Mechanics

The first part of the Delusions of Grandeur perk reduces damage taken while you are in your Nova Bomb animation--which is actually very useful since you should only use Nova Bomb when you are outnumbered or need to quickly kill an enemy before they finish you off.

The second part of Delusions of Grandeur increases the duration of the Energy Drain effect, which in turn results in a greater reduction in the grenade cooldown time. Basically it increases the duration from 5 to 8 seconds which in turn increases the cooldown reduction from 3 seconds to 4.8. This is essentially the same duration boost you gain from The Hunger and they do not appear to stack, so in essence the Skull may actually give you The Hunger ability and just not have a very accurate description.
