In the TCG.

Everlasting Affliction is a Warlock talent in the Affliction tree that increases the critical strike chance of [Corruption], [Seed of Corruption] and [Unstable Affliction]. In addition, each time you cast [Haunt], [Drain Soul], or [Drain Life], it has a chance to reset the counter of your [Corruption] spell on the target.

Tips and tactics

It may be necessary to clip and recast Drain Soul while the target is under 25% HP in order to ensure Corruption is properly refreshed.
