Corruption limit for demonic transformations?

Back when I first played corruption of champions 1 and got the demonic high heels and horns, I thought that was all there was, since I never raised my corruption much higher than 20 or so. I know better now of course, but with the new demonic transformations announced for corruption of champions 2, I'm wondering if there will be a similar threshhold where you have to raise your corruption to a higher point in order to gain access to more demonic transformations. Will this be included or will you be able to be a pure white knight with full demon features (I hope the latter).

Corruption in CoC2 is much less physical than it was in CoC1, so I'd assume a demon-morph TF would work similarly to lycanthorn (the corrupt lupine TF); no minimum Corruption requirements for TFs, but grants some Corruption on each use, and you can still stay Pure by using one or more of the various ways of lowering Corruption.

Well, most TFs in this game are cosmetic.
Even if you use those, you will never become a demon.
Similiar to Kitsunes, you can look like one, but you can not transform into one. Only Keros himself can turn you into a Kitsune.

If you look at it from that angle, you just use demonic items as a basis from an alchemical transformative.
You get corruption because of the corrupted residue in one of the ingredients, but it will always work, because you just graft horns or weird feets onto you.

No plans for that, but using demonic TFs will probably raise your Corruption just for using them. No reason you can't work it back down tho.
Very nice, especially with the sanders boi. Helps with the achievement to become a champion after being a dark knight too!

I can see myself save scumming for some exotic oni appearances already...

Speaking of oni, would there be random chances for varying horn amounts if any such demon TFs came around? I know for damn sure that TiTS annoyed me to no end particularly with its Caprophorm, on the entirely random 2-6 horns upon initial transformation, let alone being able to just sparn a veritable forest of like 8-16 horns on your PC's head.

That is not actually difficulty. It is rather easy to get 100 corruption, there are repeatable encounters that give you corruption.
It is just one of the more annoying ones because it takes some time.
(Folded one Thousand Times is the worst though.)

Huh. If you use alchemy there should be no need for save scumming.

Not if there's a chance of different patterns and/or amount or horns and such... such as Manti Nip's wing colours and Cinder/Frostleaf's scale & hair colours.

Not sure about the wing colour, but the rest is something that a trip to the stylist would fix.
Rather new addition, but the dev team really do their best to make save scumming obsolete. =)

Not when maybe half of the colour options aren't available. I don't see dark red or ruby for sale at the stylists'... yet; and yeah, manticore/draconic wings have a chance of being dark red, dark green or black - I personally wanna see white and many other colours available so I can finish my gray lizard with contrasting scales, if not be a pale 'mander with black ones.

True that, I'm mostly just slamming my head as I never get winterstem when I need it to get 10 corruption off for 500 gold compared to 1 for 100

How do you get demonic transformation?
I remember reading that they're enabled in patch note but haven't found any items that would provide them.

Realistically speaking, right now you can use Lycanthorn for horns & wings, Kasyrra has a Halloween event in the Old Forest for the eyes (random chance, one time only) and... I think that's about it so far.
You could technically be a giant imp if you use Brute Beet for the orc's dark red skin colour, too.
