PoE Atlas Memory Maps - Formidable Flashbacks challenge: 150 Explicit Map Modifiers

Path of Exile: Lake of Kalandra introduced Atlas Memories as a new core game mechanic. In maps, you’ll very rarely find a Memory item, which represents a set of memories that an NPC has about their past. Each successive map in the sequence gets more difficult and rewarding as the memories intensify.

Atlas Memories

Atlas Memories offer a way to explore endgame content and earn very valuable rewards without having to specialise your Atlas Tree for it. In high-level maps, you’ll very rarely find a Memory item, which represents a set of memories that Alva, Niko, Einhar or Kirac has. They will provide a sequence of maps for you to explore as you relive the events of their past. These highly challenging and rewarding Memories can either be applied to your Atlas or traded to other players. Alva's Memory Einhar's Memory Kirac's Memory Niko's Memory

31. Formidable Flashbacks(150)

Reach a total of 150 Explicit Map Modifiers from completing Atlas Memory Maps.

In Path of Exile (PoE), reaching a total of 150 Explicit Map Modifiers from completing Atlas Memory Maps is a challenge associated with the "Formidable Flashbacks" Atlas Memory Map challenge. Here's how to achieve it:

Understanding Atlas Memory Maps:

• Atlas Memory Maps are special maps found on the Atlas of Worlds.
• Completing them reveals passive skill points and unveils modifiers for regular maps in specific regions.
• Each Atlas Memory Map has a chance to unveil an Explicit Map Modifier.

Explicit Map Modifiers:

• These are special modifiers that alter the difficulty and rewards of regular maps.
• They can be positive (increased item quantity/rarity) or negative (increased monster damage, elemental resistances).
• There are numerous Explicit Map Modifiers in the game.

Reaching 150 Explicit Map Modifiers:

• To achieve this challenge, you need to complete a significant number of Atlas Memory Maps and unveil as many Explicit Map Modifiers as possible.
• There's no guaranteed way to unveil a specific modifier each time, it's a random chance.

Strategies for Completing the Challenge:

• Run a Variety of Atlas Memory Maps: Focus on completing Memory Maps from different regions on the Atlas. Each region has its own pool of possible modifiers to unveil.
• Prioritize Unveiling Known Modifiers: Some modifiers are more common than others. Look for resources online that list commonly unveiled modifiers and prioritize completing those Memory Maps.
• Respect and Ignore Mechanics: These are specific Memory Map mechanics that can either reveal hidden modifiers (Respect) or prevent them from being revealed (Ignore). Understanding these mechanics can help you optimize your unveiling process.
• Prioritize Completing the Atlas: As you progress through the Atlas and unlock more regions, you'll gain access to a larger pool of possible modifiers.

Additional Tips:

• Consider using a currency item called "Scarab of Memory" on Memory Maps. This increases the chance of unveiling hidden modifiers.
• Joining groups specifically focused on completing Memory Maps can be a time-efficient strategy.

Important Note:

• This challenge is designed to be completed over a long period of time, potentially throughout an entire league. Don't get discouraged if you don't reach 150 modifiers quickly.

Overall:

Reaching 150 Explicit Map Modifiers requires consistent completion of Atlas Memory Maps and a bit of luck with unveiling. By focusing on a variety of regions, prioritizing known modifiers, and potentially utilizing specific mechanics, you can steadily work towards completing this challenge.

Tips

Using this item on a completed Map on the Atlas of Worlds will cause several connected maps to activate a quest chain for the named Master. Speaking to the NPC will provide a dialogue snippet that does not change, as well as an option to open the marked Map. This map can be modified with currency, fossils, and Delirium orbs, and can become corrupted. The map does not use the player's Atlas Passive Skill Tree or Sextants as it is considered opened by an NPC, similar to Kirac Missions. It cannot be modified with fragments. Each successive map opened will have modifiers that increase in difficulty.

The pathing of maps chosen when using a Memory follows the following rules:

• The number of maps chosen are fixed, dependent on the specific memory type.
• It will always choose a connected map.
• It will attempt to choose a random connected map of a higher tier.
• If no higher-tier maps are available, it will choose a connected map of a lower tier.
• Memory paths are not blocked by other memory paths and can overlap.
• Memory paths can choose maps that have not been completed.

Boss-specific divination cards can drop from any monster in the area inside a memory.

Path of Exile: Atlas Memories Guides

In every expansion leading up to Path of Exile 2’s release, we’ll be improving Path of Exile’s end game with new content to explore and new ways to customize your end game experience. In the Lake of Kalandra expansion, we’re introducing Atlas memories. They aren’t a league feature, they’re part of the core game, affecting Standard and persisting once the Kalandra League has ended.

In maps, you’ll very rarely find a memory item which represents a set of memories that an NPC has about their past. Something special happened to them while exploring maps, and you’re able to experience those events for yourself.

Let’s have a look at a couple of examples. In this Atlas memory, Kirac tells you about the time that he stumbled across a staging ground for a Harbinger invasion of Wraeclast. Each successive map you play in the sequence has more and more Harbinger portals and invaders that you must deal with.

This is a memory of Niko’s, where he entered a sequence of maps that were entirely consumed by permanent breaches like a Breachlord’s domain. He survived to talk about it, but will you?

Right click a memory and apply it to a completed map on your atlas. It’ll mark out a series of adjacent maps that the Atlas memory will span.

When you next talk to the relevant NPC in your hideout, they’ll tell you about their recollections and will allow you to start exploring the memory.

Each map in the sequence is provided for free by the NPC and you’ll be able to roll it like usual before running it. Because these maps are memories of the NPC, they’re not affected by your atlas tree. However, the content is generally as difficult and rewarding as a fully specialized Atlas tree would cause it to be.

Each successive map in the sequence gets harder and more rewarding as the memories intensify. While memories are tradeable, they’re also very rare and valuable, so you’ll probably want to complete them yourself if you can.

For players who love lore, Atlas memories help expand on the backstory of key NPCs. For players wanting to try out different league mechanics at quite high levels of juice that they haven’t specialized their atlas for, memories let them do this without a bunch of respeccing. And for everyone else, Atlas memories are a great way to earn some valuable items. If you’re strong enough to complete them.
