About Pathocyst
Pathocyst is an Infested glaive and the signature weapon of the Zealoid Prelate. It has innate Viral damage and a high status chance, and releases Maggots when it hits enemies or when it is thrown.
Main blueprint and components drop from defeating the Zealoid Prelate on Exequias, Deimos. All parts can be traded between players. Viral plus status procs make it a good pick for Infested-themed builds, and the Coda version improves on it.
Pathocyst was added with Hotfix 25.7.7 (September 2019).
Requires Mastery Rank 9.
