contents We compute the Hilbert series of three-dimensional $\mathcal{N}=3$ quiver gauge theories by taking a specific limit of the superconformal index. Our approach introduces auxiliary fugacities associated with symmetries which, while not present in the full theory, arise as effective symmetries on specific branches of the moduli space. By evaluating the index in a limit governed by these parameters, we successfully isolate the Hilbert series of the desired branches. We validate our results against the literature and provide several new extensions. We focus primarily on linear and circular quivers with unitary gauge groups, which originate from Type IIB brane configurations involving generic $(p,q)$ fivebranes. We further generalise this approach to star-shaped and orthosymplectic $\mathcal{N}=3$ quivers. Finally, we investigate the geometric branches of affine Dynkin quivers, demonstrating agreement with known results, while offering new predictions for unexplored cases.
