Delirium, your thoughts? (spoilers)
I personally think this is a amazing boss, unlike all the other bosses in the game, delirium is unpredictable. The randomness of the boss adds more of a challenge, unlike the hush where each stage could be easily predicted and countered. This boss shows a different, fast paced figth every time and is one of the coolest bosses in my opinion. the only downside to him is the super speed combined with random teleporting and bullet hell, this makes its really challenging to see where he actually is during the fight. What is your opinion on the the final boss, if you've actually made it there.

It's mechanics seem nice and will probably be fun and challenging, once they're actually working.

What do you mean? Its an afterbirth/rebirh item. Afterbirth+ shouldn't have broken it.

You must Beat boss with Lost, anyway. Check this - https://youtu.be/AIniAP_ef2I

That video is just black to me.

Also just found out about the item the clicker. Its a new space bar item that turns you into a random other character.

Can't you just beat Delerium with Clover + Daddy Long Legs or other passives with Lost in order to beat him like you could do with Greed/Hush/Mega Satan?

"l. Then die into the lost outside the final boss room."

Didn't mean kill the final boss and then die. Because then you wouldn't need gnawed leaf at all. I mean you clear to outside the boss room and then kill yourself like with bombs or something.

Revive as the lost with gnawed leaf + orbital and then afk in the boss fight until the obital kills it.

I think Delirium is a good new end boss. Three things sort of bug me about the fight.

1) Delirium moves way too ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ fast at points, especially when close to death. At one point, he transformed into one of the Horsemen, I believe it was Famine, and he was going so fast I'm surprised he didn't go to ludicrous speed. I get that Delirium is meant to be Hush on crack, as well as the penultimate final battle, but having Delirium move at the speed of light is sort of ridiculous.

2) The sporadic teleporting. It's hard to keep track of it, with the aforementioned speed issue not helping, and sometimes Delirium can teleport on top of you for unfair damage.

3) This is just a personal nitpick, but I think Delirium should have a more grander death. An example I had is that once it dies, it teleports to the center of the room and starts rapidly shapeshifting into its various forms in their dying animation, and then it reverts to its default form and explodes in a blaze of glory.

Well, that is certainly always an option... unless you are an impatient cone head that is

Nope, he's the only enemy in the entire game immune to Chaos Card.

Well that is absolute ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥.

If the Hush isn't immune, he shouldn't be.

A being of chaos weak to chaos?

Balance > realism

Given how difficult getting to Delerium is, and given that there are unlocks for killing him with Keeper and The Lost, taking away Chaos Card is forced fake difficulty.

I love the boss, I've only fought Delirium once and I've only beat him once. ;) Though I got very lucky with my items that run (Brimstone, Polyphemus, Lump of coal and a AB+ items that I can't remember the name of, when you get hit is does the tammy's head effect)

I don't think this boss is buggy at all, I think Delirium is meant to be still and creepy; I hate to use this as an example but take FNaF, most of that is still images and it's creepy, it works!

So if anything, it's designed to be buggy?

i hate how there's no way to tell which boss room he's in

Next time you complain about how item rooms dont have a good item and you should see whats in there before using a key

Yup. Broken boss is broken. Not in the "it's too hard" kind of way, but in the "it's full of errors" kind of way. It would be really nice if they fixed this buggy ***hole.

Frankly, I don't really want to play right now. I've finished Greedier with everyone, but Delirium is just going to glitch my game over, after such an OP run, like it's done a dozen times now. Delirium is just too error-ridden to even be worth the risk of wasting all that time. This, coming from someone who has wasted a LOT of time on this game (since Rebirth).

All that said, I do like the concept of the boss... it just needs all of the patches.
