This Low Investment Strat is (WAS?) Being Slept On. [PoE 3.23]

Check out my brutally honest intro to Path of Exile here: • This is Path of Exile
Path of Exile's Affliction (PoE 3.23) League has been out for a week now and I wanted to try out a new currency farming strategy. I did not think it was gonna be this INSANE. This video goes over how I farmed up a decent amount of divines in just a few hours using Kirac's Memories of Survivor's Guilt. Memory farming is actually pretty amazing and easy to do as long as your build can handle the extra modifiers, and pairs REALLY well with the Affliction Mechanic.

cool vid! rly enjoy the way you put music and u have good voice. keep it up this format is rly enoyable m8!

Thanks! I'm glad you like the format, it's a little experimental for me, I'm trying different things out to find a format I enjoy making, that doesn't take me weeks to put together (this only took me a few days!).

If someone want to try this strategy and have a strong build use a delirium orb on the map to increase the number of monster in the map for more drops

It's the little things like this we tend to forget, thank you.

[@Ryo39]

I was not expecting the Galdin Quay theme, nice and relaxing

[@SchwingyGaming]

One of my absolute faves

[@wqweqwet1804]

Unironicly did it wrong. So you put the maps on t1/t2 to make them as easy as possible, then you put a deli orb on the map MAKE SYRE YOU CHISEL. Then for the first map you was 85-90+ quant, then the second you want 100%-110% quant, the third is 120-130+, and the final one is 140-150+ quant you want to shoot for. Then you Vaal them. The only time you don’t Vaal or roll over the map is if you get beyond. Beyond is better than 10 or 20 quant. Heck I ex slam them if I get a low quant beyond map. Then you go to wild woods once you first enter the map. Snort ALL the juice you can. The league mechanic will be juice. If done right you should have more fractured shards than the guy in the video.

[@SchwingyGaming]

That is awesome to hear! I love this kind of stuff! At no point did I think what I was doing was optimized in any capacity (I mean, 10 minutes per map? Come on lol), I was just playing the game and trying it out, and STILL had great results.

[@dyablo9024]

beyond is worth a lot more than 10-20 quant because it just starts a chain reaction with infinite potential creeps so you want beyond on every map and especially on the last map, also you will get a lot more shards if you wear 2x perandus rings which give you 2% chance to drop scroll of wisdom on every kill and then those wisdoms are being converted into random shards

[@user-fl9kz7us6p]

@@dyablo9024sorry call it out but beyond are not infinite anymore, for large samplesize quant testing (mf crimson temple) results were close to 20% more loot (for 100 quant it is 20% quant, for 140% is 28% quant). ou also. hier tiers= harder maps=more quant, ya not for the leguestart, but later ofc tier 16. also magic find (i heard this memory is mfable so. more rarity= better. )

[@Lockness06]

Does atlas tree has any impact on kirac maps ? And why do you add one deli orb ?

[@user-fl9kz7us6p]

@@Lockness06 so no. t16 as a starting point for memory is a good thing cus mods rolled on a map. deli = more mobs, more loot

[@tuckvison]

Oof watching you click those chaos shards in the wildwood... I immediately knew what tier of strategy this would be.

[@LetsGenocide]

Those memories are 100c+ but are still worth to run, especially if you deli-orb + vaal the maps. Barely got together 100c to buy a first memory and now I'm sitting on a couple of divines. Really fun strategy! Thanks!

[@SchwingyGaming]

I'm glad it's still worth it even at that price! I didn't think prices would go up by that much...

[@SchwingyGaming]

You're welcome I guess?

[@Vandosh]

its not really due to one vid lmao people need fracturing orb, and its the best place to get them it's still profitable as fuck at 1 div the invitation

[@SchwingyGaming]

@@Vandosh yeah people are blaming the vid, and certainly in those first few days I do think it was responsible for the price going up, but now relative to the cost of fracturing orbs, it might even be better profit than when I did it??!

