Conjure Cursed Spectre is an Expert Conjuration spell from the Necromantic Grimoire Creation. It summons a Cursed Spectre to fight for one minute. The spectre drains health and magicka from the enemies it attacks.

Spell Tome

Conjure Cursed Spectre is learned by reading Spell Tome: Conjure Cursed Spectre. Phinis Gestor sells the tome.

How It Plays

Conjure Cursed Spectre summons a ghostly spectre to fight for one minute. Its attacks drain health and magicka from the enemies it strikes. That makes it dangerous to enemy mages, who lose the magicka they need for wards and spells.

Perks and Builds

The Expert Conjuration perk halves the cost of the spell. Because the summon is undead, it gains from the necromancy perks of Conjuration. Necromancy makes it stay longer, and Dark Souls gives it 100 extra health. Summoner lets the caster place it farther away.

Origins

The spell comes with the Necromantic Grimoire Creation for the Creation Club. The official summary invites the player to "rule over the realm of life and death". The pack adds thirteen necromancy themed spells, a set of necromancer robes and a line of skeletons, spirits and other undead to conjure. Its mightiest summon is the Bone Colossus. Phinis Gestor at the College of Winterhold sells its tomes.

Cost

Conjure Cursed Spectre costs 258 magicka at a skill of zero, the same as Conjure Skeleton Warlock. The Spectre drains health and magicka from its enemies, which makes it a strong partner against enemy mages.
