Character spins when encountering enemy mobs close to nodes in gathering profiles

I am having an ongoing issue where the bot sits and spins or spins in wide circles around a node when a enemy mob approaches it. Once mob gets close enough (usually right next to me), the bot will usually stop spinning, kill it, mine the node, and move on. But the spinning action is very bot like and causing me to be concerned. I have tried different profiles, different bot settings (kill between hotspots, dont kill between hotspots, etc.) and different CCs - seems to happen no matter what.

A secondary issue is the bot seems to have trouble finding a mining/herb node in Vashjir where for example clams are stacked on top of each other. It goes to the top clam, sits and spins for a while, then moves on. Again, I have tried different profiles and settings and it always seems to happen.

 

OK, heres an example - I stopped the bot after it spun around in circles, stopped, kill the mob, and then mined the node.

 

Before - it spins while a mob approaches it, then stops, kill its, and continues as normal.
