HQ Ore

stacking perception isn't worth it atm.

Totally not true

Also buy yourself some +perception food while you're at it, it can be found in the grocers row under dairy products, rolanberry cheese or lassi are best.

The key is to balance Perception, Gathering and Output. Since stacking perception to the max, with all gear slots stacked, doesn't REALLY give you a noticeable increase in HQ ore.

Best way to get HQ ore, spend a lot of time mining, at level 50, in level 5 node areas and memorize sweetspots and remainder bars. With all stats balanced you'll probably...taking luck into consideration...come out with just as much HQ ore as your friends who stacked perception. In fact you may even have more because you wouldn't have ignored Output and you'll only have to swing once at each spot wile they have to swing twice. ^_^ just saying.
