Even then it needed a bit of luck; I got sick of nodes slamming shut in my face just as I got to them in both Dravania and Sea of Clouds.

So, if the Devs are going to continue with only having timed-nodes up for 55 Eorzean minutes, placing Aetherytes to allow people to bypass areas where lots of players congregate would not be a bad idea, nor would spreading them more evenly across an area to enable access to timed nodes.
Personally, I'd prefer a return to the more relaxed gathering we had in ARR, with timed nodes up for 3 hours so you could actually run to them instead of being forced to teleport everywhere, but that's another discussion.
yeah exactly, I do not know why took someone this long with some sense to comment on the gathering issues. Oh yeah that is another thing, why is it 55 mins or so and not 1 hr? it feels like it is bugged and they feel like depopping sooner then they should
