Memory Tears are more common in lower tier maps

Bug Report ID: #156818110

After running 50+ T16s. I started going down a tier. When I got to T12, I got a Memory tear. The other day, when I had not had a tear in a while and then got my next character leveled they got a Memory Tear in a T1 or T2 map really fast. I cleared them with my first toon and tried to get more in T16, but didn't for a while. Back to my second toon and within a map or two got another.

Really feels like there is a higher chance to get a Memory Tear in a lower tier map which feels pretty bad for gameplay. Something is wrong, but this is the best I can figure out atm.

What are you referring to as a "Memory tear". Are you referring to items dropping with Memory strands?

To my understanding, memory tears are only in T14+ maps. I haven't really been playing so I can't screenshot what a memory tear looks like, maybe you could screenshot what you're referring to so other people could better respond?

Memory Tears are the old memories. They spawn in your map, player clicks on them, and then it spawns a worm-style memory of like 4-5 maps in a random direction starting at the map you clicked it ending with the boss map.

I believe the quest chain has minimum thresholds similar to Maven/Eater/Exarch where you need to do them at maps above a certain tier, but then after that they can spawn whenever. Annoyingly, if you click one on a new char at a lower tier map, it will spawn at that tier map and ignores any changes to voidstones (which also avoids cheese farming on T1 maps).

As for spawn rate, there is still some factor I'm not fully understanding for the spawn rate. I get a very high amount of Seers + Mists from high pack size and modifier effect, but seems to also impact Memory Tear spawn rate. I'm still averaging a Memory Tear every 20 or less maps in T16's with my best rate being 3 in 20 maps. Sold a handful and bricked a few, at least 20 Tears completed so far?

I want to confirm this behavior.

I've started two alts, one is still in campaign and the other reached maps and got level 92 and I haven't played them in a few weeks.

It has been weeks (I play daily) since I've seen a memory tear. I spec'd into more chance for tears on the atlas nodes at the top of the tree. I ran Kirac missions as others suggested. Nothing.

I read this post and tried a T8 map. Nothing. Then I tried a T1 and got an immediate memory tear.

I suspect making a alt character resets progress internally somehow.
