Everything About Delirium Explained in Path of Exile 2

[@Dredswich]

Thank you for the video. You explained Delirium in a well manner with a soothing voice. "now it's time to talk about our emotions" lol good one.

[@Fatman67]

The fact that none of this shit is properly explained in game is baffling. How are new players supposed to figure all of these details out ?

[@lifewithoutpants_]

I'm really hoping that for the full release they improve on a lot of things that have been lack lustre in the Eearly Access. New Player Information is a BIG one to get right as soon as you can.

[@paranoyed8931]

I am a new player and don’t know any of this but I do know the team at GGG made endgame maps player ready in about 2 months after vessel of hatred got the reaction it did. From my understanding the initial plan was to release just the campaign. All this to say I think this is still a work in progress and from their standpoint gameplay and skill interactions is the top priority with QOL to come later

[@thealonestargazer]

on the map you can also view the points of interest and what each means, not entirely useful at all but something for new players

[@mariuszel759]

Imagine that poe1 is even worse in this regard

[@lifewithoutpants_]

@@mariuszel759 Yes and no. The in-game information is absolutely worse. The wiki information is *extremely* detailed. The official wiki is even hosted by GGG, and contains an insane amount of information.

[@CrimsonEnvec]

Wow! Wow! This is probably the best guide I've seen on this. You explained it well. Informative and in a very structured manner. Can't wait for the rest of them. Thank you!

[@KodiakDuck]

Thanks for the explanation! I missed the delirium league in poe1 and only knew about anointing amulets. Checking out your expedition video now

[@robertrichard4861]

Thanks for the video! I had no idea i could Distill maps. Best low lvl maps ever!

[@kevkas]

Thanks for making the guide, and for answering all of my questions during your stream regarding Delirium. ❤

[@lifewithoutpants_]

Happy to have helped! ❤

[@thanhn.5168]

Thank you so much for this explanation! With so much going on screen, I never even noticed the delirium counter at the bottom. Also didn’t know about the fog dissipating in a donut fashion. I do notice the timer but I always thought it was just because it’s ending or I didn’t kill enough. So TY! Please explain the concepts and tips for the other map mechanics as well!

[@stadiamaster9103]

Please do similar guides about Ritual, Breach and Citadels/Monolith/Arbiter(s)... it's not easy to find proper and comprehensive guides about POE 2 endgame mechanics! ... and ty for the delírium and expedition guides!

[@stevenanderson724]

My favorite thing about poe2 videos is all the people acting like it's not early access, but a fully complete game with two yeas of dlc.

Much needed guide, thank you !

I clicked the sub button just because I'm always in full control of my emotions.

[@trancer03]

its very hard to see where the fog starts and stops could use some work

[@J.Squatch]

I was gonna comment the same myself. Some maps are really bad for it too.

[@lifewithoutpants_]

@@J.Squatch Yeah, some maps area really bad for it. When I was demonstrating it on stream the day before, we basically couldn't tell that we were in Delirium at all 😢

[@crookers2135]

thanks for the guide mate

[@maxmacleod8068]

Hey your annointing icebreaker, but an easier way of grabbing it is a From Nothing Diamond with u can allot nodes in a small radius of Eternal Youth. Costs 3 div and only takes a jewel slot vs your annoit slot. This allows u to annoit the OP Lightning rod (I got it, its 100% worth the cost)

[@egaspro]

Finally some clarity on Delirium. Thank you! Most reward level I got was by opening breach inside delirium mirror :D Was quite fun :D But thinking maybe trying waypoints with mostly suffixes, because lots of prefixes on t16/117 usually end up being too RIP'y :) Now I know why :D Questions: - Is there a way to know how delirious you are when doing delirium mirror? - What are go to's for instilling maps? I was doing 2 most commons ones: magic monsters quantity and pack size, but maybe some other ones are worth it instead of selling them? - Pinnacle boss is fine? Not bugged or anything? - Weird that most streamers do not have any points in that tree, while having maxed out some other ones - surely they must have had saved for 1/2 delirium pinnacle fights while maxing out other trees?

