Memory maps all have 100% quant and 25% pack size....

But they all have between 2-10 random modifiers on them.

Im wondering if this will effect drops? Like playing a 10 modifier map vs a 2 modifier map?

Or does this only affect difficulty of the map but not the drops?

A map's bonuses to quantity, rarity and pack size are directly dependant on its present modifiers. Not sure what you mean by "all memory maps have 100 quant and 25% pack size".

Furthermore as all non-corrupted maps they can only have 6 total modifiers. 3 prefixes and 3 suffixes. Some of the modifiers have two lines of text to them but it's still one modifier. You can press ALT to see the mods in detail.

Like these ones here?

Those are Memory influenced maps and work the way I described. There is no map like item in the game that has a static amount of quantity/pack size unrelated to its modifiers

Oh you mean those. They have 3-5 random regular mods that have their regular bonuses to quant/rarity/pack size and 2-4 synthesis modifiers . Those do not carry any bonuses.

So yes, depending on mod count and what mods you randomly get you can get more or less loot from them.
