Can you corrupt uniques in PoE?

Yes, you can corrupt unique items in Path of Exile (PoE) using Vaal Orbs, which can add a new implicit modifier, increase existing rolls (sometimes beyond normal limits), add sockets, or even turn the unique into a rare item, making it a risky gamble to potentially enhance or brick your gear. Once a unique is corrupted, it's permanently altered and can no longer be upgraded or modified by other currency, so it's best done with items you're willing to risk or have backups for.

Do corrupted gems gain XP in PoE?

Yes, corrupted gems in Path of Exile (and especially PoE 2) can still level up through normal experience gain, and even gain levels from corruption outcomes (like +1 Level from Vaal Orbs/Omens), allowing you to reach level 21 or higher, but they must be upgraded using uncut gems (like a level 20 uncut gem for a +1 corrupted level 20) or simply leveled via XP if they lost levels. The key is that corruption adds potential, but you still need to feed them higher-level uncut gems or gain XP to max them out.
