Minecraft Dungeons II guide
Treat Soul Corrupted drops as an enchantment budget
In the Gamescom preview, applying enchantments through the Enchantsmith required a down payment from currency dropped by Soul Corrupted enemies. Treat those drops as an enchantment budget, then spend only when you have a keeper effect and item.
Soul Corrupted describes the enemies in the preview source; it does not give the payment an announced item name. The useful question is whether the payment helps a well-defined enchantment decision.
What the preview says
The August hands-on connects currency dropped by new Soul Corrupted enemies with the Enchantsmith's enchantment down payment. It does not provide a drop rate, farm route, color guide, or a formal name for the currency.
Treat the payment as a budget
Save the payment when the next effect does not suit your current job or the item is likely to be replaced. Spend it when you can say why a library effect helps a keeper item. That is a practical limit even without a published cost table.

Use the right next decision
If the issue is equipment power or a built-in buff, move to the Blacksmith decision instead. The payment relationship belongs to the Enchantsmith path, not every improvement in the loadout.
