Bad gradients, creating stepping in every texture

Hello, 

I havent had this problem in the past, but all my textures are having super harsh gradients. Making this program literally unusable. I will have pictures of a very simple setup. 

 

 

This picture is the graph, creating a very simple rock shape

 

This is showing the AO to kinda depict what is going on 

 

This is being cased by the base shape having harsh stepping. I have tried applying blurs and everything and it doesnt work 

 

Thank you for all the help, i really need to fix this soon.

    Thank you! I'll try the process out without modifying  the graphs bits.

    Look at your slope blur. It is using 8 bits/channel which  is not enough for smooth heightmaps. It is not inheriting the 16 bits from the previous nodes.

    There is a bug affecting inheritance in the current version which Adobe have confirmed they will be fixing in a coming release. In the meantime, as a workaround, you can go to Edit - Preferences -Graph and enable In Context Editing.
