Right click to remove from a socket., raised Spectres retain the basic abilities they had in life. Although magic and rare enemy corpses can be used to create Spectres, the Spectres will be the normal version of that monster type, lacking any additional modifiers they may have had. However, intrinsic mods for the normal monsters will be maintained except for some minion-raising abilities of their own. For example, Necromancers will curse enemies but not raise minions. Some monsters like Reanimators and Spectral Tacticians can summon their own minions (Zombies and Raging Spirits, respectively), but their minion's stats will only be affected by Minion-specific support gems and stats that affect allies, like Aura. Since they're not directly summoned by the player, stats from player's equipments and skill tree that modify minions will not affect them.
Support gems: Raise Spectre can gain the benefits of many different types of support gems, but not all of them may be beneficial depending on the type of Spectres raised. Minion-specific support gems will work on every type of spectre.

Corpse targeting: Holding down the corpse targeting toggle (defaults to the "A" key) makes it easier to choose a corpse to raise. Note that you must continue targeting the corpse while raising the spectre. If you let go of your corpse target button you may raise a different spectre.
Monster level: Spectres no longer have their level reduced to the level of the area they are in. Instead, the level of a Spectre is now based on the level of the Raise Spectre skill gem.

Quest reward
This item is given as a quest reward for the following quests:
As players progress through the game, there are several monsters that present interesting choices to supplement summoner and hybrid-summon builds alike. Even for a non-summoner build, a single curse-casting spectre whose AI helps them stay away can be quite useful. In practice, it's not that easy to keep a sole spectre alive without having other bodies around to shield it - this means parties and hybrid/full-summon builds.
Popular Spectres
These Spectres are used often due to their strong AI, damage, or mechanics:
The following list are a small sample of Spectres that are compatible with parties in general since they are both useful and have a relatively low graphics load for the sake of others:

The +1 curse mod is independent so having both Spectres allows both Enfeeble and Temporal Chains on monsters on top of what the player can apply.
Finding Spectres in Maps
Some guidance on Spectre corpse availability when raising Spectres in maps:
Maps have a default sub-set of mob-types that will spawn, usually related to the tileset.
Mobs like Stygian Revenants (Undead) and Undying Evangelists (Humanoid) will have better chance to be spawned with a map mod that changes the allowed mob-types.
Taking existing Spectres into a map adds them to the list of spawnable corpses via Desecrate if allowed by the map, even if there are no mobs of that type present. This seems to be related to the default sub-set above. E.g. taking Flame Sentinels into a white Temple will allow their corpses to be spawned by Desecrate. Note that mods changing the spawn-type such as Bipedal will prevent Flame Sentinel corpses from spawning. Also note that some instances will be more difficult than others to obtain the matching corpses, probably because the actual monster variety in the map tileset is higher. Sometimes this takes dozens of casts, in which case using traps and mines to multiply the number of corpses can be useful.
"Spectre bank"
Players who may wish to save certain harder-to-obtain spectres to switch between, or have a backup in case their spectres die and are unable to create their corpse again, may want to create a "spectre bank". A spectre bank is a low-level character that can be used to add your spectre's corpses to the DesecrateDesecrateSpell, AoE, Duration, Chaos Level: (1-20) Cost: (11-26) Mana Cast Time: 0.60 secRequires Level 16Desecrates the ground, summoning corpses and dealing chaos damage to all enemies in the area.

The level of monster created by the Raise Spectre Skill has been lowered, though remains unchanged at gem level 1. It now creates a level 70 monster at gem level 20 (previously 72), and level 76 monster at gem level 25 (previously 77).
Raise Spectre's most recent monster types are now saved to your character and may be Desecrated. The size of this list is capped by your Spectre limit.
Lower the life of Spectre versions of monsters that have very high life totals. Their life is being brought down to match Kitava's Herald monsters. This will affect their corpse when created with Desecrate.
Raised spectres now have a spectre level of 28 at gem level 1 (from 31), up to level of 72 at gem level 20 (from 76).
The Raised Spectre gem now grants Minions 105 additional accuracy rating at gem level 1 (from 150), up to 776 additional accuracy rating at gem level 20 (from 1109).
Your Spectres and Auras are now saved when you log out or are disconnected.
Spectres no longer have their level reduced to the level of the area they are in. Instead, the level of a Spectre is now based on the lowest of either the level of the monster they were raised from, or the maximum level allowed by the skill gem used. This is now indicated on the skill gem.
Monsters now have a large multiplicative movement speed bonus when raised as spectres (capped at the same speed as a raised zombieRaise ZombieSpell, Minion Level: (1-20) Cost: (9-28) Mana Cast Time: 0.85 secRaises a zombie minion from a corpse, which will follow you and attack enemies with a melee strike.Maximum (3-6) Raised Zombies Minions have (0-38)% more Maximum Life
