It is a good stat to have for the mobs. In PoE2, accuracy is missing the accuracy stacking ascendancies/items. If accuracy also provides damage/attack speed/crit, then it's a good stat to stack.

Can you upgrade the quality of corrupted items in PoE 2?

In Path of Exile 2, you generally cannot increase the quality of corrupted items because corruption is a final modification that locks the item, preventing further traditional crafting like adding quality. However, you can use specific Tainted Currency (like Tainted Catalysts on jewelry) or apply certain Hideout Bench recipes (for sockets/links) or Divine Font options (for corrupted gems) to modify corrupted items with unpredictable results, but standard quality currency (like Blacksmith's Whetstones) won't work.
