Corruption is positive Blight, specializing in retaliatory spears and increased health regeneration at the cost of base defense and movement speed.
Spears have a chance to be summoned when the Corruption user takes damage. All Corruption spears pierce Intolerance, and scale their damage with the player's Attack Stat.
Obtainment
Corruption is obtained at a 1/5 chance from the Gacha in Baima's Well, which costs 1 Prestige to roll. This makes it the easier Blight to obtain as Purity (negative Blight) is much harder to obtain. You can also obtain positive Blight by killing a player who is carrying a raw Ego Stone or by waiting in Baima's Well for 7 hours (5 for premium players).
A unique image is displayed on the player's screen whenever they gain positive Blight, which indicates their current Corruption Tier.
