Verdict
The Proboscis Cernos has an effect similar to one Nidus’ Larva ability combined with the Larva Burst Augment without the holding effects.
To simply put it, each arrow fired creates a small area that pulls everything nearby into it to finish them off with a blast, dealing damage and possibly applying Status Effects.
Regardless of what level of enemy you are facing, the damage alone from the attacks is enough to kill most enemies and when fully modded, this weapon can annihilate groups.
