Need some help getting to 530 collectability.

the best rotation i know for red scrips when you have the ideal stats (115 from unbuffed methodical) is actually:

UC + SM + Impulsive -> Impulsive -> Impulsive ->
................(if at least 1 Impulsive gave you buff): UC + SM + Methodical.
...................................................(if all failed): UC + DE + Methodical

In average this gives slightly more red scrips than the other method and you have a ~20% chance to gather with 530+ collectability so you can farm for counterfoils as well while doing your weekly cap.

It's possible to get 530+ with the Discerning Eye/Methodical Appraisalx3 method, though it isn't as surefire as the other.

that caps at 516 collectability (115 x 1.5 = 172; 172 x 3 = 516). with RNG it's possible that a 0-3 of them come out to 530, but that's RNG talking.

Here's how to guarantee yourself two Chysal Greens with enough rating.

Gather two.

I get in the 520s more often than in the 510s, and quite rarely a 530 or better.

Gather two.

this equates to: 10 item wear methodical (115), 10 item wear methodical (115), 5 item wear methodical (115), 5 item wear buffed methodical (172) or 115 + 115 + 115 + 172 = 517. As Shadygrove mentions above, that means actual gathers are more often in the 510-520 range, and rarely anywhere near 530+.

The most promising rotation, and the one I use is this one, that I've seen before on reddit:

the best rotation i know for red scrips when you have the ideal stats (115 from unbuffed methodical) is actually:

UC + SM + Impulsive -> Impulsive -> Impulsive ->
................(if at least 1 Impulsive gave you buff): UC + SM + Methodical.
...................................................(if all failed): UC + DE + Methodical

In average this gives slightly more red scrips than the other method and you have a ~20% chance to gather with 530+ collectability so you can farm for counterfoils as well while doing your weekly cap.

As he mentions, it has a higher expected payout (if you understand the statistical term)for gathers and it averages around 474-481 collectability, but when you get two impulsive procs will be in the neighborhood of 522+ (decent chance of getting 530+ collectability... maybe 40%?), and three procs will bring it to 583 collectability. As long as one of the impulsive appraisals proc, you are guaranteed 3 gathers of 470+ with the SM (no matter which one proc'd).



Lastly, as a general tip: it's better to gather as many collectables as you can at a lower tier than it is to sacrifice gather chance for a higher tier.

Just used my rotation and got 530 and 531 on two Chysal Greens.

again, a few instances of it working doesn't mean always.

50% of the time at least.

Works for me.

I guess the only thing left for you to do is try it. I've got 695 perception BTW.

[BushWookie]

694 perception, sorry.
