| Source | Exotic Cache (random) |
How to Unlock It
Collector is obtained randomly from Exotic Caches, which are the only source for this chest piece. You earn Exotic Caches by completing weekly SHD level projects, reaching milestones on the season pass, clearing Summit floor 100, defeating the Nemesis in Descent, and from certain manhunt rewards. Since the drop is random, expect to open multiple Exotic Caches before Collector appears.
Hoarder, Explained
Hoarder gives every kill you make a 10% chance to drop an additional loot item on top of the normal drop. The bonus item can be any rarity, including high-end, gear set, or even exotic items. This effect has no internal cooldown, so rapid kills in missions or the open world can trigger multiple extra drops in quick succession, significantly boosting your loot per hour.
Build Tips
Collector is designed for loot farming builds rather than combat optimization. Pair it with gear that boosts kill speed like Negotiator's Dilemma or Striker to maximize the number of kills and therefore the number of bonus loot rolls. Use it when running Targeted Loot missions or farming open-world bosses to accelerate your gear acquisition. For full setups see tested Division 2 builds.
