The ability text for Parasitic Link just says you "deal increased damage". Increased damage for what? Primaries? Secondaries? Melee? It's not a damage buff. It's a Power Strength buff, one that applies to both Nidus and the linked  target, which the description for Parasitic Link doesn't say.

I don't bother looking at ability descriptions ingame because they're either wrong, incredibly brief, tell you nothing, or all three at once. Easier to just read the wiki on certain abilities that actually test these things and find hidden mechanics that are explained poorly in the game itself.
