Strategy
This is a Delirium boss-rush: slot three Delirium tablets into ordinary maps, rush straight to the map boss while killing whatever is in the way, then close the Delirium and collect Simulacrum Splinters. Delirium makes monsters stronger, which means more frequent Divine Orbs and a chance at valuable Liquid Emotions along the way.
The “gamble” part is the anomaly maps. Between regular maps you head for special unique maps such as the Jade Isles (Rakiata lineage) or the Sacred Reservoir (Garukhan), set up to maximise lineage gem drops. One day can produce several Rakiatas, the next nothing at all, so the creator frames it as a long-run strategy for players who enjoy chasing big drops.
Atlas Tree & Setup
- Main atlas: take more item rarity, which raises the chance of rarer Liquid Emotions
- Delirium atlas: nothing to change
- Atlas master: Jado, with the nodes for an extra modifier on corrupted waystones, a 5% chance to reveal anomalies, increased tablet effect, and lineage gem drops
- Waystones: tier 15, six modifiers, corrupted so Jado’s node applies (tier 16 maps can be sold instead)
- Regular map tablets: increased stack size of Simulacrum Splinters, and Delirium encounters more likely to spawn unique bosses. If you want a Grand Mirror to spread Delirium to cities, use a tablet with a higher chance of Fracturing Mirrors
- Anomaly map tablets: Visions of Paradise (lets you enter the map a second time), a Master tablet with the “also counts as a Forest map” mod (paired with a Forest lineage-gem node on the atlas), and an Overseer tablet with waystone quantity nodes
Investment & Returns
- Investment: low (tier 15 maps plus tablets)
- Returns: about 30 to 40 Divine per hour from Delirium drops alone, plus high-variance lineage gem jackpots
- Scales with luck on anomaly maps rather than with gear
Step-by-step
- Roll tier 15 waystones to six mods and corrupt them
- Slot three Delirium tablets and rush to the map boss, killing monsters on the way
- After the boss, close the Delirium and pick up Simulacrum Splinters
- When an anomaly map appears, swap to the anomaly tablet set and run it
- Use the Visions of Paradise second entry (tablets do not apply the second time)
Risks
- Very high variance: some days give no lineage gems at all
- Delirium monsters are much stronger; the build must handle them while rushing
- Base income without jackpots is modest
- Tablet and gem prices shift through the league
