Walkthrough[edit]

Begin by purchasing Map Fragment (fine) from a Quartermaster (Drizzlewood Coast). Complete Olaf Olafson's Secret collection and find the key, afterwards complete Treasure Sleuth and find the vault, then you can start collecting Memories of Otter.

Memories of Otter will start dropping from Tribune's Chests and the Magnificent Chest in the northern Drizzlewood Coast meta event after the Significant Otter achievement is unlocked. They will continue dropping after the achievement has been completed — additional copies can be used to purchase extra Otter's Blessing Enrichments from Laurel Merchants.

Memories can only be used after unlocking the Significant Otter achievement, even though its possible to obtain them by salvaging Charged and Volcanic Stormcaller weapons before that. Consuming a Memory after completing the achievement will trigger a random animation even if a character doesn't have the enrichment equipped.

As of the current research a Tribune's Chest yields 1.2 Memories on average and the Magnificent Chest yields 6 Memories on average. This adds up to 12 Memories per full northern meta event, requiring ~27 meta runs to complete the Significant Otter achievement (320 Memories).

Drop research from Tribune's Chest and Magnificent Chest can be found here.

Notes[edit]

Salvaging a Stormcaller weapon will yield memories of otter, even if the Significant Otter achievement is not unlocked.
