==Legacy variants==
Any variants of Soul's Wick are [[legacy item]]s as it is removed from the [[corruption transformation]] (e.g. use vaal orb on the jewel) drop pool in [[version 3.23.0]]. However, only jewel that dropped from the monster/divination card, etc. before [[version 3.20.0]], are non-corrupted.
All variants can only be obtained from trading with other players in the permanent leagues, with the exception on creating Soul's Wick that have corruption implicit(s).
Players can still trade with other players in permanent leagues to obtain a non-corrupted Soul's Wick, and then try to corrupt the jewel to potentially obtain one corruption implicit (or two from [[Altar of Corruption]]); It is not obtainable in temp league since version 3.20.0.
