The cursed memory was an item that could be harvested from cursed wisps at the Wilderness Crater. They could be converted into cursed energy (the amount varies depending on Divination level) or Divination experience at any energy rift.

Despite the item's examine text, cursed memories only prevented the player from teleporting when in the Wilderness. When carrying cursed memories in the Wilderness, players of all levels could attack the carrier regardless if they are in a single or multi-way combat area.

Converting 50 cursed memories was a requirement for the Repressed achievement in the easy Wilderness achievements, but this has since been removed.

Experience

This is the experience given for converting a memory into experience. If it is converted to experience without using energy, then the following experience is gained. If it is converted to experience with energy, then 1.25x more experience than below is gained. This requires 5 cursed energy per memory. An additional 20% more experience is gained if the player is wearing a demonic skull.
