kinda wacky how straightforward it is to build [Nidus], and how theres clear and easy progression to him

because of how well he takes advantage of the umbral set, theres 3 flex slots on him
[Gladiator Resolve], [Teeming Virulence] and [Strain Consume] here are what ive slotted in, just for funsies

[Teeming Virulence] is absolutely stupid, since it scales with ability strength
at 291% strength, it gives 349% crit chance
like what the fuck?

[Strain Consume] because big flesh dog is fun

and [Gladiator Resolve] cause the health and extra crit chance are nice
and theres not much else i need on him

math time, with me
virulence damage = base x stacks+1 x 2(for link virulence) x 1.73(if linked to player) x 4.25(for max viral stacks)
virulence damage = 582 x 101 x 2 x 1.73 x 4.25 = 864,389
864,389 dmg per cast of virulence
theoretically. some of that is using stuff taken from the wiki
which we all know is horrible when it comes to math
