Critical Strike

Corrupted Gear
Corrupted items
can be obtained from all content rather than only Ny'alotha, but play a big role in optimizing performance, as many of the effects can be very powerful at the cost of potentially debilitating side effects. Dealing with these effects can also play a major role in encounter strategy, so pay particular attention to your level of corruption and reference the boss tips listed above.
Exactly how much corruption you want to stack or what corrupted pieces you want to use is dependent on what you have available to you, and you can read up more about Corruptions, how they work, and which are best for your Fury Warrior in our
Fury Warrior Corruption Guide
.
