New spectre - enjoy while it lasts

Some new enemies that are spawned when doing quests for masters, can have special abilities, such as summoning raging spirits:

or using their own "summon spectre" skill.

It will probably get nerfed soon, at least GGG keep the raging spirits, please !

UPDATE:

Few more videos - with two spectres:

I don't know what you were expecting, I never claimed for this to be epic or the best spectre ever.

I just let people know what is another good option for spectres. Btw that reanimator in lunaris temple is not that good, except raising few zombies and casting curses, it doesn't spam raging spirits like crazy.

The reason why it could be nerfed is because spawning spectres is bugged when you leave the location and come back it can spawn another one.
You implied it was nerf worthy. That implies it was epic. You shouldn't go around imprint implications.

That doesn't imply that it was epic, it is your definition, not mine.

Many things are nerfed in POE even those that are not epic, just some that give you a slight advantage over normal gameplay, you can find many examples if you want to read patch notes.

There's nothing to nerf here. It's not overpowered, glitchy or useful at all.
You were wrong, nothing bad about it. Move on.

1. I never said it was overpowered.
2. It is glitchy, watch the video if you don't understand what is a glitch
3. It is useful, again, video shows why it is useful. If it is not useful, explain why it is not.
Update !

They did nerf it, a little bit:

"Reduced the damage of Raging Spirits used by Necromancers in Elreon missions."

But since I know how to use them more effectively, I can go on a pretty decent kill streaks:

Wow looks good to me! May I know your links for spectre? Only one I think I can see is spell echo? Since the cast speed of raging sprits are insane!

Well I assume the summoned raging spirits are not your minions but the one of the spectre. So you can't affect them, so just boost the spectre with Faster Casting and Spell Echo.

I'm not sure if they nerf them or not, I assume they need a bit to ramp up, while spectres like Sentinels or Evangelists unleash their AoE-damage directly, but they are fairly awesome.

I'm not sure about the spectre-one, maybe they fix them. I actually hope some of these mobs come back as normal enemies. The regular Necros are just boring. They slow you down but a simple Offering destroys all the corpses they could use. Giving some of them additional skills they use instead of reanimating undead would bolster the amount of useful spectres and make them a bit more interesting as enemies.
