The Collector is easy to complete for Tannis, but after I had completed playthrough 2 and hadn’t got any of the others. I spent ages in the Hyperion Dump killing claptraps and never got anything apart from Gears and Motherboards.
I then gave up and realised I had missed some of the SDU missions. I started to do playthrough 1 of the Claptrap’s New Robot Revolution, but being LV 69 it was very easy.
Once I got to the Interplanetary Ninja Assassin Claptrap (MINAC) I killed it silly fast.
Then I had the idea of farming the MINAC area for claptraps, they keep respawning so fast and the MINAC could barely touch me.
I got my fastest Combat Rifles which had a large magazine size.
Once you get to the MINAC take out all the guns and rocket launchers on the MINAC, once you have done this the fun starts.
There are only about 5 places where the MINAC stops and only a few routes it takes across the map. At the start just follow the MINAC around, get close to the doors at the front and wait for them to open (try not to get run over but that is not really important, just annoying). Once the doors open just fire your combat rifle in burst as the clap traps spawn. You can kill about 10 quite quickly and they start to drop the loot. Don’t bother picking things up yet, just keep following the MINAC around, and kill as many clap traps as you can once the doors open.
After a while you have piles of loot all over the place. Then just run around and collect them all. Hold X and you collect massive amounts in one go. It took me about 30 mins to get all the collection based missions.
Doing this when you hit LV 69 is easy but I expect you can do it at lower levels too.
