    Here's some numbers, applied to previously mentioned rotations. Assuming 95% chance and 5% base HQ (if you have different bases, post them and I'll do the numbers out for them):
    1. Field Mastery II + Leaf Turn II (400 GP) = average yield: 5*0.35 = 1.75 HQ
    2. Toil + Field Mastery II + Leaf Turn (500 GP) = average yield: 5*0.15 + 1 = 1.75 HQ
    3. Toil + Leaf Turn II = average yield: 0.95*0.35*6 + 0.65*0.95^5 = 2.498 HQ
    4. Toil + Ageless Words = 7*0.95*0.05 + 0.05*0.95^5*0.95 + 0.95^5*1.9 = 1.839 HQ
    5. Blessed Harvest + Field Mastery II + Leaf Turn = average yield: 0.15*5*2 = 1.5 HQ
    6. Blessed Harvest II + Leaf Turn = average yield: 0.95*0.15*5*3 = 2.1375 HQ
    7. Toil/Ageless Words + Field Mastery I + Leaf Turn II (650 GP) = average yield: 5*0.35 + 1 = 2.75 HQ [Rehwyn's is equivalent to this and only costs 630 GP]

    Honestly, I do #3. I don't really want to mess with the near-max GP melds needed for #7.


    EDIT: Here's some numbers with lower stats

    With 85% base gathering chance and 1% base HQ chance:
    1. Field Mastery II + Leaf Turn II (400 GP) = average yield: 5*0.31 = 1.55 HQ
    2. Toil + Field Mastery II + Leaf Turn (500 GP) = average yield: 5*0.11 + 1 = 1.55 HQ
    3. Toil/Ageless Words + Leaf Turn II = average yield: 0.85*0.31*6 + 0.69*0.85^5 = 1.887 HQ]
    4. Toil + Ageless Words = 7*0.85*0.01 + 0.01*0.85^5*0.85 + 0.85^5*1.7 = 0.8157 HQ
    5. Blessed Harvest + Field Mastery II + Leaf Turn = average yield: 0.11*5*2 = 1.1 HQ
    6. Blessed Harvest II + Leaf Turn = average yield: 0.85*0.11*5*3 = 1.4025 HQ
    7. Toil/Ageless Words + Field Mastery I + Leaf Turn II (650 GP) = average yield: 0.9*0.31*6 + 0.69*0.9^5 = 2.0814 HQ [Rehwyn's is NOT equivalent to this since your chance to hit is <100%]

    So, regardless of stats, #2 is inferior to #1 (same chance, more GP). With <600 GP, #1 is best. With 600 GP, #3 is best. With 650 GP, #7 is best.