[@Vandosh]

@@SchwingyGaming it might be, ik last league it was 50c for the invit for 140c the fractur so x2.5 ish profit, yet when u pay 1 div for 4 map, and in MF u get 1 fracturing on average so 3 div profit.. but u can be lucky and get one orb in one memory and then it's a fking 23 div profit in 4 map

[@NarsBarso]

Oh my LAWD I had no idea you could modify the memory maps 😵‍💫😵‍💫😵‍💫😵‍💫

[@downtownMojo]

I bought one memory. Got 3 fracturing shards. One of them even came out of a barrel. 200c profit. Thanks!

[@InfoRanker]

I tried to search for these but nothing came up on the POE trade site. Your link didn't show the filters, curious how you found them. Cheapest was 55c

[@SchwingyGaming]

I just typed Kirac's Memory of Survivor's Guilt into the search bar :) but yeah, prices went up!

[@SpecShadow]

I usually buy the cheapest memories from the trade and use them to push for Atlas completion.

[@SchwingyGaming]

Yeah I just learned about doing this while making this video! Seems really clever!

[@Yuripo360]

i did that with magic find tier 1 for like 120c each memory and 1 deli orb por map and profit like 20 div on 6 memorys so even with the higher prices its worth it

[@edrsa]

Ran this recently, got 1 exalt shard and 1 fracturing shard which was nice :)

[@bubblehulk7647]

Loved that this looked like a good strat for any build, not just bow build go fast like every other currency farm…

and we have now hit the 1div mark

tkx good idea xd i am poor man , because start game.... but i have some questions T1 map can use this way？

Yep you can do this in T1 maps, unfortunately, the prices of the memories have since doubled so you're looking at more of a medium investment strategy now....

[@gavhd2611]

was looking at this build as a new player as a friend said its quite solid but was wondering besides being good to start what would you rate it out of 10 on a fun scale

[@SchwingyGaming]

I would put it at a 6 lol. Below my expectations in terms of fun.

[@gavhd2611]

@@SchwingyGaming What builds would u rate in the 9s or even 10 on a fun scale

[@SchwingyGaming]

I'm a sucker for all the cyclone cast on Crit builds, but typically they're not great starters as they can be expensive to get going and they're definitely not new player friendly. Otherwise some of my favourite builds in terms of fun have been hit based fireball builds (would probably go inquisitor for that), spectral throw builds (ranger just gets so much movement speed, they always feel good to me) and honestly spell totem builds, they are super beginner friendly imo, since you can plop your totems down and focus on dodging enemy attacks, letting you learn the game more quickly.

[@Billy4321able]

Just FYI rarity won't affect your harbinger shard drops. This has long since been confirmed. Invest entirely into quantity if you can. Memory loot conversion works differently here than archnemesis monster loot conversion. So whatever juice gives the most quantity of items dropped is your best bet. So probably yellow followed by blue, then purple last.

[@SchwingyGaming]

Gotcha! Thanks for sharing that critical piece of info!

[@SyntheticaYT]

Where was it confirmed that the conversion in this map doesn’t respect rarity? Only thing I found is talking about IIR not applying to map harby drops.

[@snaxximan5737]

Item rarity does apply when you kill conversion rare mobs. It will be twice converted.

[@ez8392]

Was wondering why memory prices spiked to 80 - 90c

[@NannaPurpL]

I came here to look for the reason the price went up a lot, and I found the reason =)

[@Altek2k]

I ran 1 of these for 85c and yielded about 42c. So first 1 was a loss of 40 cc. Maybe just unlucky as didn't get a single fracturing shard.

[@SchwingyGaming]

Yeah, I don't think it's nearly as good at that price. These things got hyper inflated from this video. Maybe with mf gear and going all out with deli orbs it's still worth it, but it's no longer a low investment strat unfortunately... Maybe in a few days or longer the prices will settle a bit lower again.

[@emerio-kun4475]

A Magic Finder build can increase fract shards drop rate?

[@SchwingyGaming]

More quant = more loot so yeah it definitely should. Don't know about rarity having an effect though.

