Paranoid Fixation Notable Question (Delerium Tooltip)

I have spec'd into increased deli orb drops from maps. However, my question is, does this apply to only maps where the delerium is applied through a mirror of delerium? Or does this also work when using delerium orbs on your maps (like 100% deli for instance).

Been running 100% deli for a few days now, and haven't seen a single delerium orb drop anywhere, can someone clarify? The tooltip is misleading.

Thanks.

Edit - spelling

Did you spec into unending nightmare?

That causes delirium orbs to not be able to drop.
Thanks for all the fish!

I assume he means Paranoid Fixation exactly as he ment, you know, the one that gives you a chance to find delierium Orbs.

"Dlirious Unique Monsters in your Maps have a 1% chance to drop an additional Dlirrium Orb." (And some other stuff). Top left, just south of Meticulous Appraiser.

As to the question at hand, I'm not 100% sure, it should apply to any Delirious Unique Monster (Map Boss and uniques spawned from the fog itself, like Omniphobia), as long as you opened the map (i.e no Kirac missions).

It shouldn't matter if the Mirror was there or not. But that's just a careful reading, I have no testing data to say in either direction if it works the way its written.

One thing to note is Paranoid Fixation is only giving Unique Monsters the bonus, to which there are only going to be one or two of in a given map. The "Delirious Unique" I take to mean either a Delirium Boss, or a Map Boss which has gained a Delirium Modifier. So assuming you find one Delirium Boss, each map you'd have two shots at a 1% to get 1 Orb from the passive. So you're only expecting one every 50 Maps or so, which doesn't feel like you'll notice it often in terms of finding orbs. The 25% Bonus to get orbs as rewards leading up to it seem fine for that end.

This could be why because my mapping build is so mapping and pack sized focused I dont bother with unique mobs/bosses.

Thank you for the detailed exp.
