The Hungry Loop
Mechanics
The Hungry Loop consumes socketed uncorrupted support gems when they reach maximum level. Simply socketing a gem that already has the maximum level is not enough, the gem needs to be socketed in the ring before actually leveling the gem (by clicking the "+") to its maximum level for the ring consume the gem. Consequently all consumed gems can only result in a modifier of their natural maximum level; the +1 gem level effect from corruption can not be achieved since the 
Vaal Orb needs to be used after the gem hit its maximum level.
When a support gem is consumed, the Hungry Loop gains a modifier that supports socketed skill gems with the maximum level of the consumed support. Gem quality is ignored. The Hungry Loop can consume up to four different support gems. Selling The Hungry Loop to a vendor returns any consumed support gems.
