Could we please bring back the 5 attempts per node. It makes Brunt force a rather useless ability seeing as it an only be activated after chain 4, meaning you could only ever use it on nodes with gathering attempt +1 on it. Attempts need to bee raised by one or change brunt force to activate after chain 3. The original excuse for taking away one attempt per node was that SE did not want the market flooded with crafting mats, but that exact same thing is going to happen after the 15th when the BTN and MIN exp is boosted, more higher gatherers means more mats on the market = Lower prices. So just bring back the extra gathering attempt per node. Also the rate at which you gather shards is ludicrous, I have to farm shards for like 2 hours for what 20 minutes of crafting with some recipes calling for 5-6+ shards per item and some requiring 2 diff shards on top of that. 1 shard per attempt unless you use a 400 GP ability to bump it up to 3 per hit and it takes how long to regen GP?
