    So if these really are obtainable from aetherial nodes, could people please post their rotations and required GP? (Obviously I'm talking about nodes with only 4 gathering attempts)

    I use Discerning + Impulsive, x2 -> Discerning + Methodical, 600 GP total. If Impulsive procs, replace Discerning with Single Mind for another swing. If you're not getting enough points, use Utmost + Instinctual instead. If that still fails, use Last Ditch.

    I've found it more profitable to go for quantity rather than quality so ive been doing this.


    Usually i get 4 attempts at this rotation per gathering time i guess... using cordial to get back to 600 gp.


    Rotation:

    Impulisive > if proc > Single mind > meth > single mind + Discerning eyes > meth > collect

    if no proc > meth > meth > collect > move on

    Interesting that your Impulsive did 155. That seems to indicate a +50% quality buff.

    I'm starting to wonder if there is a small chance to HQ an appraisal swing. A HQ swing would be equivalent to using DE.

    I've noticed it has always done 155 when i have gotten the Discerning Eye Buff from it. Otherwise it will do like 110 or 115 or something and give me no buff

    Impulsive procs apply to both the current swing and the next one. That's what you observe here. Big gamble, but very rewarding.

    540, only new gear ive gotten since 3.0 came out is the trailblazer stuff free (blue script items), and i made an hq lvl 53 off hand tool, no melds. i do have lucis main hand though, but im sure with all the new crafted gear you can get a lot better stats than mine.

    I'd like for someone to explain this. You hit for 172 with methodical with 540 perception but I can hit only 115 with 665 perception?

    That would be a Methodical with Impulsive proc / Discerning. 115 Methodical is the hard cap without buffs.
