Gathering Stats

So in terms of gathering stats: Output, Gathering and Perception, which ones are more important that the others and which should i try to itemize for?

im still not even completely sure what each stat does, if someone could please explain what the stat does and the best way to itemize i would be extremely grateful.

Q. What exactly do Disciple of the Land–specific attributes affect?

A. Please refer to the following:
Gathering: Reduces the depletion rate of the Remainder gauge.
Perception: Increases a player's chance to find higher-quality items.
Output: Increases the amount of times a miner or botanist can gather at a single point, as well as reduces the amount of time a fisher must wait for a bite.
