Hello all,

I've seen some requests for an aetherial gathering profile. I've made one which gathers all the ephemeral botany and mining nodes for reduction. 

I've been running it for a few hours now and I think that I've worked all the bugs out of it. When one does crop up, it seems to be a navmesh issue where the meshes aren't 100% working yet.

The default setup uses gearset 2 for mining and gearset 3 for botany. You can easily change this in the .lua if you wish:

Code:

    ["setup"] = {
        ["gearsetmining"] = 2;
        ["gearsetbotany"] = 3;
    };

The bot uses the 470 collectability rotation (https://www.garlandtools.org/bell/) except I like to use Instinctual Appraisal at the end instead of Methodical. I find overall it doesn't fail me.  You must have 600GP.

Stats that I've tested it on: Gathering - 1084 Perception - 1054

The bot automatically gathers crystals from the re-pop nodes; however, if you wish for it to gather specific items, this can be easily changed in the .lua.
["item1"] = "Sun Cabbage";

Code:

        [2] = {  -- Re-Pop Task 01 (1of2) @ 8AM-12PM (Botanist / Azim Steppe)
            ["mapid"] = 622;
            ["radius"] = 30;
            ["pos"] = {
                -- -307.8 6.2 412.64 -0.82
                ["x"] = -307.8;
                ["y"] = 6.2;
                ["z"] = 412.64;
                ["h"] = -0.82;
            };
            ["type"] = "botany";
            ["item1"] = "Earth Crystal";  
            ["eorzeaminhour"] = 8;
            ["eorzeamaxhour"] = 12;
            ["skillprofile"] = "Lvl70_Aetherial";
            ["gathermaps"] = false;
            ["gathergardening"] = false;
            ["lowpriority"] = true;
            ["maxtime"] = 7500;
            ["timeout"] = 750;
            ["usestealth"] = true;

Issues with 4AM-8AM node:

• This node currently has issues due to the navmesh and cube connections landing on a Minotaur.
  
• The solution which I have found working for me is to manually create a new takeoff/landing point on the navmesh. I placed my point slightly behind the node so it is away from the minotaur but still pretty much on top of it. Directions for doing this can be found here thanks to GothicPunkGirl: http://www.mmominion.com/thread-19185.html
  

Update:

• Added a profile that gets rid of the 4am Ephemeral Node until the navmesh has been updated to solve the problem here. The issue is that the closest mesh to cube connection is right in front of a mob who likes to kill you when you try to land.
  

• All profiles now gather crystals from the re-pop nodes.
  
• Solution for the 4AM-8AM node (if you're willing to edit your navmesh).
  
• Added a profile for Single Mind + Methodical Appraisal rotation for crystal/cluster farming (no aetherial).
