== How to Corrupt an Item ==
== Uncorruptable Item Types ==
*'''Recipe''': Place the Orb of Corruption into the Horadric Cube with another item and press the Transmute button twice.
:Normal (white) items
*Any item can be corrupted with the recipe above, EXCEPT the following (cannot be corrupted):
:Items that already have sockets
:* Normal / White Items
:Ethereal items
:* Items that already have sockets
:Charms
:* Ethereal items
:Jewels
:* Charms
:* Jewels
* A single item can only be corrupted once.  The word "Corrupted" will then appear in red text under the item's description.  Items can only be corrupted once.


* Items that have been upgraded (e.g. normal -> exception -> elite) can still be corrupted, and vice versa.  However, some items may benefit from being upgraded prior to corruption  to increase the maximum number of possible sockets obtained by a successful corruption. For example, Skin of the Vipermagi has a base maximum of 2 sockets (Serpentskin Armor) but an upgraded maximum of 4 sockets (Wyrmhide). For more information see [[Corrupting for Maximum Sockets]].

* Corrupted items that did not gain sockets can still be socketed through the Larzuk quest, but not the Horadric Cube recipes.

Bolts* When tested in game during season 13, bolt corruption chances were not the same as arrow corruption. Over 30 bolts and 30 arrows were tested. Arrows seemed normal. Bolts never "brick" into a rare and never "cnc", instead the vast majority of bolt corruptions get 5% all res.