[@cheesecakenl1980]

Did any of you actually try this kirac memory on a bigger sample size? Looks like OP only ran 5 or so and seemingly got lucky with 17 fracturing shards in 25 maps. The memory is about 1 div rn.

[@SchwingyGaming]

I can't speak for him but I later found out that Aer0 had been doing them for a while in bulk for good profit. As for right now, I think it's still profitable at 1 div per since the price of frac shards has gone up astronomically as well. When I was doing this a fracturing orb was under 10 div whereas now they go for over 30 from what I hear. That said, is it better currency per hour than some other strats like mf cemetery or jv or burials? Probably not but I don't know for sure, haven't ran any memories in over 3 weeks now.

[@veritaseru]

I"ve seen comments that say blue wisps are the ones that actually increase drops.. anyone else confirm?

[@shadowblu77]

This has been my secret strat since memories released. I didn’t think it would finally be brought to light. 😔 when everyone complained about no currency that league, I had a so much because of these harbinger memories lol. They were literally 5c a memory

[@SchwingyGaming]

I randomly stumbled on them when I simply heard someone say in a stream that this memory in particular was fun to do. They didn't even say it was good, just fun. I looked it up on the trade site, saw reasonable prices and gave it a shot. I didn't even know these harbinger memories existed, the only ones anyone seemed to ever talk about were the Einhar ones. I'm honestly still surprised nobody else had made a video on them. I could totally see these being mega profitable with a really powerful build. Prices are going back down slightly mind you, in a couple weeks, nobody will remember!

[@isasitis9685]

​@@SchwingyGaming You can see on Poeninja how the price went up right after your video. And it won't come back

[@Lucaz_NJ]

idk how you guys don't make currency on this even with these prices. i get around 4 - 7 fracturing shards per. memory. just chisel then alc/chaos to over 100 quant and 40+ increased pack size then just use 1 deli orb and then you should start making bank also prices are already dropping: currently 75c

[@Jay-lc8sy]

-buy a bunch of these memories -make a video about how much these memories make -sell the memories -profit

[@dinkleswerve9959]

Damn Schwingy manipulating the market I see. The real investment was the 200 kirac memories he bought in preparation of this video dropping! (Jokes of course). Great to see you makin another farming video! I really enjoy the off-meta farming methods you show us! Hopefully next time the price on whatever your big brain finds out will stay a bit more stable. :P

[@SchwingyGaming]

I should have bought more than a total of 8 memories I guess lol. I can't believe the cost would triple from a single video like this, seems wild. Good to hear from you man!

[@alcatraz6528]

prices got high so the rewards stay lower or even get in the minus sad... but good vid buddy

[@thiagosquinca]

QoL tip: use any compatible controller to pick things from the ground since you dont have to precisely click things (and you gonna do this A LOT if you juice the maps correctly) Some things i learned while farming this last league: - rarity doesn't scale the same way on these memories, so stacking quantity seemed to be much more important over anything else - the setup i did for the 4 maps were: chisel, alch/scour until 80/80/100/120 quantity for each map, then any deli orb (and if you are strong enough you can exalt and vaal) - t16 doesnt give that much more reward than a t1 map, isnt worth the difficulty if your build cant zoom juiced t16 map these memories only drop shards of currency, so wont drop anything that doesnt have a shard (divine, for example), so the only way to increase the chance of getting divines are incubators and currency deli orbs.

[@Cevap05]

What would you say is a sweet spot in terms of map tier to run? Also any map preferred to start with?

[@thiagosquinca]

You can only choose the first map. I liked lookout a lot, strand is also nice The map tier doesnt make that much of a difference. I took all of the voidstones out and went with t1-t4 always, since my build kept dying on anything above that lol

[@SchwingyGaming]

Great tips! Going for controller would take some getting used to though haha

[@thiagosquinca]

There is an option to clear the map normally on keyboard without picking up anything, then go to character selection screen, switch to controller just to pick up stuff. The downside is losing 1 portal

[@danielherman9095]

I do this with mf gear High quant and don’t care about rarity because currency is not effected by rarity. I can make about 1.5 divs per run. Edit: It was way better when the memories only was 25c each

[@Mizerka_]

worth noting, this is only way to mf harbis

[@snaxximan5737]

Item rarity does not work on Currency. The reason why it seems to be that purple gives you more loot is because of rare mob item conversions mods. If you kill a rare mob that converts all his item drops into uniques, the increased rarity increases the amount of higher tier items that mob drops and the memory converts those drops to shards.

