Collectable gathering rotations?

[Deathgiver]

Thanks for the info! I was also wondering about gathering from Ephemeral nodes. When going strictly for Dawnborne Aethersand, is it most efficient to just use the rotation for leaf/landborne, or is there a more efficient rotation that just gets to 5 or 6 rarity for Dawnborne while allowing more gathering attempts?

You can get 5 collectability/2 gathers by doing the blue scrip 3 gather rotation listed above. That being said, you're probably still better off trying for 7/8 or 8/8 since the leaf/landborne sands are worth way more than dawnborne is. I f you don't need them, just sell them and buy 5 or 6 dawnborne for every 1 you sell.

edit- mathed wrong >.<

Depends on your server. They are all about the same price on my server's MB (leafborne is actually selling for less than the other two.)
