why when i switch to a dol am i not at full gp its dumb

[Eidolon]

no when i switch anywhere i should be full damn

Well there wouldn't really be a way to stop you from switching to DOW -> Switching back to DoL, so you'd basically be arbitrarily stuck switching rapidly between the two. Putting the switch in the Sanctuary meanwhile would require you to go to town or be in a town for the switch to have it take an effect.

I get your point and I share your frustration to be sure. Perhaps it would be better if they programmed it as it currently is when it tracks your GP and gives you the maximum you have from gear on XD I think this is perhaps the point that Canadane wanted to make - your Base GP is 400 so it restores up to 400 max while you're online.

Let me share my frustration with you. When you have skills that uses 80%+ of your total GP on a single node and refreshment rate at 5 GP every tick/3sec on top of that cordials give only 300 GP with 4min cool down, it makes you wonder why do we have skills from the first place.

I still can harvest/mine everything regardless of my GP.

But not at an insane rate of 12/15 per node.

With the large requirement of items needed for HW crafts I can't find a reason why we can't do that for every 2 or 3 nodes

You can, with Cordials and Hi-Cordials. And Cordials are pretty cheap (800gp each at times) on the MB. During a heavy gathering session, I'll be drinking Cordials on cooldown. With that and good timing, you can hit the nodes at 9, 10, 11, and 12, bang bang bang bang.

It works like this:

With food, I can start the run at 650 GP.
Gathering for bulk requires 500 GP.
GP regens at 300 per Eorzean hour.
Cordials restore 300 GP, Hi-Cordials (available for blue scrip) restore 400 GP. Both have a 4 minute oooldown (which is 82 or so Eorzean minutes).

The last node is really tight tho. And if the third node is the 11PM Adamantite, I generally head off for DarkSteel (1AM) instead.
