Is a corrupted implict or a clean better? - Div card help

Keep it clean. Let people take the risk if they want it. Some people like the implicit.
Can't say I have an opinion either way. Sometimes I want a nice corrupted implicit, and sometimes I just really need more attributes for a build.
Seems you all are equal in opinions :x

Problem with a question like the one you posed, you will see a split almost down the middle due to there being only 2 answers.The choice ultimately comes down to personal preference, do you like getting items that are corrupted? or do you prefer to corrupt them yourself?
Man's Hurbris is such a fickle thing.
Corrupted pls bb

Helping people with their builds, its somewhat a hobby, and a passion of mine, so don't be shy!

Hmm, if you corrupt it yourself, it can change to a totally different item.
I think that is not going to happen if you trade your set for a corrupted one.. so chances are better to get a decent one, right?
"Ta-Ta, not-a-cockroach"
Clean of course. Theres no reason not to be. All other random % uniques are clean.

Unless you wanted to go into lore and specify on the card "corrupt heart blah blah..."
afaik corrupted implict make cards rarer
"Is there such a thing as an absolute, timeless enemy? There is no such thing, and never has been. And the reason
is that our enemies are human beings like us. They can only be our enemies in relative terms."
If the item you create is a Belt, Ring (except Unset) or Amulett you always should make a corrupted item on a divination card in my opinion.

Those slots can roll powerfull and interesting corrupted mods for various builds - they also can enable some "Johnny-builds" which is a big benefit to the game. On the other hand "Spike-builds" enjoy the min-maxing potential through divination cards.
If you prefer the stats implicit on your jewelery that is fine, but than you can get it in the regular game easy - getting a specific corruption is much harder.

Chest Armours and 2h Weapons should never be corrupted i feel because most people actually wan't to use the sockets and link it (the implicit mostly is less powerfull than a potential 6l in that slot) - getting 1500 Vaal orbs is a pain and getting all that in a temp league is way to much effort for 99.8% of the playerbase.

Now with enchantments introduced to the game; i would never do a corrupted helmet on a div card because the enchantments are more powerfull than most corruptions. For gloves on the other hand the corruption is mostly better than the enchantments you can get. For boots it is not straight foreward but i would also tend to get an enchantment on there in 80% of the case.
