Raise Spectre Explained
Allows you to Raise Slain Enemies
Raise Spectre is a feature that allows you to summon slain enemies into your own minions. They function similarly to raised minions and their skills and capabilities will be the same moveset they have as regular enemies.
Raised Rares Do Not Possess Modifiers
If you manage to turn rare monsters to spectres, do know that they won't be able to carry over their modifiers as rare enemies. It's more important to determine the monster type you wish to turn to spectres.
Different Monsters Have Different Spirit Cost
Not all spectres have the same cost when summoned as a minion. Each spectre have their own respective spirit cost. Stronger and bigger monsters will naturally have higher spirit costs than weaker and smaller monsters so take your spirit limit into consideration.

Automatically Revives After a Few Seconds When Slain
As raised spectres function the same as raised skeletons, they will also naturally respawn when slain after a few seconds. No need to worry and protect your spectres and let them fight for you.
Different From the Tame Beast Companion
The Tame Beast skill that summons a companion functions almost similarly to the raise spectre skill but essential differences. The Tame Beast can only raise a single Beast-type enemy along with its modifiers while Spectres can be an army of any non-boss monster which functions similar to other summoned units.

Not exactly a permanent bond. Here's how Raise Spectre works: when you use the skill on a corpse, it binds that spectre to the skill gem itself. The gem effectively "remembers" that spectre type. You can always remove or swap the gem, so it's not a permanent connection — but that specific gem will always summon that spectre type unless overwritten. If you want to summon a different spectre type, you'd need to use a different gem or overwrite the one you're using. Hope that helps!
