To improve both multiplicity, anomalous signal and dose-proofing from a single 
crystal - complementing the thread and papers suggested so far and thinking of 
a strategy that covers low symmetry - the excellent approach introduced at the 
SLS (Basu et al, http://scripts.iucr.org/cgi-bin/paper?S2059798319003103) to 
offset chi/kappa at each 180 degree pass done at very low dose per pass is a 
great strategy. one can exploit one crystal as much as possible by trimming the 
set later if decay is an issue. 

Other than that, multi crystal strategies come in handy with their own 
downsides, but if reproducible enough crystals are available then that route is 
a good one, too. an early reference by gumiero et al is great 
(https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3020733/)  and one of its latest 
implementations by ebrahim et al is also great 
(https://journals.iucr.org/m/issues/2019/04/00/ec5012/). 

cheers,
