Path of Exile 2 Delirium Farming Guide: Earn 80–100 Divine Orbs Per Hour with the Best Simulacrum Splinter Strategy

Summary

Looking for one of the most profitable farming strategies in Path of Exile 2? This Delirium-focused setup combines 200% Delirious Cities, optimized Atlas passives, and budget-friendly Tablets to generate 80–100 Divine Orbs per hour through Simulacrum Splinters, raw currency drops, POE2 Currency, and consistent endgame rewards.

Why This Strategy Is So Profitable

The core objective is simple:

Farm massive quantities of Simulacrum Splinters

Complete Simulacrums for direct sales

Generate large amounts of raw currency

Take advantage of Delirium's increased monster density

Unlike crafting-heavy strategies, almost every valuable drop has immediate market demand. Simulacrums remain one of the most desirable endgame items because players continuously farm them for Voices cluster jewels and other exclusive rewards.

Raw Divine Orb drops further increase consistency, reducing reliance on lucky unique item drops.

One important factor is Item Rarity. Even if your character isn't designed around magic find, having roughly 80–100% Increased Item Rarity significantly improves raw currency returns. During testing, approximately 97% rarity produced noticeably better Divine Orb drops compared to lower-rarity setups.

Setting Up 200% Delirious Cities

The strategy revolves around running 200% Delirious Cities instead of ordinary maps.

To create these maps:

1. Obtain a Grand Mirror.

2. Apply it to a City map.

3. Increase Delirium progress until reaching 200%.

4. Begin farming only after the city reaches maximum Delirium.

Cities offer one enormous advantage over regular maps—they allow players to use four Tablets instead of three.

That additional Tablet dramatically boosts monster density, Delirium rewards, and Simulacrum Splinter generation. Since Tablets remain relatively inexpensive, the extra investment produces excellent returns.

Before reaching 200% Delirium, players should complete nearby maps to gradually increase Delirium intensity. Once fully prepared, the city becomes an extremely efficient farming location.

Choosing the Best Atlas Master

Among the available Atlas Masters, Jado currently provides the strongest bonuses.

The biggest reason is Partial Translation, which grants up to 40% increased Tablet modifier effectiveness after corrupting Waystones and obtaining an additional modifier.

Since this strategy relies heavily on four powerful Tablets, increasing their effectiveness scales almost every reward inside the map.

An alternative option is Doryani, who offers useful bonuses such as:

Improved Volatile Connections

Better Irradiation

Enhanced Calibration

Evolutionary Pressure bonuses

While Doryani remains viable, Jado generally delivers higher overall profits due to the excellent synergy with Tablet scaling.

Atlas Passive Priorities

Fortunately, the Atlas tree for this strategy is fairly straightforward.

The highest priority passive is:

Nemesis Rising

This node dramatically increases the number of Rare Monsters appearing in maps.

Since Rare Monsters are responsible for dropping many Simulacrum Splinters and valuable currency items, increasing their population directly boosts profit.

Additional recommendations include:

Desert Mastery for improved map effectiveness

Forest Mastery where applicable for additional Rare Monsters

Grass nodes for general loot improvements

Every available Tablet Effectiveness passive

Many players debate whether Pack Size or Effectiveness is stronger. In practice, additional Effectiveness often results in higher currency generation because it scales multiple mechanics simultaneously.

Meanwhile, Delirium passives should focus on maximizing fog spread and increasing Delirium coverage across neighboring maps.

Selecting the Best Tablets

One reason this farming strategy is so accessible is the flexibility of Tablet choices.

An ideal Tablet includes:

Increased Simulacrum Splinter Stack Size

Increased Rare Monsters

Increased Pack Size

Additional modifiers such as increased Magic Monsters are excellent but not mandatory.

During testing, Tablets costing only 1–3 Divine Orbs were sufficient to produce outstanding returns.

If prices increase later in the league, players can simply prioritize:

Simulacrum Splinter Stack Size

Rare Monster Count

These modifiers alone still generate impressive profits while dramatically lowering investment costs.

Because thousands of suitable Tablets typically remain available on the trade market, shortages are unlikely.

Crafting the Perfect Waystones

Proper Waystone crafting is another important source of extra currency.

The recommended process is:

Roll a Waystone with four modifiers using an Orb of Alchemy.

Add one additional modifier with a single Exalted Orb.

Apply Effectiveness, Quantity, and Rarity Omens.

Finish the remaining modifier afterward.

This allows all three Omens to function together.

If the Waystone already has six modifiers, these Omens can no longer be applied simultaneously.

Ideal Waystones should include:

Around 100% Monster Rarity

Additional Pack Size

High Quantity

Strong Effectiveness

Finally, corrupt every Waystone.

Corrupted Waystones synergize perfectly with Jado's bonuses while further increasing loot density.

Although this crafting process requires slightly more preparation, the increased returns quickly repay the investment.

Running the Maps Efficiently

Once everything is prepared, the gameplay itself becomes very simple.

Enter the map and eliminate virtually every monster.

Unlike speed-running strategies that skip enemies, Delirium rewards full clears because every monster can drop Simulacrum Splinters.

Fast builds generally complete each map in five to six minutes, allowing roughly 10 maps per hour.

Even slower builds finishing maps in seven to eight minutes still generate excellent profits.

Good layouts, favorable modifiers, and efficient movement all contribute to maximizing hourly income.

Profit Breakdown

Testing over approximately 55 minutes produced remarkable results.

Across just ten maps, the loot included:

20 Simulacrums worth approximately 54 Divine Orbs

23 raw Divine Orb drops

46 additional valuable currency items worth around 6 Divine Orbs

Greater Exalted Orbs

Orb of Annulments

Vision of Paradise worth roughly 5 Divine Orbs

Combined, the total profit reached approximately 85–90 Divine Orbs in under one hour.

With a faster build and slightly better RNG, exceeding 100 Divine Orbs per hour is entirely possible.

Even more average setups consistently earn 60–80 Divine Orbs per hour, making this one of the strongest endgame farming strategies currently available.

Is This Strategy Worth Farming?

Absolutely.

The biggest strength of this Delirium strategy is consistency.

Instead of relying on rare jackpot drops, players continuously earn valuable currency through Simulacrum Splinters, complete Simulacrums, cheap Path of Exile 2 Currency, and raw Divine Orbs. Since Simulacrums remain in constant demand throughout the league due to Voices farming, profits should stay stable long after other strategies decline.

Combined with inexpensive Tablets, flexible Atlas choices, and relatively simple execution, this setup offers one of the best risk-to-reward ratios in Path of Exile 2. Whether you're building wealth for expensive gear, crafting projects, or future league investments, Delirium City farming remains one of the safest and most efficient ways to generate currency in the current endgame.
