I've been redpilled for years now, I understand the tenets of TRP to what I deem to be a good extent, though I have yet to be truly fucked over by a woman which I think is a non-optional step in becoming truly red-pilled, i.e. I have a clear tendency to think that NAWALT though at the moment it is of no consequence for me.

Let's get to the actual topic: I really don't enjoy "playing the game", going out of my way to meet women and making sure throughout the interaction that I'm building attraction, it feels like an awful lot of investment of both energy and time for girls who usually aren't all that interesting or good lays, and the effort required goes up exponentially with how interesting the woman is (interesting as in value: looks, interesting personality and diverse interests). I'd rather spend that time and effort in other areas that actually yield long-term benefits for me.

So my question is this: how high does my status need to get (with relation to context) before girls will actually spontaneously start showing interest at which point I just have to drive it home? I'm currently studying civil engineering so I really don't have deep pockets, though the 'potential' can play in my favor, I have average facial genetics, I dress well, I'm in good shape, lean with some muscular definition but really not striking with clothes on. Which areas should I focus on improving so that I can start to get more 'spontaneous' female attention?

P.S.: I understand this strategy is very suboptimal, and the quality of my encounters will be poorer than actively seeking out women, but as I said I have no interest in continuing to do that.
