3.16.0b Patch Notes

The Tainted Mythic Orb can now unpredictably upgrade Corrupted items to Unique items even if their item level is lower than when it would normally be able to drop. Prior to this change, the orb would fail to apply to the item if there were no valid Unique items to upgrade to.

Mechanics

  • In order to be used, an item must be upgradable in rarity. A unique item is already unique and can therefore not be used with a Tainted Mythic Orb.
  • Tainted Mythic Orb can upgrade a corrupted item to unique rarity or destroy it.
  • The created unique item will keep its base item e.g. Ruby Ring can upgrade into Emberwake
  • Tainted Mythic Orbs can only create drop-anywhere uniques and will not create drop-restricted uniques.
  • Using Tainted Mythic Orb on influenced Item will keep the influence Symbol but loose the influence modifier, as a unique item does have specific modifiers.
  • It is possible to upgrade a corrupted fractured item to a corrupted fractured unique item. The fracture modifier can change to another fractured modifier.
