Yikes gathering is way too confusing

[Stellafreyja]

I was told you can only turn in collectibles for scrips 12 times a week? So by that calculation, it makes it seem like the maximum I could get is around 400-500, so it seems like doing that to get a full set would indeed take many weeks. Is that wrong?

Custom Deliveries (to Zhloe, M'Naago, or Kurenai) are collectibles that can be turned in 12 times per week (6 per person, so you will always miss one). You gain at least 100+ Red/Yellow Scrips (depending on the collectability, not including bonuses for certain items) per turn in, so you can easily make 1500ish scrips in a week.

Regular collectibles can be turned in as much as you want (i.e. The Rowen's House of Splendor's tab).
