    I really don't have a problem with current system. If you synth what's the name "currant" its' a used item that replenish 300 gp (with cooldown). I think it's craftable also...alchemy?

    What I find helpful to regain gp is simply harvesting nodes for crystal or just plain resellable/crafting items. You get 25gp/node and can quickly regain entire bar rather than standing around waiting for the tics. I tend to use this after a gathering leve...who doesn't need crystals?

    I wouldn't mind a job action that bumps the number of tp return say...double per swing for say for 25gp? Though, this would break the leve challenge somewhat if you could use this to regain gp on regular node and then gather leve node. So maybe not.

    1. that GP item is not craft-able, it also can only be used once every 5 minutes.
    2. Most nodes only give you 4 harvest attempts. You get 4GP an attempt so most nodes give 20 GP not 25GP.
    3. Have you ever timed GP regen vs. harvesting a node? Time wise, they work out to close to the same. Also, harvesting can take a lot longer if there are any Fates near by due to lag.
    It just seems faster, since your not standing around doing nothing, watching the clock tick.

    2. Nope - it's definitely 5 GPs per swing (however your "calculation" is correct - it's +20 GP for 4 attempts nodes).
    3. It's Faster for sure - I've measured / tested it myself mainly when the unspoiled node is about to dissapear from the same "start point" I'll gain GP significantly faster while gathering than just iddling ...
