Crafting Node Scaling

I know in Orsinium, Cyrodiil and future DLCs crafting material nodes scale, however, what exactly do they scale to? Is it your max crafting level or is it scaled based upon the level of item you have skill points put into? Example... if I have my Clothing leveled to 50, will node materials scale to 50, or do I also have to invest skill points into the ability to craft the highest material in order to receive max level, VR15-16 materials from the nodes?

    It is based on your crafting skill ( the level of item you have skill to craft ).
    If you have Blacksmithing at lvl 50, but you can only craft steel ( lvl 2 ), you will only get High Iron ore.

    CROWN CRATES: It doesn't affect gameplay, it's not mandatory, it's cosmetic only. If it helps to support the game and ZOS, I support it! Say YES to crown crates.

    Well that sucks... because I don't want to CRAFT with my current character, I just want him to be able to collect highest crafting mats while questing in DLCs for my crafting alt.

    Exactly the same here, I don't play my crafting character but he's maxed out on professions, my VR2 NB only does Alchemy and is getting low level ore etc I just don't need.

    Prepare to spend 30 skill points to max out blacksmithing, clothing and woodworking, then. Assuming you don't ALSO need highest level runes, then spend more. . .

    Exactly.

    Nodes should scale on Character level or Crafting Level

    Enjoy the game, life is what you really want to be worried about.
