How to Beat diamond collector

IGT · AI strategy guide, updated August 2026

Type of play

Must-hit/accumulation state play: you’re buying into a partially completed “diamond collection” meter that improves the Free Spins bonus.

What to look for

Game/theme: Diamond Collector (Wolfpack or Elite 7’s). Same strategy for both.
Current diamond count: shown on the bet pad for each bet level/denomination.
You’re hunting machines already built up with diamonds (the meter is the edge).

When to play

Primary trigger: Play when the meter shows 12+ diamonds collected (on the bet pad).
Reason: Bonus triggers at 15 diamonds, and the bonus quality scales up with diamonds collected. 12 is a conservative entry point unless you know the machine is on a higher RTP setting.

How the bonus/edge works (quick floor explanation) Free Spins can start two ways: Collect 15 diamonds (meter completion), or Land two Free Spins scatters on reels 2 and 4. Diamonds don’t just trigger the bonus—they add bonus modifiers.…
