Delirium Manor is making a return. A mailer just went out, as well as a front page news item.

https://www.play.net/gs4/news.asp?id=1609

Here are some more details on this event while it's at Bloodriven Village.

• All doll accessories are now in a shop for tickets.
• Most common and uncommon treasures have moved to a prize pull (similar to the one that we used at Ebon Gate). The cost is in tickets.
• Bloodscrip will now drop ~10% of the time inside in small bundles.
• The shops in Bloodriven Village will be open that take bloodscrip, including HESS.
• HESS has no new inventory. Any scaling that occurred at June's Duskruin will be present. Anything that sold out will still be sold out.
• Items that were refunded/exchanged during or after Duskruin's run will be back on sale.
• The arena, heist, sewers, and dig are all closed.
• Many of the jackpot items from the previous Delirium will be returning, such as the magic hat and keys. There are also many new items.

Feel free to ask any questions. Teasers that are inside the jackpot feeder will come tomorrow and/or Friday.

While hunting and finding treasure chests, you may come across an envelope that has a chance to contain a free entry to Delirium Manor. The majority of envelopes will just have a poster for your viewing pleasure. If you don't want the poster, feel free to TURN it and make some confetti!

These envelopes are just additional treasure, and don't replace any other treasure drops! These will continue to drop until August 26th.

I have not done a DM, and I am not sure I get it.

The simucoin store is selling multiples of tickets, why is this necessary? Do you get booted from searching after X time?

:D

Yes, it's been a bit but you get I think 10 or so searches if I remember, then picked up and pulled out...Although there is a chance to dodge the hand so to speak from being pulled out and get more searches.

It's not an event that typically yields alot of great stuff. When they first released it, they ended up doing happy hour for it and shit to double the treasure.

The big draw of items were the doll parts and stuff to build a full doll to turn into and all. The jackpot items weren't too bad, at one point rotflares were a prize too in there.

Out of alot of events Simu holds, this one wasn't one of my favorites due to how crappy the stuff was.

Lightening and deepening notes will also return!

This alone and the finding of bloodscrip during an unscheduled Duskruin month makes it a decent event.

Jackpots aren't to be reasonably expected (depending on gameplay) but just icing.

A few other improvements look good, as well as another chance for those that wanted to shop or buy enchant certs etc from HESS.

I've ignored this the past couple of times since I've been back. What is the point of the dolls anyway? Are they just an interactive fluff item in the end or do they serve some other grand purpose?

Skip the event. For $5 I'll give you one of my five F2P mules containing an inventory full of the garbage this event drops. After a few runs it will straight up max out your 500 item limit and you'll be leaving stuff on the ground if you want to finish using your tickets. And I only bought in for a single 50-count booklet when it was around last. You'd be better off donating your money to a kickstarter labeled "Heroes Journey".

Was this the event where chronomage spheres were dropped? If so I found that to be a fairly nice treasure to accumulate. Besides doll parts, what are the other main types of things that drop?

They are fluff but fully unlocked you control an NPC doll while driving it inside.

Everything he posted is probably outdated as numerous changes were posted. Most of those drops sound like moving to an optional prize pull (for tickets), or to a prize wall. So, a lot more tickets found and less turning in of doll accessories for tickets.

Expect finding tickets, some bloodscrip, l/d notes, maybe other things or if super lucky a jackpot find. Not as much item management as previous runs.

The spheres have a holder too that can be found and stores those as well.

It's disappointing that another event has just turned into more duskruin buying items for money. Not unexpected, just disappointing.

Yes.

Type ticket in game. You may have some to spend already from EG tickets from EG 2016 or earlier that converted to it.

Delirium works a bit differently than most of the other "feeder" games. I know I saw some questions on T5/T6, but there really isn't anything like that for Delirium. We have unique finds which are a healthy mix of what you'd think are T5/T6, uncommon treasure (T4), common (T3), and SimuCoin Store items (T2). While comparisons in quality can be made, it's just not the same layout from behind the scenes.

That all said, let's talk about some of the top end finds!

The "vesperti" bloodrune cloaks
Magician hats
Fireworks press
Tart kiln
Rapture cloak
Living cloak
Whisper backpacks
Forehead gems
Phoenix
T4 RainboWear
Locker expansions
Yfane Gowns
T3 Lapidary Box
Black Ora mask
Water cannon
Hidden vambrace
Troll-arm sheaths
Disarm bracer
Greater elemental flaring weapons (previously sold at Duskruin)
Padded armors (previously sold at Duskruin)
...and tons more

In the common and uncommon feeders you'll get bloodscrip. Uncommon will have lightening and deepening notes, as well as a Chronomage orb holder. The SimuCoin store items are Chronomage orbs for, spellup pills, death salve, feather charms, guild vouchers (professional and adv. guild), and temp enhancive charges.

Heh:
>ticket
You take a moment to recall the tickets you've collected...

Reim - 1000 ethereal scrip.

I have not done EG since '09 so I am not surprised.

So for currency we now have tickets, bloodscrip, seashells, simucoins, silvers, and probably more that I have missed.

I am getting dazed, confused, and somewhat disgusted.

If you need notes to lighten/deepen your containers or some Chronomage spheres, I recommend this event. Otherwise, not so much.

Me too and I'm sure I'll never use it, if anyone wants it. If the event is even still active.
