Is there a required order in the Collect step?

No. You may do your Collect abilities and take essences off components in any order, and an essence collected earlier can pay for a collect cost later in the same step (for example a Death gained earlier can pay for the Cursed Forge). A sensible habit is to take the fixed income first, then decide what to do with Vault or Windup Man, and finish with flexible choices.
