Vaaled an item and it kept it's implicit+also gained a new one



As the title says, I hit this with a regular vaal orb and it has 2 implicits now, it's original AND +2 to warcry gems.

Is this a bug? I've never seen it and can't find anything in the patch notes.

no that's not a bug. You can now have corrupted items with dual implicit's because that came into the came in 3.5.
yes, it is a bug. Made a post about it but no responce from GGG.

Vaaled some Saffell's Frame-shields, some lost the all-resistances implicit but one kept it:

well since GGG haven't confirmed anything then it's a bug claim.
And the items you linked is fine as I understand the new corrupt crafting mods.

so, just vaaled another shield:
it lost the 20% Spell-damage-implicit:

Can you specify where in the patch notes I can find that? I had a look at the 3.5 and 3.6 patch notes and couldn't find anything about double implicits that come from vaal orbs, only from incursion league mechanics.

Thanks.

sure it's here -->

the corruption mods introduced alongside Incursion will remain as Vaal Orb outcomes, but you may need to wait until 3.5.0 for a reliable way to double-corrupt items.

So no bug here. :)

Thanks for the quick reply. However that just states that the new implicits that were added in Incursion league (ex. Attacks/Spells have x% to critical strike chance) will remain in core until 3.5, presumably until temples are added. It makes no mention of an item getting 2 implicits with a normal vaal orb, or retaining its normal implicit while gaining another.

Feel free to correct me if i'm wrong.

well I stand corrected then. This is really strange. I wonder if GGG will tag the items "as bad" and fix them later....

This is in fact either a visual bug or a game bug in general. It's not double corruption you're simply corrupting a mod onto the already specified implicit mod. Whether this is intended or not is yet to be seen.
