Best use of memories?

So I just realm'd for the first time and I have 91.52k memories. But I'm not sure on the best way to spend them. Before the realm change the class I was best at was Shaman, but obviously it'll be a bit before I'm at that level again. Thanks!

Max reclaimed methods first - extra crafting dust helps with overall progress as well as realms.
If your realm edust and catalyst multipliers weren't maxed, probably max reinvented techniques and reclaimed methods next - they'll both give a bit of profit as a side effect but the extra edust and catalysts boosting the multiplier should be a more efficient way to get more memories than small profit boosts.

Maxed Reclaimed Methods and Brazen Ambition IMO. The increased dust is obvious but runes you'll want too because of the legacy levels that'll require a lot of completed trials (from your point of view) but even after that, Milestone levels are always important. I'd also be surprised if Restored Rituals and Reinvested Techniques aren't also mandatory to keep Catalyst and Enchanting Dust multipliers as high as possible without having to draw out your realm time. If you have the auto idle expedition market purchase, then bold followers is going to have a lot of value. I'd avoid benefits that aren't useful to all classes until you feel like there's only one T1 and T2 class that you like. Or until you have enough memories that it's fairly harmless to get them all.

As for imprints, I always like having at least one level in Red Spectrum Synthetics, to speed up the very beginning of a realm, the rest I'd spend on what ever you think will get you more memories. Then a level in Blue, one in green and then dump the rest into Engineered Ancestry.

Chance are pretty good each realm will be shorter until they're about two weeks or less and any decisions you make, you can always do differently the next realm (there's a reset option offered just before you start a new realm the second time).

Thank you both!
