Alva's Memory of Cascading Fortunes

Alva's Memory of Cascading Fortunes is a powerful tool in Path of Exile, offering a cascade of rewards through a chain of strongboxes. Here's a breakdown of its mechanics and potential benefits:

What does it do?

  • Upon using this memory on a completed map, it activates a sequence of three interconnected strongboxes scattered across the map.
  • Opening the first strongbox triggers the chain, spawning more monsters and potentially additional strongboxes near the next in the sequence.
  • This progressive chain continues until all three strongboxes are cleared, offering potentially substantial loot and increased difficulty with each stage.

Benefits:

  • Increased Loot: Strongboxes are known for yielding valuable rewards, making this memory a potential source of currency, uniques, and crafting materials.
  • Challenge and Experience: The escalating difficulty and monster density provide thrilling combat encounters and can be a good way to level up or test your build's capabilities.
  • Vaal Orb Opportunities: Strongboxes have a higher chance to drop Vaal Orbs, valuable currency used for corrupting items and unlocking unique effects.

Drawbacks:

  • Increased Difficulty: The chain progressively increases enemy difficulty, so be prepared for challenging encounters, especially on higher map tiers.
  • Time Investment: Clearing the entire chain might take longer than a regular map, so consider your desired pace and efficiency.
  • RNG Influence: While rewards can be substantial, they ultimately depend on RNG (random number generation), so success isn't guaranteed.

Tips for successful runs:

  • Build Preparation: Ensure your build can handle the escalating difficulty, focusing on strong defenses and damage output.
  • Map Choice: Consider running the memory on maps with good strongbox layouts for increased efficiency.
  • Clear Speed: Prioritize skills and tactics that enable quick clearing of mobs and strongboxes to save time.
  • Vaal Orb Considerations: Decide whether you want to prioritize Vaal Orb drops or maximize overall loot from strongboxes.

Additional notes:

  • Alva's Memory of Cascading Fortunes is highly valued by experienced players as a potential source of wealth and exhilarating challenges.
  • You can find detailed guides and discussions online exploring specific strategies and loot expectations for this memory.

Remember, the choice to use this memory comes down to your preferred playstyle and risk tolerance. Weigh the potential rewards and challenges carefully before embarking on your cascading adventure!
