as the top of research, but it's in Transportation. How do I change places? Are there any easy guides anyone can point me to? The guides I find today are very complex and despite seeing and reviewing I still don't understand the interactions and how to play the characters from side to side. Please help me! Thank you in advance.

1) yes, mostly jun master missions. syndicate can appear randomly too if no other master mission is being run, but it's really rare. or you can use a prophecy to spawn jun which is annoying to buy and can be expensive in the long run.

2) i usually demote them by killing them if someone is in the wrong branch. then you wait until they show up in your favorite encounter and get offered the option that they join it. the other way is waiting until that syndicate member can swap with someone from the branch you want them in. that's very rare and takes forever in my experience.

maybe someone has better tips. it's just my suggestion.

also, grab a syndicate cheat sheet from somewhere online that shows the rewards for each branch and member. but make sure it's up to date. some rewards have changed.

Betrayal is the worse league ever...That syndicate table is just silly and getting crafting recipes is boring as hell.

If person is not in the place where u want make it unrank (no stars). So basically to make him unrank imprison him till 0 stars. Then beg rng to appear that person in desired section - after this kill him to increase his rank everytime. If he is directly under boss safehouse, then when safehouse boss appears imprison him, which will cause your person move to boss of safehouse. Voila!

Overall making rivals (red lines) everyone will increases probability to appear more opponents each encounter. To make them rival they must be TRUSTED (green lines) first. So first make them trusted, then force them to betray eachother so they will become rivals. Thats why syndicate league was called BETRAYAL :)

NEVER choose option "Remove all rivalers"!
