Psijic portals and CP

Quick question: does plentiful harvest perk (I assume this one should be correct, not treasure hunter) works also with Psijic Portals?
I have seen great disparity between portals, from totally rubbish gains to bingo hits with motifs and leads, but never analyzed if CP might had an impact on the results... So maybe more professional gatherers can share their own experience

✭✭✭✭✭They're more like chests than resource nodes with loot being pretty random as they have a wider pool to draw from than actual chests. Maybe Treasure Hunter works on improving set item quality if it happens to roll that item, but the list is too varied to be sure.1 -

I know, but they could be found instead of enchantment nodes, so I assume that all calculations would be done according to node types, not chest one.

Mythreindeer✭✭✭✭✭I have one character with all the treasure hunter type perks/node boosts and the psijic line opened. I would have to say the bonus is minimal to none as I hunt the portals to some degree every day and the drop rate for Aurbic Amber, motifs and leads is abysmally low.2 -

The "double the resource node" event did *not* double the contents of portals, so they obviously are not considered "nodes".
I don't think they are influenced by any skills, just purely random content.1 -

This is my understanding of portals also.0 -

✭✭✭✭✭This is part of why PH says “normal” resource nodes. It can double survey nodes but not Psijic Portals.0 -

✭✭✭✭✭One thing to remember though, there is a cooldown on the fancy stuff you can get from the portals. If you find them too quickly, you will start getting just the minimum low level loot until that cooldown is over.
I forget the exact time but it has been posted here on the forums before. You'll probably have to go back to the days after they were released to find the exact cooldown duration.
