Hey friend, thanks for being concise. Is it confirmed that uniques will reroll before increasing? I've been buying perfrct widowhails, but if true I might as well just but the cheapest ones and vaal them
Yes. If I remember correctly, Waggle corrupted a low roll Widowhail in a video. The outcome was above regular rolls. That’s one example. I have personally had higher rolled uniques that got bellow regular rolls when I Vaal Orbed.
@@DayOnePatch Seriously, I need the luck. I have not found better jewelers orbs. My Rarity boost is at 90, not sure if I can fit more. I may just be bad at mapping 😒
Fantastic video!! Greatly recommended. Have anyone done research on % chance for the different outcomes? Like is it more common to get the “nothing happens” than the + 1 socket or other stuff? Cheers
if you corrupt a gem for a chance at say a 5th socket. get unlucky and get -1. Can still level the gem. Can you negate the effect or will it always be -1 of whatever you level it to?
Yes. You can't change a item when you have it is corrupted. Except for levelling skill gems with uncut gems. There is also a unique item called "Glimpse of Chaos" that have some unique ways of interacting with "Vaal Orbs". poe2db.tw/us/Glimpse_of_Chaos
5 sockets in like, you can have 5 supports on the gem? If that's the case. The most likely thing that happened was that you got the +1 socket outcome and it already has 5 sockets, which is max, then it shows as nothing happens.
@DayOnePatch yes, it had max sockets. Wtf how is that not "do nothing"?? I thought that omen will force either change of quality or lvl. Ohh well, just another rng gamble
@@MrArchy1986 You got an outcome that the game couldn’t apply to the item. If or when I make an updated video on this again. I’ll be sure to explain this.
Use the information as you want. I can't decide what's best for you in your situation. But yeah... When the item is "done" that,s when you "Vaal Orb" to have the chance of getting that little extra. Can also go to Brickcity, that's where I live.
Oooh. i think that is the correct spelling of many uniques. en.wiktionary.org/wiki/unique Damnit! missed that modifiers thing. well well. Thanks for pointing it out!
Excellent review! Another note, there is also a "free" corruption in the campaign in Jiquani's Machinarium, both in regular and cruel difficulties.
Yeah! Good catch! Forgot about that!
@DayOnePatch you want to use the shrine to double corrupt, not on first corruption.
@@nicolef9018 huh?
@@DayOnePatch you can double corrupt items, first corruption occurs with a vaal orb. Second by using the corruption shrine.
any proof?
Really helpful and concise man. Thank you
Excellent guide!
Thumbs up! No baiting or anything just a solid video.
Thanks!

Can confirm I got a super low roll widowhail drop and after Vaal is now sitting at a very happy 270%
Thanks! learned much from this. Will try to get that 4th socket on my skills 😲
That's great! Good luck!

Sirgog will probably have something on that in the future. :) ruclips.net/user/sirgog
Great video
Glad you enjoyed it
I see people having body armor with 5 rune slots. How do they do that?
It's a corrupted "Morior Invictus" that can drop from "The Arbiter Of Ash". poe2db.tw/us/Morior_Invictus
if you corrupt a gem for a chance at say a 5th socket. get unlucky and get -1. Can still level the gem. Can you negate the effect or will it always be -1 of whatever you level it to?
If you corrupt a skill gem and get the 4th socket, you can never make it a 5 socket right? Would you have to sell and restart?
Yes. You can't change a item when you have it is corrupted. Except for levelling skill gems with uncut gems.

vaaled my 20/20 5socket spark gem with omen of corruption active and ....nothing happened. just turned into 20/20 5 socket corrupted gem. wtf?

Hello! Can you use the Vaal Orb again on a Corrupted item?
No, or upgrade or socket it any further
No! It’s locked. This might change in the future. In Poe 1 you can still anoint amulets, if you have a specific item…. And some other small things.
@@Joshua-ix4bh Thanks!
@@DayOnePatch Thanks!

Does regular rounding actually apply here? By POE standard everything always rounds down
Yes. I know where you are coming from. But when corrupting in PoE 2 it does round up.
So… in general, it’s best to use them after you’ve used all the other modification items, and if you have the omen thing… did I get it? Lol
Use the information as you want. I can't decide what's best for you in your situation. But yeah... When the item is "done" that,s when you "Vaal Orb" to have the chance of getting that little extra. Can also go to Brickcity, that's where I live.
I corrupted a high physical bow before I increased the quality 😭but it gave me an extra socket, still decent 😕
Yeah. I have done that more then once to... :P
Where can I get this item ?
The "Vaal Orb" is a currency item that you can find randomly while playing.
I believe Arbiter can drop T16 waystones
That might be true. I'll keep that in mind when I probably have to make a new updated video later this year. :)
Uniqes
Yeah?
@DayOnePatch you made so typo in the video 🤣 but great video! I comment for the algorithm
Thanks man! Time stamp for typo? :O
@@DayOnePatch 0:53 "UniqUes" and 3:09 "modiefiers", but nothing to worry !
