   Viral damage is dealt in a small area of effect, and 1 / 2 / 3 / 4 spores are transmitted to each enemy within 8 / 10 / 12 / 16 meters.
  • Spore damage and burst damage are affected by Power Strength. Burst damage will only be affected by power strength on spores attached to the initial target.
  • Each damage tick has a moderate status chance. Enemies affected by the status effect will have their health reduced by 50% for 6 seconds.
  • Spore duration is affected by Power Duration.
  • Modifying the duration to a non-integer value will produce an extra tick of reduced damage when Venom expires.
  • Cast range is affected by Power Range, while the spread radius is not.
• When spores are popped on a target, one damage tick is removed from the target for the remainder of the duration. All secondary targets in range will be applied with a new duration of Venom. The primary target's duration is not renewed unless a secondary target's Venom is popped, applying a new duration that is separate to the previous duration.
• It is possible to "remove" Venom from an enemy by completely popping all the spores on that enemy.
• Conclave rating: 10 / 10 / 30 / 50.

Can be used to destroy Corpus cameras and (active) turrets. A spore will appear but a camera dies on the first tick.

Using both maximized power duration and power strength, each spore can deal 22.9 damage per second over the course of 38.55 seconds while increasing the energy cost to 38.75 and reducing the cast range to 17 meters.

Maximization is a form of specialization: mods may be blended to result in values that vary between the top-end limits listed here. Click any maximized link to learn how to build it.
Venom has a special quality where increasing both Power Duration and Power Strength increases total damage.

• Maximized Power Duration increases the spore duration to 38.55 seconds.
  • Reduces cast range to 20.4 meters.
• Maximized Power Efficiency reduces the cost to 6.25 energy.
  • Reduces the spore duration to 6 seconds.
• Maximized Power Range increases cast range to 141 meters.
  • Reduces the spore damage to 4 per second and burst damage from the initial target to 10.
• Maximized Power Strength increases the spore damage to 22.9 per second and burst damage from the initial target to 57.25.
  • Increases cost to 38.75 energy.

All spores popped from secondary targets (including the original target if Venom is reapplied) will deal the usual 25 damage, while any of the spores from the initial cast will have additional damage from Power Strength.
