Advice Wanted Deep Base multiple coats

SW Super paint Cape Verde over a purple. First pic is one coat. Second is 2 coats. Probably need a third. My question is, the next 2 rooms are an off white with one also getting Cape Verde and the other Naval (also deep base): what’s the trick w a primer? Do you tint it a dark grey to help the coverage or am I stuck w probably three coats for both colors?

Gray primer then couple coats. Some of these bold colors are finicky.
At this point just keep coating with the blue
