Collections

Collections are groups of 7 themed loot items. Almost every job tier has at least one collection. The Underboss and Boss job tiers in New York, along with the El Cacique tier in Cuba and Dragon Head job tier in Bangkok, are the only job tiers with no associated collections.

How to get Collections
Specific collections can be obtained by
 * completing the jobs in that collection's job tier
 * trades with other players
 * the Daily Chance
 * Money Laundering
 * the Free Gift program.

If the player collects all 7 items of a collection, it can be vaulted. This will use up 1 of each of the 7 items and grant the player a bonus to their Health, Energy, Stamina, Attack, Defense, Loot Drops, or bank depositing.

Once a vault has been carried out on a collection and all 7 items are found again, it can be revaulted, rewarding the player with a specific Boost. Revaulting can be done as many times as there are complete collections available, with the exception of the Daily Chance collection, and ones associated with special events such as the Easter Crime eggs.

It is entirely possible and probable to master a job tier and still not have completed a collection in that tier, prompting trades with other players and redoing jobs in finished tiers in hopes of looting the missing item. It is also not uncommon to have all but the same one in every collection (ie: the 6th item). The one item that is the rarest to find in each collection seems to vary from player to player.

The Collector, Curator, No Razors Needed, Master Collector, and Back in the U.S.S.R. achievements can be gained by completing and vaulting various collections.

The total bonus in skill points or other benefits that can be obtained by vaulting every current collection is 43 Health, 47 Energy, 10 Stamina, 21 Attack, 37 Defense, +10% Loot Drops, and -3% on bank deposits.
