As those skills stand, I think very few people put more than 1 point into them. With 1 point I'm already stopping every 5 seconds to grab a rune or a alchemy plant. I really don't bother with the other mats anymore because they pile up so quickly.
I think it would be cool to add crafting cache chests that would be visible at rank 3. I also think it would be nice to have some sort of treasure hunter keen eye skill for the normal chests in the world tree. Perhaps even streamline the whole thing and move all keen eye skills into the world tree and make it 6 ranks for everything. Rank 4 could be crafting cache chests, rank 5 could be treasure hunter, rank 6 perhaps even treasure maps or something.