[@lifewithoutpants_]

There is currently no in-game way to my knowledge to determine what % of delirious you are under whilst in the mirror. In PoE 1 it was 20% at the beginning and ramping up with distance. It was also very "vibes" based, as you notice after a really long map, that normal mobs are taking little to no damage 😀 I use anything that is self-farmed to avoid having to pay for it, and that gives a decent %delirium. Packsize is awesome (Guilt) as it directly scales the number of monsters you have, and therefore loot. Pinnacle boss is not bugged afaik (its a 15 min encounter, rather than a boss though, even though the bosses do turn up), its just not many streamers like running Simulacrums. Its also not great content, as its very repetitive.

[@RobertoCorsini]

Notable thing about the passive tree is that the Travel nodes are not considered Small nodes for the purposes of things that affect Small nodes. So they are a separate node type. Travel, Small, Notable, Keystone, Jewel

[@lifewithoutpants_]

Does this mean they are not affected by the "50% increased effect of small nodes" ascendancy?

[@RobertoCorsini]

@@lifewithoutpants_ Yep it does

[@lifewithoutpants_]

@@RobertoCorsini Well there goes my 4th build. 😅

[@RobertoCorsini]

[@lifewithoutpants_]

@@RobertoCorsini I think I will give str stacking a go maybe. Im already at Polymathy on my Deadeye, who might get a rework too.

[@YM-ex8hh]

I have never noticed there is a button to end delirium session. I will need to try another delirium map to see if it shows for me

[@lifewithoutpants_]

Hopefully you don't have to try to see through me to get to it ❤

[@Terrapin311]

legit quality vid!

[@losolosonsky]

what is the price checking addon you use??

[@lifewithoutpants_]

I'm using Sidekick, I have a vid about it on my channel if you want to see a few examples.

[@OsmoticEel]

Amazing vid mate, thanks, even if we have to talk about our emotions 😂❤ Gonna do ritual next maybe?

[@lifewithoutpants_]

Might have to put out a SCIENCE vid first from my findings of the UNID Tier item levels, and then get onto Ritual. Maby Breach too?

[@wolfster3448]

Thank you! great vid, I'm new to PoE and that was very helpful! I have a question that's not related to the video, what is the skin of the portal you're using? and is it still obtainable?

[@lifewithoutpants_]

The portal I am using is called "Kingsmarch Portal Effect". It is a reward for completing challenges in the current Path of Exile 1 league (I think you need 34/40) and its pretty attainable as far as challenges come in POE1.

[@CarlCozyBaby]

How do I open the distilling? Nothing opens or works when I press them.

[@lifewithoutpants_]

Are you right clicking the Distilled Emotions? It should say when you hover over it too. Left clicking won't work.

[@mas0ny149]

Hey, I was wondering regarding the percentage of deliriousness. In poe1 I think it caps at 100% with a massive mob damage reduction, but in simulacrums it goes to 140% which is way higher than the Max in poe2. But I think in poe1 it's like 90% mob Dr but that wouldn't really translate over to poe2 right especially with the 140% deliriousness value

[@lifewithoutpants_]

What were you wondering? 😀

[@mas0ny149]

@@lifewithoutpants_ how does the value of delirious scale with damage reduction that mobs have

[@lifewithoutpants_]

@@mas0ny149 Only up 😄 It is not precisely known for PoE 2 yet. The only thing we know for sure though is that the more Delirious the player, the higher the Damage Reduction for mobs, and the more Damage they do to the player.

Open your Atlas Skilltree and mouseover where it says 0/8 points below any of the trees and it will tell you what you need to do in order to get points for the respective trees.

Huh this explains a lot. Nice video. Nothing personal, but I genuinely wish ggg cancels this build, its a nerf that the whole player base actually needs.

[@zoolzoo4434]

delirium is when the screen turns black and white and some extra mobs come and probably freeze your game. then if your lucky you can pick some crap off the ground. ggg refers to this as an end game system

[@busfahrer09]

I'm playing PoE since Open Beta and endgame in poe2 is totally underwhelming and pointless. Without these videos you're just aimlessly strolling around doing some kind of maps, nothing is really explained. It's hard but you can figure it out what's happening in poe1 when you reach lvl80s and above but poe2 is just yawn and a constant "how did Ziz do this and that...", no learning curve involved whatsoever.
