GP Issue or am I missing something?

It's working as intended. It shouldn't regenerate faster than it does since there would be a flood of HQ items on the market. The GP is meant for the Lvl 50 unspoiled nodes. A node spawns every twelve minutes in game. It takes 1 minute to restore 100 gp, 5gp every 3 seconds. It takes 6 minutes to restore back to full. The rotation for unspoiled nodes takes 600gp, 300gp for the 30% HQ increase, and another 300 for the extra hit. When they all hit, a chain #4, you use the skill that gives 100% Gather and HQ. I personally prefer the Gather +15% for 100gp and then the 300gp for 30% HQ. There is plenty of time in between the nodes spawn times for it to refill. You shouldn't be able to have max gp on every regular node, not only would it speed up leveling gathering classes, it would make the NQ version near worthless in comparison due to the sheer volume of HQ mats that every gatherer would be trying to dump on the market.

If you have a problem with the gather rate on lower level nodes, either equip gear to your level, or figure out the optimal rotation for the nodes. You're given 4 nodes in any given area, the average gather rate is roughly 80% with gear your level. At times you won't be able to use a skill, but at most you should only need to use the 100gp skill for the extra 15% gather rate increase. Use that skill once per node until you run out and then make another rotation while it refills. Rinse and repeat.

And if you want a quicker "ready-up" rate, I propose you prepare in advance. You shouldn't be able to just swap to a class and be able to use all the skills. Try swapping to a battle class to use your skills when a fate pops near you, you can't until they refresh, as it should be. If that were the case, then I can just wait until the last minute when a rare node spawns, swap to my miner, get a quick boost to my gp, gather and then swap to my botanist class, get my gp boost and gather from the other rare node that's up with virtually no downtime.
