What do the corruption items do exactly?

I killed 4 of the mirror bosses and got a few corrupted items and not quite sure what they do exactly.

They have an additional purple affix at the bottom & can’t be crafted on.

They can actually do more than than just add an affix. They can increase or lower the tier of an affix, they can change the subtype, they can ruin an item, etc.
Here’s a table of possible outcomes:

Yeah, that’s what can happen if you corrupt an item, but he asked what corrupted items were & if he’s just looking at the ones that the campaign Omen drop then the link you gave isn’t pertinent (since the items wouldn’t have existed in a pre-corrupted state.

But yes, the corruption rune can do stuff.

Do all drops from omen boss always drop extra affixes (still haven’t had time to try out the new season)? I would have assumed that they drop ā€œnormalā€ loot that then gets corrupted, meaning you should be able to see all those outcomes.

No, sometimes they are regular drops but most are corrupted to some extent.

Sometimes the affix is a prefix, so it’s at the top. I have seen that they ā€œcanā€ drop with 2 corrupted affixes. I haven’t dropped one but one of the folks on chat posted a link to one he dropped.

I’m enjoying the Forge Guard and i’m just playing my own game style and not using a guide. I’ts pretty cool… I"m basically looking at the weapon damage and how fast it swings.

They drop a rune of corruption, an idol altar & 5-10 items half of which are pre-corrupted. And some timeglass (& maybe some runes/etc).
