Delirium Mechanic Explained

Timed Area-wide Event with Stronger Mobs

Delirium is a timed event that encompasses the entire area with mist to spawn empowered enemies for you to defeat. This event can be activated upon entering a Delirium Mirror, which can randomly spawn in maps.

Eliminating enemies within the mist will fill up your reward bar found by the lower left of your screen, allowing you to obtain various rewards.

Keep in mind that the Delirium only lasts a short amount of time and will display the timer at the top once it nearly runs out.

Delirium Drops and Rewards

Distilled Emotions

Distilled Emotions are crafting materials used for applying notable passive skills to your Amulets and instill Delirious modifiers on your Waystones. These can drop randomly from the usual enemies found within the Delirium Mirror.

Delirium Tablets

Aside from the usual monster drops, Delirium Tablets can be dropped as well and are slotted on Lost Towers to add more Delirium nodes within range. This will be your most important item for sustaining your Delirium farming so try to pick these up as much as you can.

Delirium Tablets can be crafted and upgraded as you see fit for even more affixes that can benefit your loot economy.

Simulacrum Splinters

Simulacrum Splinters are dropped from mobs in Delirium events which are used for entering the Simulacrum, a wave-based area that increases in difficulty the longer you stay.

Keep in mind that completing a Simulacrum will reward you with skills points for the Delirium Atlas Passive Tree.
