Talk:Specter (Tenno)/@comment-86.169.169.16-20180808174411

There was some infomation regarding Nidus specters that seems to have been removed but I'm still gonna post about this anyway as I just now learned of it myself.

It used to state something along the lines of Virulence randomly casting from the player rather than the specter. I, like many assumed it was just a visual glitch, turns out it isn't.

When Parasitic link has a target (enemy/ally) all instances of Virulence while active will spawn two instances of Virulence with the 'wave' going in the direction that the Nidus is casting. I'm not going to bother asking anyone to test this out but according to the page if the Specter uses the ability in the exact same way it should benefit from increasing damage and gaining more stacks though it's secondary wave cast from the player.
