Corrupted items cannot be modified again. on a normal skill gem. These gems perform similar actions as their uncorrupted versions but with added effects such as changing a projectile's direction or summoning a double of your character.

Vaal Skills may be used only when enough souls have been collected from slain enemies. Collected souls are saved to the zone instance they were gathered in. Changing zones or resetting the instance will start a new soul counter, but returning to a prior instance will "remember" the souls you left with. Collected souls are lost if the Vaal Skill Gem is removed from its socket.

The Vaal civilization may have existed thousands of years ago, but it had its own form of Skill Gems. Brutally powerful and fueled by the sacrifice of foes, these gems are the ultimate version of many contemporary Path of Exile skills. Vaal Skill Gems charge up as you kill enemies and can be unleashed for a devastating effect. Where applicable, cosmetic microtransaction effects do work on the equivalent Vaal skills.
