Corrupting Items

Normal / White Items
Items that already have sockets
Ethereal items
Charms
Jewels

Recipe: In the Horadric Cube: Orb of Corruption + the item you'd like to corrupt and press the Transmute button twice.

The word "Corrupted" will then appear in red text under the item's description. An item 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.
