Affects the rate at which Gatherer's Boon is triggered for 
Miner and 
Botanist. Additionally increases the collectability increase provided by 
Scrutiny when gathering 
collectables. Certain items in gathering nodes require a minimum perception stat to be eligible for gathering. Reaching specific perception thresholds for a given node will randomly result in a bonus in Gatherer's Boon rate (up to 100%).
For 
Fisher, increases the chance of gathering large-sized fish when fishing or spearfishing. Will also result in a higher chance of gathering a large-sized fish upon using 
Nature's Bounty.
History
Perception used to control the rate at which 
High Quality items were gathered. It was retooled with Patch 6.0 and the release of Endwalker.