[@SchwingyGaming]

Yeah that's what I was trying to get at...

[@kittiez711]

I thought rarity didn't affect currency? Only quant does?

[@SchwingyGaming]

It's quite possible, having only done a few maps at that point I only mentioned it cause that's how it "felt". But also I'm not sure how it works in this instance since from my understanding, items are generated with rarities in mind and then get converted to currency shards, so my thinking is that uniques have a higher chance of turning into high tier currency? I honestly have no clue how it actually works.

[@TheVictor003]

Don't mind if I yoink this strat. Those memory stonks are going to the moon

[@SchwingyGaming]

Let us know how it goes in a video!

[@zovoloo]

well thanks. that's what i have done the past leagues cos those memories were cheap af. now ppl will raise the prices and it will not be worth running them. that's what i'd say if i was a hater lol. profit will sink tho (buying vs what they earn in general, not being super lucky) you could deli some maps in higher tiers and try to roll for beyond (or have it on the atlas anyways) harbingers spawn beyond -> beyond spawns harbinger -> spawns beyond.... dunno if it still works this way but we had some pretty huge summon loops glad to see some ppl that still play the game on a casual base keep it up mate

[@Jaze92]

memory maps ignore the atlas tree, no?

[@zovoloo]

@@Jaze92 that's possible. i dunno what lead to the summon loops. we rolled beyond on every map so i can't guarantee atlas has any effect on it. but deli + beyond on kiracs memories can get pretty ridiculous xD

for those of yall thinkning about this, they are very very tedious to run, lots of tiny shards to pick up and tons of prox sheilds, they do make bank through

[@SchwingyGaming]

The shards thing is definitely a factor, which is why I mentioned which filter I used. If you've got it on something that isn't strict enough, it would drive anyone mad lol. And yes, the proximity shields are worth bringing up and I should've mentioned them in the video. I was lucky that I happened to be playing DD ignite which proliferates through the shields, so I didn't even notice them at all. A friend of mine playing a different build tried a memory and said it was way too frustrating because of those shields.

[@johnturtle6649]

these memories are a divine in standard ... and on average they pay out 2-3 fracturing shards per five maps. not arguing anything here, just giving my experience. it IS profit, but it can be kind of slim. now, if you actually DROP one of these memories, absolutely run it, theres no downside.

[@SchwingyGaming]

Yup, at 1 div a pop, it's certainly expensive. In trade league these have gone up to 60c+ and even at that price I'm finding it to be less profitable than some other simple strats. It is nice not having to worry about selling all kinds of odds and ends.

Every league im buying like 30-40 of these to get fracturing shrads, you can go on a dry streak more often then not tho, imo not worth it to pay more then 30c for them. Now that people will buy them and realise that theyr build can't do it or they don't get anything it will be fun to flip them, ez profit. Now i feel like a KZbinr, buying a large amount of something, cherry picking the clips and making big bank of those who don't know better. Ty

[@SchwingyGaming]

While I cherry picked the clips for the montage (I made sure to include all my deaths to be fair), I showed a full map where nothing of note dropped. I think this league, with the affliction mechanic, it's likely much more consistent that previous leagues. 22 fracturing shards across a total of 28 (not terribly optimized) maps seems pretty consistent to me. But maybe you are correct and I got lucky (for sure with the mirror shard).

[@restarting9213]

@@SchwingyGaming That with the cherry picking was not meant to be a offense, in the end you want to show what you got, and with the mirror shard you got extremly lucky yeah, last league we ran 6 man group with a 115%quant/680% Rarity Culler for 1 week straight those memories and got 2 mirror shards.
