I believe the seeing conditions have been wreaking havoc on a beginner like me. The last few nights there must of been some high level cloud haze not visible by eye. As tonight tracking was pretty on point I thought.

all my subs came out really nice. So I can't complain. Guess its just a matter of learning the subtleties now and managing each nights seeing conditions.
Looking at the graph to get numbers isn't what you should be doing, look at the RA, DEC and TOT(al) error to the left of the graph. Also screenshots would help a lot.
But if you are getting round stars then i wouldn't worry about tweaking anything
