Corrupting a Tabula Rasa

Hi, I just would like to know is using a vaal orb on a tabula rasa will change anything on it except I heard it allows your gems getting +1 lvl when on it?

Is it right? I mean, the sockets will stay white right? :p

Anything to be afraid of when using a vaal orb on a tabula rasa? Just the +1 on gems will happen?

• Nothing
• Change some sockets to white (this wouldn't have any visible effect on a Tabula Rasa)
• Reroll the item into a rare with random mods and sockets
• Replace the implicit mod with a corrupted implicit (there are 9 choices for a chest)

Uh, did you edit your OP and replace the content with an entirely different question? Please don't do that, it makes the thread very confusing. It's better to post the new question in a reply.

Any one of four possible effects may happen:

• Nothing
• Change some sockets to white (this wouldn't have any visible effect on a Tabula Rasa)
• Reroll the item into a rare with random mods and sockets
• Replace the implicit mod with a corrupted implicit (there are 9 choices for a chest)

So you have roughly a 1 in 36 chance of adding the +1 level to socketed gems mod, and a 1 in 4 chance of bricking the item entirely. Whatever the result, the item will also get the corrupted property, preventing any further crafting (including with another vaal orb).
