that's a unique jewel from a vaal reliquary that someone opened and vaaled into a rare. not an uncommon outcome.
Hello,

the thing is i vaaled dozens of these unique crimson fleshstones when the league was active.

it usual outcome was either




saying that the item outcome is usual seems wrong to me

especially because the item information isnt correct anymore also.


to my knowlegend shiny items with rare mods shouldnt exist!


it usual outcome of corrupting was either these two.

Not the one i posted in my starting. Shiny with Rare mods and still in the category of being an unique item :S

its just rng

a vaal orb on a unique jewel can do 1 of 4 things, with equal chances

add corrupt tag, nothing else
add implicit
turn into 4 mod rare item
turn into vaal only unique jewel


you just never had the 3rd option happen to your shiny jewel. its still a 25% chance to happen, which is not uncommon.


the one in your OP is not a unique item, its a rare. its a 'shiny' item. but it is 100% a rare item. it says unique because whatever you're using to info dump is getting confused by the 'shiny' part.

Well when i CTRL + C in game on the item it says its an unique as the stats i copy pasted and mentioned above.

And i vaaled more than 100 of these crimson stones and it never happend this way if you say its 25% chance that seems impossible.



but probably you guys are correct and i just refuse to understand it lol

the in game ctrl + c feature when hovering over the item. so the integrated way to dump info...

yes when i paste it into the chat it appears as rare text. okay i guess this is solved then



but i thought rare items cannot be shiny ones anyway. Or its the first one i have ever seen.

prove me otherwise :p

i dont understand it really, a foil item when turning into something that has rare mods would normally lose its foil and not keep it ?

as rare items with foil are not a thing


foil are limited to uniques.


if you say this item is 100% rare then why does it have foil and why the dump info tells otherwise saying its an unique.


can som1 else confirm this is nothing special as an item? thank you <3

found the answer after a while

"Fixed a bug where foil maps retained their foil art in certain corruption outcomes."



patch notes 4.12.


in other words this item is an outcome due an bug and shouldnt exist as i already mentioned.

seems like the bug didnt only affect map foils but also jewel foils ;)

only map would lost its unique art

the rest of the ex-unique item keep it
