Changes that it would be nice to see for crafting / gathering

[Vasala]

Here is my list of things I would love to see changed:

Less timed nodes used for items from level 51-59. It sort of makes sense for the max level items to need at least some timed items but it is definitely painful for people leveling crafting to need as much timed stuff as is currently required.

It would also be nice to see the old level 50 unspoiled nodes either give more items per gather or spawn more frequently now that they are old content.

Having the old level 50 crafts become quick synthable is already on the radar so that is good to see. With how much darksteel / rose gold related stuff needed for the airships that will be a big quality of life change.

Having Heavensward mobs drop more of the various crafting mats would be very nice and / or a reduction of the amount of mats needed for the various crafting pieces. 3 skins per leather, etc starts to get highly annoying.

I would also like to see the ore, sand, log requirements for nuggets, ingots, lumber be reduced. 5 per seems pretty steep since the nodes are not yielding more than old ones do per hit.

It would be nice to see an all crafting / gathering set for red scripts instead of the individual ones. Or have that be the crafted set with melding possible. I really do not like seeing individual sets that need melding come back for all of the crafting / gathering classes. Full melding needed for 11 classes is way too expensive. Not to mention how punishing on space going back to individual sets is.

I would like to see the whole favor thing gotten rid of. Make it new folklore instead so it is not a constant drain on red scripts or make that a blue script thing. It would also be nice to see the number of scripts needed for the folklore books be reduced. It seems very excessive for each one to take 99 tokens which translates into 4950 blue scripts each. (14850 scripts per gathering class or 44550 scripts for all 3 classes for a handful more gathering items that are on a timer just seems very punishing. (and then fishing has to use 350 gp to even catch the folklore fish))
